On Tuesday, May 26, 2026, Senator Flávio Bolsonaro, a pre-candidate for the Presidency of the Republic, participated in a meeting with the President of the United States, Donald Trump, in the Oval Office of the White House

Accompanied by his brother Eduardo Bolsonaro and journalist Paulo Figueiredo, Flávio was received cordially in a meeting that was not on the official agenda, generating great expectation and speculation throughout the day.

Upon arriving at the White House, Flávio shared a video showing the moment of entry and mentioning a “very nice conversation,” without revealing initial details.

After the meeting, he and his team released images and reports highlighting the friendly tone of the conversation.

According to Flávio, Trump showed human concern from the beginning, asking about the situation of former President Jair Bolsonaro, his conditions, and how the family has faced the current political and legal challenges.

The senator described the gesture as remarkable and praised the cordiality of the American president.

During the meeting, Trump presented Flávio with a “coin of honor,” a traditional symbol of the United States Armed Forces, interpreted as a sign of respect and recognition for trusted allies.

Flávio highlighted the historical importance of the moment, stating that, to his knowledge, it is unprecedented for a Brazilian presidential candidate to be received in the Oval Office.

He also emphasized that the meeting occurred at Trump’s direct initiative, denying any questionable intermediation.

After the meeting, Flávio called a press conference and took the opportunity to harshly criticize the foreign policy of the Lula government.

He contrasted his visit with Lula’s recent trip to the White House, accusing the Brazilian president of having “lobbyed for drug traffickers.” In a firm tone, Flávio revealed that he asked Trump to consider the criminal factions PCC and Comando Vermelho as foreign terrorist organizations, arguing that they control territories in Brazil by force.

The statement reinforced the alignment advocated by the Bolsonaro family with values “”of combating organized crime, defending freedom, and strengthening trade relations between Brazil and the United States.

Eduardo Bolsonaro also spoke out on social media, highlighting common strategic interests between the two countries, such as strengthening trade, promoting prosperity in the Americas, and combating international crime.

He criticized the “ideological diplomacy” of the current Brazilian government and projected a future foreign policy more aligned with Western democracies should Flávio win the elections.

The episode gained immediate repercussion, marking a symbolic moment in Flávio Bolsonaro’s pre-candidacy.

The meeting reinforces personal and political ties with Trump and signals a possible strategy of rapprochement with the United States in contrast to the current federal administration.

While supporters see the meeting as an important step for Brazil’s future, the case continues to attract attention from the press and the national political scene.
