Flávio Bolsonaro visits Jair after Michelle's video

Flávio Bolsonaro visited his father, Jair Bolsonaro, this Friday (26), at the residence where the former president is under house arrest, in Brasília. The meeting took place two days after Michelle Bolsonaro released an approximately 30-minute video in which she publicly exposed friction with Flávio, generating a crisis within the family and the PL.

According to anchor Débora Bergamasco, Flávio managed, despite having a tight schedule that day, to reserve a space to visit his father. Access was possible because Flávio is listed as a lawyer among the group of professionals authorized to have contact with Jair Bolsonaro during house arrest. During the meeting, the two talked for a considerable period.

"They were together, they talked to clarify what happened, what that video was and to get guidance from Jair Bolsonaro on how to continue handling this story and what the next steps are," Bergamasco said on CNN 360º this Friday.

According to the information gathered, Flávio Bolsonaro and his pre-campaign were taken by surprise with the release of the video. He had not been warned in advance that the material would be published. It was also unclear, according to the investigation, whether Jair Bolsonaro would have given approval for Michelle to record and publish the content.

In the video published on Wednesday (26), Michelle reported in the video that she received a call from Flávio and that the two had a disagreement over issues related to political support in Ceará. The former first lady wanted to support a certain group, while Flávio and others preferred to support a different group.

The disagreement would have evolved into a more serious conflict: Michelle stated that Flávio would have been rude to her during the call, making her feel humiliated. According to her, Flávio had said that she "didn't understand politics", that "she had arrived now" and that it would be better for her to stay out of the party's decisions.
