A supreme court judge has given Brazil’s ex-president, Jair Bolsonaro, 48 hours to explain police claims he was planning to flee to Argentina to avoid punishment for allegedly masterminding a failed coup after losing the 2022 election.

Bolsonaro’s trial for the alleged attempt to seize power is scheduled to conclude early next month. The far-right populist faces more than four decades in prison if found guilty.

Court documents made public on Wednesday night showed federal police investigators had found a draft asylum request on the ex-president’s mobile phone addressed to Argentina’s rightwing president, Javier Milei. In the undated and unsigned document, Bolsonaro claimed he was “facing imminent arrest”​ for political motives and needed “urgent” sanctuary overseas.

An Argentinian government source told the Reuters news agency that Milei’s office had not received a letter. But Brazilian police claimed the document indicated Bolsonaro had “planned to flee the country, in order to prevent the law being enforced”.

Ibrahim said that the US ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee, came to visit him at his home in the occupied West Bank, after Israeli settlers killed Mohammed’s cousin Sayfollah Musallet in July.

“He [Mike] came and sat for an hour. And you know, we got a lot of words that he’s gonna do what he can do. Nothing was done," Ibrahim told Middle East Eye from Silwad, near Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.

The decision to open another coal power plant doesn't just appear, it's a consequence of the votes of shareholders. I think this report was fascinating because it showed the differences between asset managers and how those influence choices related to the climate. I think I'm going to take a look which asset manager my pension fund uses.
