Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva criticised the United States’ aggressive foreign policy under President Trump and called on the UN Security Council to prevent war. He condemned the US and Israel's war on Iran as the conflict triggered global oil market instability, speaking at the 17th Federative Caravan in Sao Paulo on Thursday."We are caught off guard with the United States bombing Iran [...] We cannot allow someone to think they own the world and wake up in the morning saying, 'I am going to take Greenland. I am going to take the Panama Canal. I am going to take Cuba. I am going to take Venezuela. I am going to take everything'," he said.Despite introducing a new tax exemption on diesel imports, Lula claimed that fuel prices continued to 'go up'.
