The former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro He has denounced being a victim of political “persecution” and has announced that if he continues to be disqualified for the 2026 elections he will “throw in the towel.”
«If that continues, that disqualification, I throw in the towel, I don’t believe in Brazil anymoremy country, which I love so much, that I give my life for it. “It’s really incredible,” he told the Auri Verde radio station, visibly upset.
«If that continues, I only have one way: take care of myself. Before they kill me, or do something worse to me“said Bolsonaro, who before expressing himself in these terms warned the head of the Liberal Party, Valdemar Costa Neto, that he is the only candidate capable of uniting the right in elections.
«Another thing to make clear, I know that I am nobody in the party, I am very grateful to Valdemar, but the candidate for 2026 is Jair Messias Bolsonaro», he has settled.
Bolsonaro has rejected the judicial decisions that have disqualified him until 2030 and has questioned how that 2022 meeting with foreign diplomats, when he was then president, could have removed him from the presidential race. “What vote did I win for having met with ambassadors?” he asked himself.
The Superior Electoral Court (TSE) of Brazil disqualified Bolsonaro in June 2023 for having organized a meeting at the Alvorada Palace – the official residence – with foreign ambassadors and diplomats to attack the credibility of the Brazilian electoral system without evidence.
