Flavio Bolsonaro withdraws ‘price’ comment on 2026 election

Former President Jair Bolsonaro has endorsed his son, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, for Brazil’s 2026 presidential race, despite the latter’s controversial comments about potentially withdrawing for the right “price.” Flavio reaffirmed his commitment to the candidacy after facing criticism and emphasized that his campaign is irreversible. Jair, currently imprisoned for attempting to overturn the 2022 election results, remains a significant figure in Flavio’s campaign, which has garnered support from other right-wing leaders. Critics question Flavio’s sincerity following his earlier remarks, but he insists his main goal is his father’s freedom and candidacy.
