Following his defeat in Brazil's recent presidential runoff election against incumbent Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, right-wing candidate Flavio Bolsonaro has continued to maintain that he remains the true leader of the country.
The 45-year-old Liberal Party senator lost Sunday's election and subsequently traveled out of Brazil. According to Argentina's National Directorate of Migration, Bolsonaro briefly entered Argentina on Tuesday night using valid travel documents before boarding a private flight bound for Ecuador.
Despite the electoral outcome and his departure from Brazil, Bolsonaro maintains his claim to national leadership. Further updates regarding the political situation in Brazil and international reactions are expected as the aftermath of the election unfolds.
