Brazil has an extradition agreement with the United States. Would love to see that shit get put to use.
That's not how extradition works. You have to give people up to the US criminal system. They don't reciprocate. They just promise not to coup your government.
Why would the US strain their relationship with Brazil over Musk? Politically, it makes sense to extradite him.
Also imma need a citation on how extradition works, I searched the wiki and couldn't find anything.
Politically I don't think it makes sense to extradite him because politics is just money nowadays. If money weren't in bed so thoroughly with politics I would agree but unfortunately here in america, bribery is legal and not looked down upon because we just decided to call it lobbying instead of bribing.
