【Brazil's President Says Trump Has No Right to Meddle in Other Countries】 In a recent interview, Brazilian President Lula firmly stated that U.S. President Trump has no right to meddle in the affairs of other nations:
"I never expect him to agree with me ideologically—just as I don't agree with him either—but there's no need for heads of state to be ideologically aligned. As a head of state, what matters most is understanding what our national interests are in our relationship with the United States, and what America's interests are in its relationship with us. The world should not be in this state—it is wrong. Trump has no right to wake up every morning and threaten another country. He does not possess such authority, and people didn't elect him for this purpose.
The world has not granted him this privilege; neither does the U.S. Constitution nor the Charter of the United Nations. So what's missing now? What's missing is political leadership willing to take responsibility. Someone must step forward, clearly stating that the world does not belong to any one nation—no matter how important it may be. Great powers should bear greater responsibility in maintaining global peace." #InternationalRelations
