At that event, the Argentine leader harshly criticized the Brazilian president, whom he defined as a “prisoner” and “thief,” in addition to accusing him of wasting public resources.
In that same vein, Milei warned about the “Lula risk” in the financial market, questioning the impact of the socialist policies promoted by the Brazilian government. He also expressed his support for Flávio Bolsonaro, considering him “the only candidate capable of stopping the socialist garbage” at the polls.
In response, the Brazilian government could not withstand the criticism and opted for a formal diplomatic response. The Foreign Ministry decided to summon its ambassador in Buenos Aires, Julio Bitelli, for consultations and to call in the Argentine ambassador in Brasília, Daniel Raimondi.
This is not the first time the Lula regime has insulted Milei. A few weeks ago, Guilherme Boulos, the current Secretary General of the Presidency of Brazil, referred to the Argentine president as an "idiot" after it was revealed that he would visit his country.
