Brazilian federal prosecutors filed a court injunction on Tuesday seeking to bar the appointment of conservative president Jair Bolsonaro’s son Eduardo as ambassador to the United States due to his lack of experience as a diplomat.
Brazil’s vice president said he didn’t see “any problems” with President Jair Bolsonaro’s possible nomination of his son as ambassador to the United States, rebutting accusations that nepotism had tainted the appointment process for a coveted diplomatic posting.
