Milei Laments Bolsonaro's Absence at Trump's Inauguration on January 20, 2025, Blames 'Lula Regime' Despite STF's Decision
Jan 19, 2025, 02:22 PM
Argentine President Javier Milei expressed regret over the absence of former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro at the inauguration of U.S. President Donald Trump on January 20, 2025, attributing it to what he called the 'Lula regime.' Milei made these comments during a gala ball in Washington on January 18, 2025, ahead of Trump's swearing-in. However, the decision to prevent Bolsonaro from attending was made by Brazilian Supreme Federal Court (STF) Minister Alexandre de Moraes, who rejected Bolsonaro's requests to have his passport returned, citing a risk of flight. Bolsonaro, who is under investigation for alleged crimes against the democratic state, was represented at the event by his wife, Michelle Bolsonaro, and his son, federal deputy Eduardo Bolsonaro.
