His lawyer, Felipe Alexandre, reported that Brazil’s former president Jair Bolsonaro may “eventually” request authorization to stay for a “more permanent” period in the United States, where he has been since late last year.
“I think Florida will be his temporary home away from home,” Alexandre told the British newspaper Financial Times, according to Brazilian newspaper O Globo.

“Now, with this situation, I think (Bolsonaro) needs some stability,” the lawyer said, referring to the attack by supporters of the former president on the headquarters of the Public Powers in Brasilia on the 8th of this month. “
Alexander revealed that he advised Bolsonaro not to leave the US territory while authorization to remain there is being processed.

Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, one of the former president’s sons, warned this weekend that his father’s return to Brazil “could happen tomorrow, in six months or never.”
Bolsonaro arrived in Florida in the southern United States on 30 December, two days before the end of his term, to avoid personally transferring command attributes to his successor, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

A few days later, a controversy arose regarding the former president’s status in the United States, as it was assumed that the official passport with which he had entered had expired when his term expired.
However, according to the Financial Times and O Globo, sources close to the former president assure that he requested and received a tourist visa, which allows him to stay on US soil for six months.
That visa could be processed at the US embassy in Brasilia by Bolsonaro’s wife Michelle, who returned to her country last week, according to newspapers.

A few days ago, more than 70 US and Brazilian congressmen in a joint statement condemned the attack in Brasilia by the “democratic extreme right” and compared it to the attack on the Capitol on January 6, 2021.
In this context, the governments of Brazil and the US had confirmed a few days ago that Lula would meet President Joe Biden at the White House on February 10.
