Brazil has recalled its ambassador to Buenos Aires after Argentina's president hit out at the Brazilian president, referring to him as a "thief" and a "convict".

Javier Milei made the comments on Sunday at a rally in Sao Paulo to launch the presidential campaign of right-wing candidate Flávio Bolsonaro, who is set to run in an election in October.

Without naming Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva explicitly, he referred to the Brazilian president derogatorily while speaking alongside Bolsonaro, who he went on to say was the only one who could "stop Lula".

Brazilian diplomats later said the Argentine leader had insulted Brazil's government, its people, and its democracy.
