The president of Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, compared this Sunday the Zionist genocide against the Palestinian people of the Gaza Strip with the Holocaust perpetrated by Nazi Germany against the Jews within the framework of World War II.
“You know, what is happening in the Gaza Strip with the Palestinian people does not exist in any other historical moment. In fact, it existed when Hitler decided to kill the Jews,” said the South American president at a press conference from Ethiopia, where he participated in the African Union Summit.
In turn, the head of state pointed out that what is happening in Gaza is a genocide while pointing out that it is “a war between a very prepared army and women and children.”
“We do not have governance,” Lula stressed, meanwhile, he 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.
For his part, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reported that the comparison made by the Brazilian president represents “crossing a red line,” while he assured that Tel Aviv is fighting for its defense.
At the same time, the Minister of Foreign Affairs 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.
