The President of Brazil, Luiz Inácio “Lula” da Silva, compared this Sunday, the 18th, the Zionist genocide against the Palestinian people of the Gaza Strip with the Holocaust perpetrated by Nazi Germany against Jews in the framework of the Second World War.
“You know, what is happening in the Gaza Strip with the Palestinian people does not exist at any other historical moment. In fact, it existed when Hitler decided to kill Jews,” said the president at a press conference from Ethiopia, where he participated in the African Union Summit, the Telesur website reported.
He also pointed out that what is happening in Gaza is genocide while pointing out that it is “a war between a very prepared army and women and children.”
“We don't have governance,” said Lula, and recalled that invasions such as those of Iraq and Libya, as well as the genocide in Gaza, have not passed through the United Nations Security Council.
It reports that the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, announced that the comparison made by the Brazilian president means “crossing a red line”, while assuring that Tel Aviv is fighting for its defense.
At the same time, the Foreign Minister of the Zionist nation, Israel Katz, announced that next Monday the Brazilian ambassador will be summoned to deliver a formal protest.
The Ministry of Health of the Gaza Strip has reported that more than 28,800 people have been killed by continuous Israeli attacks since October 7.
