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

Argentina has ordered the arrest of 61 Brazilians involved in the January 2023 riots supporting former President Jair Bolsonaro, following a request from Brazil’s supreme court. These individuals face prison sentences for their actions during the violent protests aimed at overthrowing President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. This move comes as Argentina’s new president, Javier Milei, aligns with Bolsonaro and has recently revoked asylum for those convicted of crimes in their homeland. Local authorities have begun executing these warrants, further complicating the diplomatic situation between the two nations.
