Bolsonaro backs his son as candidate for 2026 election

 Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro stated that he would back his oldest son, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro (pictured), in the 2026 presidential contest, CNN Brasil reported Friday. The report was later verified by a member of his party.

According to CNN Brasil, which cited anonymous sources close to the Bolsonaro family, the right-wing politician told his son of this choice while visiting federal police offices in Brasilia, where he is currently serving a sentence for organizing a coup.

"Confirmed. Flavio told me that our Captain ratified his candidacy," Valdemar Costa Neto, the head of the former president's Liberal Party, said in a text message. "Bolsonaro has spoken, it's settled. We're in this together."
