Brazilian President Lula: Brazil No Longer Depends on the United States, Seeks a New Path Toward Economic Independence

President of Brazil: Brazil has no intention of yielding to the United States and will detach itself from dependence on Washington!

Lula stated that Brazil is able to reduce its reliance on the United States and has established solid economic ties with most countries in the world, which will help the country avoid an economic crisis caused by American tariffs.

"Today's Brazil is not as dependent on the United States as before. Brazil now has extensive trade relations around the world, and from an economic perspective, we have more opportunities."

Lula emphasized that Brazil understands the value of maintaining relations with the United States, but it does not intend to yield to the U.S. government on issues that may affect national sovereignty. Threats from Washington will not force Brazil to abandon its plan to jointly seek alternative payment tools with BRICS partners.

"I will not give up my belief that we need to create an alternative currency so that we can trade with other countries."
