This is the symbol of maximum humiliation in our country,” he stated before his followers.\n\nBolsonaro agreed to show the ankle monitor to the press after a meeting he held with several opposition deputies and senators in the Lower House.\n\nThe ankle bracelet is one of the precautionary measures imposed by the Supreme Court on Bolsonaro, who is accused of allegedly leading a coup plot to remain in power after his defeat in the 2022 elections.\n\nThe former president is also prohibited from leaving home between 7:00 PM and 7:00 AM and on weekends; contacting foreign ambassadors and diplomats and approaching embassies and speaking with others involved in the proceedings.\n\nMagistrate De Moraes justified the imposition of the measures in light of evidence of crimes of “coercion, obstruction” of justice and “attack on national sovereignty”, according to a Federal Police report.\n\nAccording to the judge, Bolsonaro and his son, Congressman Eduardo Bolsonaro, who has been in the United States since March, sought to “induce, instigate, and assist” Donald Trump’s government “in the practice of hostile acts against Brazil,” with the aim of “shelving” the coup case, according to the investigation.\n\n\n

The process facing the former head of state, which could condemn him to a sentence of 40 years in prison, was the main reason that led the President of the United States, Donald Trump, to announce an additional 50% tariff on Brazilian imports starting August 1st.<\/p>\n\n\nThe Republican leader claimed that Bolsonaro is the victim of a “witch hunt” and demanded that the trial “end immediately”. ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
