Note on the U.S. measure against Supreme Court justices

I stand in solidarity with the justices of the Federal Supreme Court who have been subjected by yet another arbitrary and completely unfounded measure from the United States government.

Interfering in another country's justice system is unacceptable and violates the fundamental principles of respect and sovereignty that govern relations between nations.

I am confident that no form of intimidation or threat, from whomever it may come, will compromise the core mission of our national institutions: to at all times safeguard and uphold the Democratic Rule of Law.

LUIZ INÁCIO LULA DA SILVA

President of the Federative Republic of Brazil
