“I regret that President Macron seeks to use the internal affairs of Brazil and neighboring countries for his own political purposes,” Bolsonara wrote on his microblog on Twitter.
He stated that the proposal by the French president “to discuss this issue at the summit without the participation of Brazil and other countries in the region resembles a colonial mentality inappropriate in the 21st century.”
Macron previously stated that fires in the Amazon are an international crisis, and G7 countries need to discuss this issue.
