/ world today news/ On August 2, during a breakfast with dozens of foreign journalists, Brazilian President Lula da Silva stated that “the way in which political issues are discussed in the G-7 is outdated. The G7 should not exist after the creation of the G20.” Lula also expressed his views on the issues of the Russia-Ukraine conflict and the BRICS cooperation mechanism.

In May of this year, Lula was invited to participate in the extended session of the G-7 summit in Hiroshima and publicly indicated that “the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is no longer something that can be discussed within the framework of the G-7”. .
