Bolsonaro Apologizes to Moraes Amidst STF Coup Attempt Investigation

Brazil's Supreme Court heard testimony from former president Jair Bolsonaro on Tuesday, June 10th, 2025, as part of an ongoing investigation into a 2022 coup attempt. During the interrogation, led by Justice Alexandre de Moraes, Bolsonaro was questioned about allegations he made concerning bribery within the STF. \"Quais eram os indícios que o senhor tinha que nós estaríamos levando U$S 50 milhões, U$S 30 milhões?" Moraes asked. Bolsonaro responded, \"Não tem indícios nenhum, senhor ministro. Um desabafo, uma retórica que eu usei." Bolsonaro's apology is a significant development in the case, and further investigation is required to determine the full extent of the allegations. The event underscores the ongoing political tensions in Brazil and the importance of transparency and accountability in the country's judicial system. The STF's continued investigation is crucial for upholding democratic principles and ensuring justice.
