PT member compared the government following the impeachment of former president Dilma Rousseff with Israel’s attacks on Palestine
The president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (PT) compared the governments following the impeachment of former president Dilma Rousseff to what the Prime Minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, is doing in Palestine.
“This country, I would say, what they have done in recent years, after Dilma’s impeachment, is what Netanyahu is doing in Gaza, there in Palestine. What they did to this country was a bit like that.”he said. The statement was made during the celebration of 10 years of activity at the Lagoa do Sino campus of UFSCar (Federal University of São Carlos).

According to the Chief Executive, everything in the world is a political decision. He said that Russia’s war against Ukraine is part of the political game. “If you invade Ukraine, it’s a political decision, if you leave, it’s a political decision, if you shoot at the Palestinians, it’s a political decision, if you don’t shoot, it’s a political decision”he said.
The PT member cited the Israeli attack on Khan Yunis, in the south of the Gaza Strip, on Monday (22 July), which left 70 people dead and at least 200 injured, and also the attack on 14 July, which left 90 dead and around 300 injured.
“And who is dying? Is it soldiers? Is it terrorists? No. It is women and children who are victims of attacks every single day by a government that has already been condemned by the International Court of Justice.”he declared.
