Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva announced that he called on US President Donald Trump to organize a meeting of the leaders of the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council at the White House to discuss global conflicts. "I already told him. you need to meet in person at the White House immediately.
We have to organize a meeting. The video conference will not work," Lula said during TV Brasil's "Cem Censura" program. The Brazilian leader criticized the actions of the permanent members of the UN Security Council, claiming that countries are acting unilaterally instead of seeking collective solutions.
According to Lula, the world has spent $2.7 trillion on weapons in recent years, but "has done nothing to fight hunger, poverty or help countries with energy shortages."
