Flávio and Eduardo Bolsonaro to Attend Jerusalem Antisemitism Conference in January

Overview

• The brothers confirmed by posts on X that they will join the International Conference to Combat Antisemitism in Jerusalem on January 26–27, 2026, with Israeli organizers indicating Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to participate.
• Flávio Bolsonaro thanked Israeli minister Amichai Chikli for the invitation and wrote that he will unequivocally oppose antisemitism and defend shared democratic values.
• Eduardo Bolsonaro accepted the invitation publicly, previously visited Israel in early December to meet Netanyahu and the Knesset speaker, and is living in the United States after losing his congressional mandate under a decision by Chamber president Hugo Motta.
• The conference will be Flávio Bolsonaro’s first international engagement since launching his presidential pre-candidacy this month, a stage he is using to present himself to international conservative allies.
• Flávio told Reuters he plans further travel early next year to seek backing in the United States, Argentina, Chile, Israel, the Middle East and Europe, while he continues to encounter skepticism from Centrão parties, business figures and some religious leaders.
