Brazil's Lula Warns Against Foreign Interference Ahead of Election, Criticizes Trump
Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva criticized foreign interference in Brazil's upcoming election, emphasizing the country's sovereign electoral process and warning against disinformation campaigns.

Lula also expressed disagreement with former US President Donald Trump's governing style, describing it as authoritarian. He called for international cooperation to address crime rather than intervention and urged respect for Brazil's electoral autonomy ahead of the October vote.
