Brazil's Lula calls Iraq, Libya invasions 'lies'

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has publicly condemned the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq and the 2011 NATO intervention in Libya as being based on lies. He questioned the justification for the Iraq war, asking 'Where are the weapons of mass destruction that Saddam Hussein supposedly had? They were never found.' Lula stated the Libya intervention was 'another lie that caused enormous damage at that moment in our history.' The comments are part of his broader critique of Western military interventions and global conflict.
