Diplomatic scandal! Former Brazilian President Bolsonaro was hiding in the Hungarian Embassy
On the 8th of February, Brazilian authorities confiscated the passport of former President Jair Bolsonaro and apprehended two of his former aides on charges of plotting a coup following Bolsonaro’s electoral defeat. Seeking refuge, Bolsonaro spent two days at the Hungarian embassy, where he met up with the Hungarian ambassador.
The New York Times recently revealed that four days after the initial incident, former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro was captured on video waiting outside the Hungarian Embassy’s entrance in Brazil, with leaked CCTV footage showing his presence.
Bolsonaro spent two days inside the embassy where he met the Hungarian ambassador, taking advantage of the diplomatic immunity that prevented his arrest on foreign embassy grounds. Jair Bolsonaro’s stay at the embassy, which is located near the presidential palace he formerly held, was seen as an attempt to use his friendship with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán to avoid facing the ongoing criminal investigations in his home country.
On the evening of Bolsonaro’s visit to Hungary’s embassy, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán tweeted a photo of himself shaking hands with Bolsonaro and offered his support with the following caption:
An honest patriot. Keep on fighting, Mr. President! @jairbolsonaro pic.twitter.com/5mmmIAGGC3
— Orbán Viktor (@PM_ViktorOrban) February 8, 2024
The footage shows Jair Bolsonaro’s car being escorted into the embassy by Miklós Halmai, the Hungarian Ambassador to Brazil and later depicts Bolsonaro and his security guards carrying bed linen into the building. Ultimately, he departed from the Hungarian Embassy on the 14th of February.
Jair Bolsonaro has a history of considering escape options; for instance, the day before his removal from the presidency of Brazil, he flew to Florida and stayed there for three months – according to 24.hu.
Statements and reactions
The Brazilian Foreign Ministry has summoned the Hungarian Ambassador Miklós Halmai to explain the circumstances surrounding Jair Bolsonaro’s two-night stay at Hungary’s embassy in Brazil last month, particularly in light of ongoing federal police investigations involving some of his closest allies.
Jair Bolsonaro provided some insights into his activities on Monday, stating the following:
I won’t deny that I’ve been to the embassy… I won’t tell you where else I’ve been. I am friends with some heads of state who are concerned about me. I talk to them about matters of interest to our country. Period. The rest is speculation.
The former president’s legal team stated in a press release that Jair Bolsonaro had visited the embassy “to engage with the authorities of a friendly nation” – according to the Guardian.
Jair Bolsonaro faces a range of accusations including attempting to undermine the rule of law, engaging in political violence and conspiring against the government. Additionally, he has been implicated in selling monuments abroad and falsifying vaccine data.

Where else would a coup plotting criminal go but the Hungarian embassy?
Brazil’s foreign ministry summoned the Hungarian ambassador for a meeting today and reports are that during that 20 minute meeting the Hungarian ambassador had nothing to say because what Hungary did is simply not defensible.
Mr. Bolsonaro sounds like just the type of friend our Politicians would be likely to embrace!
Mr. Bolsonaro allegedly attempted to sell expensive diplomatic gifts (which are clearly state property in Brazil – and most other jurisdictions). Then, there is his possible involvement in the Jan. 8 riot in Brazil’s capital, a scheme to falsify his Covid-19 vaccine records, an alleged plot to bug a Supreme Court justice; and accusations of ordering police to pull over his rival’s voters on Election Day. Then there is the story of the hacker who testified to Brazil’s Congress that Mr. Bolsonaro urged him to hack into the country’s election system to show it was unsafe ahead of the 2022 presidential election.
Stand up guy. Invite him for tea or a stay over with the Ambassador. Makes perfect sense!
The current brazilian government, led by corrupt and incompetent people, are pathetically failing, so they need to eliminate any kind of opponent.
The same court that set free from prison the current president, is itself judging, conducting investigation accusing and arresting.
There are no legal process against the former president to justify any arrest, just inquiry.
Criminals always know where is the right place for them to hide.
Hungary – the Orban – Fidesz Government, they MINGLE.
There MINGLING is to either through propaganda commence the RUMOR trail, or show there “True Colours” of support for the country, place or environment – to which they MINGLE.
Hungary – the Orban – Fidesz Government besides being Mingler’s they are DABBLERS.
Orban – dabbles plays with, plays off individuals and country’s – that is his way or practice of INTERFERENCE into the Political “arena” of “other” country’s.
PRESSURIZATION – grows on Victor Mihaly Orban and the Orban – Fidesz Political Party.
Anonymous, is a coward person, or, is a person paid to promote something, and is a coward, evil human crap
Mario, must be a functional illiterate former pupil of a communist educator known among Interpol people as Paulo Coelho.
First of all, the Brazilian former president, Mr Jair Bolsonaro, is a free man. Quite the opposite of the actual president Lula da Silva, a usual criminal condemned by 14 federal judges, by unanimity all of them, appointed by Lula da Silva himself while he was a president. All the above are facts printed in ALL Brazilian and worldwide newspapers.
Since Lula da Silva was re-elected by a documented and unproved process of counting votes, secretly, and printed in several top newspapers all over the planet. His party, PT, was in a “strange” and criminal partnership with the Brazilian Supreme Court, where all, except two, of the eleven Federal Judges, were appointed by the communist party called PT (Partido dos Trabalhadores, an extreme left-wing party under the control of China and Russia.
Mr Bolsonaro is a Brazilian citizen as well as an Italian one as well. He could leave Brazil easily at any time via any other country bordering Brazil. He was invited by the Hungary Ambassador, to discuss subjects of common countries interest, AND LEFT the Embassy by his own will! He has no felony accounts against him by any Brazilian tribunal. It’s just a communist political persecution. You don’t have to believe in my words, just follow the right-wing and Christian newspapers. That’s why several Brazilian senators and members of the House of Commons, in Brazil, went to a meeting with USA counterparts as well as the International Court of Justice and the International Human Rights organization.

The main point here is that the Hungarian government, probably, staggered, I suppose, is the fact that: HOW A GUEST, OR IMMAGES, FROM INSIDE ITS EMBASSY, ended in an American newspaper: The New York Times ?????????
This is what the Hungarian government calls: SECURITY???
How for god’s sake, a Brazilian Correspondent of an American left-wing newspaper, managed to get inside the security Camera room of an Embassy, get a copy of the embassy’s secret information, and leave the premises?
Hello, Hungarian secret service!!!!!!!!
