Herzog said he addressed how the extremist group “openly violates” ceasefire agreements and commented on the need to put the release of innocents at the top of the international community’s agenda.
“I spoke to them about how Hamas openly violates ceasefire agreements and repeatedly called for putting the release of the hostages at the top of the international community’s agenda, along with respect for the State of Israel’s right to defend itself.” , wrote Herzog via the X network.
So far, President Lula has not made any mention of the meeting with the President of Israel on social media. He only published the meeting with the president of France, Emanuel Macron, and shared a publication by the president of Paraguay, Santiago Peña.
On the institutional network of the Brazilian government, a video was published showing President Lula in a bilateral meeting with President Isaac Herzog, without giving many details of what was discussed between them.
President Lula had been maintaining a very critical stance towards the Israeli government for its counterattack against Hamas’ acts of terrorism carried out at the beginning of last month and which led to the war that has now claimed more than 12,000 deaths. He classified the Israeli reaction as serious as what was provoked by the extremist group.
In addition to Herzog, Lula has a series of bilateral agendas scheduled for this Friday (1/12), on the sidelines of the climate conference. The PT member is expected to meet with the president of Guyana, Mohamed Irfaan Ali, and the prime ministers of the United Kingdom, Rishi Sunak, and Spain, Pedro Sanchez, as well as the UN secretary-general, António Guterres and the president of the European Commission , Ursula von der Leyen
