UNGA 2023: Lula urges protection for the Amazon rainforest
Lula has said his country is returning to democracy and the international fold after the departure of his far-right predecessor Jair Bolsonaro. Lula added that Brazil is embracing multilateralism as it pushes for a fair and sustainable future. “Brazil is back,” he said. The Brazilian president has hailed a new push by countries in the Amazon region to protect the critical rainforest. Lula da Silva has rejected the prosecution of whistle-blower and WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who is fighting extradition from the United Kingdom to the United States, where he is facing espionage charges. “Inequalities need to inspire outrage – outrage over hunger, poverty, war and disrespect for human beings. Moved by the power of outrage, we may act willingly and unwaveringly in fighting inequality and effectively transforming the world around us,” the Brazilian president said in the conclusion of his speech.
