No, M. Lula! This is not a tenable position as leader of an important member of the BRICS and a assertive opponent of the unipolarity of the world.

Condemning the Russian SMO and, moreover, look favorably on the « peace proposal » of M.Zelinsky (simple surrender of Russia) is an unforgivable wandering, coming from a leader of this stature carrying the hopes of the whole South-American continent.

Too much spike protein from his beloved covid "vaccines" must have ruined don Lula's brain...

It's pathetic that he has aligned himself with one of the worst representations that the terrorist government of the United States has had in its history.

The problem with Lula is that he's mandating injections in children in order to get access to school and healthcare. No sympathy for Lula here. Deep State actor and bad news.

Lula sold out to the western terrorists.

I follow, with attention, your writings on the foreign policy of Brazil.

It happens, however, that internal politics, in its partisan aspect, is difficult to understand, even for us Brazilians. A comparison, perhaps a little hasty, can be made with Italian party politics. Parties change names; parties merge; parties with no defined political position; politicians with ideologies different from the parties they belong to, and so on.

The PT itself is an internally divided party, today with 4 main currents.

With this you can assess the difficulty of the political scenario in Brazil.

Incidentally, the PCO has minimal representation here. No deputy elected to lower house in 2022. Don't worry about objections made to your writings by the PCO.

If internal policy is difficult, external policy is absolutely unintelligible to us. This matter is not discussed between the government and society.

Lula's statement against Russia is a fallacy.

Brazil waged a shameful war against Paraguay in the 19th century. If, by hypothesis, Paraguay began to persecute Brazilians in Paraguayan territory (there are many Brazilians who live there) and began to gather troops on the border of the two countries (which is impossible for Paraguay), the government's reactions would be little or nothing friendly.

The hysteria here would be rampant.

Brazil, Mr Korybiko, is not for amateurs...

No surprise here. Brazil still lacks the necessary strength to pursue a more independent foreign policy that is aligned to its interests with the BRICS. Lula's position must also be understood in the Latin American context; this is a subcontinent that, having been the victim of colonial aggression and the dispossession of territories, is now instinctively adverse to any military operation and that gives special priority to respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity (see the cases of Mexico, Argentina and the artificial creation of Panama and Uruguay). Brazil starts from this principle, enshrined in its Constitution, being aware that the Amazon has always been in the crosshairs of Western imperialism.
