In an interview published by Spanish newspaper El País, Lula said global leaders must act responsibly in maintaining international peace and stability, warning against the use of threats in foreign policy.
“Trump has no right to wake up in the morning and threaten a country,” he said, referencing recent remarks by the US president concerning Iran and the Strait of Hormuz.
Lula argued that authority over war and foreign policy is shared within the US political system and should not be exercised unilaterally.
The Brazilian leader also renewed his call for reforms of the United Nations Security Council, including the expansion of permanent membership and removal of veto powers held by current members.
He said the global system needs urgent restructuring to remain credible, warning that failure to reform could deepen international tensions.
Lula is expected to continue discussions on global governance during his upcoming visit to Spain, where he will meet Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and attend a forum of progressive leaders in Barcelona.
