Summary
Brazil's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva met with Brazilian ambassador to Argentina Julio Bitelli and delayed his return to Buenos Aires to assess bilateral relations, according to diplomatic sources. The move comes after criticism from Argentine President Javier Milei toward Lula. Bitelli had previously met with Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira and with Lula to discuss the conflict.
Lula stated that as long as he is president, no one from outside will interfere in Brazilian elections, and avoided directly confronting Milei, saying his relationship is that of a head of state and that he appreciates the Argentine people, so he will not exchange comments with "that thing."
