Ronaldo Caiado denies support for Flávio Bolsonaro in the first round of 2026

The PSD candidate for President, Ronaldo Caiado, denied this Saturday (3) that he will support Flávio Bolsonaro in the first round of the 2026 elections. He stated that the possibility of giving up his own candidacy was 'never' considered and that the word 'give up' is not part of his political trajectory.

"It's a fight that speaks for millions of people, not only in Goiás, but in Brazil. This position has never even been considered with me. The word resignation, the word capitulate, the word give up, it doesn't exist in Caiado's life trajectory, who has been fighting for 40 years. So it doesn't exist and this position has never even been considered with me", stated the candidate.

The answer was given after Caiado, who has a schedule in Goiás, was asked about requests made by members of Flávio Bolsonaro's campaign for him to support him in the first round of the elections. The candidate also stated that he did not receive any request in this regard.

"Look, firstly, he didn't say anything to me in that sense. Because everyone respects me, they know about my life path, and our fight means here not a fight for Ronaldo Caiado. It's a fight that speaks for millions of people, right? Not just in Goiás, but in Brazil."
