It is “unacceptable” that America, Latin America and Africa are not permanent members of the Consejo de Seguridad de la UN, which the President of Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, condemned before the General Assembly of the UN.

“The permanent exclusion of America, Latin America and Africa from the Consejo de Seguridad is an ecologically unacceptable practice of colonial dominance,” denounced Lula, who noted that “he has been in conflict with the United States until the very end of the laying of the foundation stone of the XXI Seal.” “Cada vez más vaciadas y paralizadas.”

It is an hour in which it “returns to the organization the prerogatives inherent in the condition of a universal forum” and links it to the means necessary to “face the dizzying changes in the international panorama”, which generate “fear, frustration, tension and fear”, he said.

I have called for a “comprehensive revision of the Charter” of the UN, the heart of the international court, as well as the revival of the Attorney General’s paper and the reform of the Consejo de Seguridad to make it more effective and representative of the “current reality”.

“Without the country’s participation in the management of institutions such as the Fondo Monetario Internacional and the Banco Mundial, no effective change has been achieved,” he said.

“There are no illusions about the completeness of a reform like this one, which is critically interested in managing the status quo,” she said of her ancient mistakes for the reform of a national institution to take effect some 80 years ago, at the end of the Second World War.

Lula has also focused on conflicts on the planet, such as Ukraine, the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Yemen and Sudan.

Regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it said: “It is clear that the parties all have their objectives for the military tour” and that it is “crucial to resume dialogue between the parties” on the basis of the “declaration of readiness” from China and Brazil.

She also condemned Israel’s “collective occupation” of the Palestinian community in Gaza as an act of “fanatic terrorists” against “innocent Israeli civilians” on October 7, and said she had become one of the “mayors of the recent humanitarian crisis” by “propagating it peligrosamente” in Lebanon.

Lula dio la bienvenida at the beginning of their discussion in the delegation of Palestine, which first attended the meeting of the Assamblea General, who was my observer, and the President of the Authority of Palestine, Mahmud Abás, in the middle of the approval.

Asimismo arremetió with the genualdad de género y contra los acuerdos climáticos “no cumplidos”.

The Brazilian president signed a Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) earlier this year with a climate target of 1.5°C to prevent the destruction of the Amazon by 2030.

But NGOs like 350.org complain that Brazil is expanding its oil production, especially in the Amazon region, and is turning it into the world’s largest oil producer, an “unstoppable situation for a country that wants to reach the climate zone,” he says.

“The reduction of CO2 emissions in the economy and energy transmission is only a pure energy decline,” it is said at the end of the discussion.

Brazil is calling for COP 30 next year.

Lula denounced the “segunda década perdida” that has been living in America and Latin America since 2014. The region’s average increase of 0.9% during this period catapulted desires, leading to “collateral effects in political policy”.

Lula announced on Tuesday a forum with Spanish President Pedro Sánchez, who defends democracy against the attacks of extremism and disinformation.
