Treading the Diplomatic Tightrope: Lula’s Approach to the Israel-Palestine Conflict
During his presidential terms, Lula consistently advocated for the two-state solution, supporting the creation of an independent Palestinian state alongside Israel. He also vehemently criticized Israeli settlements in Palestinian territories, viewing them as a hindrance to peace. However, Brazil maintained diplomatic and trade relations with Israel, illustrating the intricate political and economic considerations that influence the country's foreign policy. Lula emphasized the importance of multilateralism and international diplomacy in the quest for a peaceful and equitable resolution to the conflict. The article explores how this approach reflects Lula's pursuit of autonomy and sovereignty in Brazilian foreign policy, while also highlighting challenges and criticisms faced during his diplomatic journey.
