The reason the town of Anguillara Veneta had decided to give Bolsonaro the honorary citizenship is that his great-grandfather was supposedly born on that town (https://www.padovaoggi.it/politica/cittadinanza-onoraria-bolsonaro-anguillara-veneta-21-ottobre-2021.html).

I suspect it has more to do with the mayor and Bolsonaro both being borderline fascist but yes, that is the ostensible reason.
