"Brazilian President Bolsonaro's Controversial Stay at Hungarian Embassy Under Investigation"
TL;DR Summary
Brazil's foreign ministry has summoned the Hungarian ambassador to explain why former president Jair Bolsonaro spent two nights at Hungary's embassy in Brasília last month as federal police investigators closed in on his allies. Bolsonaro's stay at the embassy has raised concerns that he was attempting to evade the Brazilian justice system as he faces criminal investigations. The former president's lawyers stated that he was at the embassy "to keep in touch with the authorities of a friendly country," while social media users mocked him using the hashtag 'Bolsonaro fujão' (Bolsorunaway).
