Why Lula does not seem able to mediate peace in Ukraine

– Episode of the podcast 15 Minutes analyzes Lula’s attempt to assume a leading role in discussions on peace in Ukraine

*) For some time now, President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (PT) has been trying to assume a certain role in discussions about peace in the war in Ukraine.

But, it seems, this role of mediator of peace is increasingly far from the Brazilian president.

On the trip to the G7 meeting, in Japan, Lula did not meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Unlike, for example, the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi. Will India take the lead in discussions about ending the war?

This episode of podcast 15 Minutes analyzes the subject. The guest is Diogo Schelpa columnist for Gazeta do Povo, who wrote on the subject.

In the text, Schelp highlights: “The fact is that Lula, who has made so much effort to present himself as a mediator in the conflict in Ukraine, took a chair shower from the representative of one of the main parties to the war. Zelensky did not meet with Lula , but met with Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India – with whom Ukrainian diplomacy had also requested a meeting before the start of the G7 summit.”
