Flávio Bolsonaro meets El Salvador's Minister of Justice in São Paulo

Flávio Bolsonaro, the presidential candidate from PL, met on the morning of this Sunday (30) with Gustavo Villatoro, Minister of Justice and Public Security of El Salvador, at a hotel in downtown São Paulo. During the meeting, which took place amid growing attention to public safety in Brazil, Flávio emphasized the need to increase the number of incarcerations in the country.

According to reports, the senator criticized the current state of the Brazilian prison system, stating that 'there are too few people imprisoned in Brazil; there should be more.' This statement comes against the backdrop of ongoing debates regarding security policies and high crime rates in Brazil.

Flávio Bolsonaro's response, which downplayed the issue of human rights violations in El Salvador under President Nayib Bukele's administration, was also noted, as Villatoro is linked to a government that has implemented controversial measures in the fight against crime.

The meeting took place in an environment focused on discussions about public safety strategies, and, according to sources, there was an emphasis on sharing experiences between the two politicians.

The specifics of what was formulated during the meeting regarding public safety policies and the expected impact in Brazil were not detailed.
