00:00Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva harshly criticized U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio,
00:06describing him as a Bolsonaro supporter and a frustrated Latin American.
00:19Oh, but he has a citizen who does not like Brazil, who does not like Latin America,
00:25and he's a Bolsonaro supporter. He's Secretary of State Marco Rubio.
00:30He doesn't like it. I told Trump this. That guy doesn't like Brazil. He doesn't like it.
00:37He's an anti-Latin American or a frustrated Latin American because his grandfather left Cuba.
00:43His great-grandfather is from there. He never lived in Cuba, but he left.
00:50He's a Cuban-American from Miami, so he hates Cuba, he hates Colombia, he hates Brazil,
00:57and he does things different from what we discussed with Trump last week.
01:04I was taking it easy and saw in the newspapers that the U.S. would impose a new tariff on
01:10Brazil,
01:10and then I waited. There wasn't a phone call, but it came through the press as if it were a
01:15tariff hike.
01:16The tariff against us went up another 2.5 percent.
01:28Also, a Brazilian President Luis Inácio Lula da Silva reiterated that his country is willing to welcome foreign investment
01:34on equal terms with open arms.
01:40Brazil wants to work with everyone on an equal footing.
01:44Anyone who wants to come and invest in Brazil, build factories in Brazil, exploit, process, and bring technology,
01:53Alckman and I will be at the airport to welcome them with open arms.
01:57What we don't want is for Brazil to become a mere exporter of wealth that isn't ours.
02:02It belongs to the people.
02:04So we have to take advantage of that wealth to create a fund to leave to the people,
02:09to care for the poor who don't even know what that is,
02:12but they have a right to it because it belongs to them.
02:15So we want to do this.
02:17I told Trump that anyone who wants to come will be our guest.
02:21I handed over all the documents and I am now waiting for a response
02:26and every week we call to schedule a meeting.
