Argentina Issues Arrest Warrants for Pro-Bolsonaro Rioters Amid Political Tensions

Argentina’s judicial system has ordered arrest warrants for 61 Brazilians involved in the January 2023 riots in Brasília, where supporters of former president Jair Bolsonaro attempted to overthrow the new left-wing government. This move follows a request from Brazil’s supreme court and comes amid fears that many rioters sought asylum in Argentina due to the election of pro-Bolsonaro politician Javier Milei. Recent actions by the Milei administration have cancelled political asylum for convicted criminals. The situation intensifies following a recent suicide attack in Brasília, further complicating political relations between the two nations.
