Flavio Bolsonaro and his family will be issued visas to the United States following his loss in Brazil's presidential election, according to a State Department official cited by Sky News.
The move is notable given the timing: Bolsonaro's own passports were cancelled by Brazilian authorities just days earlier after he failed to surrender them as ordered, as Vast View News previously reported. He remains under investigation in Brazil for alleged money laundering and had been barred from leaving the country. A US visa does not affect that domestic travel restriction.
Sky News did not report further detail on the State Department's reasoning for granting the visas. Vast View News will update this story as more information becomes available.
