“The feeling I had [ao voltar] It was that of a person who returns home after a long time and, instead of the house, only finds ruins. The same feeling as a rural worker who returns to the countryside to plant and only finds devastated land. After two years of work, we organized the house, “he said.
At least eight cameras recorded the event and speech of the president, who also reacted to the tariff of US President Donald Trump and said Brazil “respects all countries, from the poorest to the richest, but requires reciprocity” and that.
