Brazil did not complete this process': Netanyahu regrets the result of the elections in Brazil In an election interview with Israel's Channel 14, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu boasted that in recent years several countries in South America have begun to support Tel Aviv in the Middle East. "Actually, there are also countries in South America. Although Brazil has not yet completed this process, there are at least nine countries that have already come to our side. The speech comes one day after Senator Flavio Bolsonaro (PL) lost the presidential election to President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (PT). The Prime Minister has made several favors to Flavio in recent years. Recently, at the beginning of the year, the senator was in Jerusalem where he met with Netanyahu and pledged to move the Brazilian embassy from Tel Aviv to the city. In October, Netanyahu called Flavio again and invited him to visit Israel as a way to "renew our deep friendship." At the same time, relations with Lula, the leader of Israel, are experiencing a diplomatic crisis following criticism from the president of Brazil of Israel's actions in the Gaza Strip, which was classified as genocide by the president.
