In a recent interview, Flávio Bolsonaro, son of Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, has predicted that his father may return from the United States “in six months or never.” The elder Bolsonaro is currently on a state visit to the US, and his trip has been met with some controversy. Flávio made the prediction during an interview with Brazilian news outlet GloboNews. He stated that he believes his father will either come back to Brazil in six months or stay in the US indefinitely. He also commented on how long it would take for Jair to make a decision about whether or not to stay in the US, saying “I think it will take him some time before he makes up his mind.” The trip has been controversial due to its timing; many have criticized Jair for leaving Brazil at such a tumultuous time when there are still many issues facing the country. Additionally, there have been reports of protests against Jair's visit to Washington DC and other cities throughout the US. Despite this criticism, Flávio defended his father's decision to travel abroad by stating that it was important for him to meet with world leaders and discuss global issues such as trade and climate change. He also said that it was important for Brazilians living abroad to see their president making an effort to represent them on an international stage. While no official announcement has been made yet regarding when Jair will return home, Flávio's comments suggest that it could be quite some time before we see him back in Brazil - if ever at all. It remains unclear what implications this could have for both Brazil and its president going forward but one thing is certain: only time will tell what happens next in this ongoing saga.
