Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva warned that the ongoing conflict involving Iran could cause far greater consequences than anticipated by Donald Trump. Speaking after a meeting with Trump in Washington, DC, Lula said the “invasion of Iran” would create “more damage” than the US president realises. He suggested Trump believes the conflict is effectively over, but cautioned against underestimating the long-term geopolitical and humanitarian fallout. Lula’s remarks highlighted growing international concern over escalating tensions in West Asia and reflected Brazil’s more cautious diplomatic position amid the evolving crisis. The comments came during continuing global scrutiny of US military operations and regional instability involving Iran. (PC: Conectas)
