Flávio Bolsonaro claims presidency from Miami, denies fleeing Brazil

Brazilian senator Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former president Jair Bolsonaro, arrived in Miami with family after a stop in Ecuador and declared himself the 'true elected president of Brazil,' denying he fled the country. The claim is unsubstantiated and appears to be political rhetoric, but it signals potential escalation in Brazil's political crisis. The move may embolden his base and complicate the current government's legitimacy, though it lacks legal or institutional backing.
