Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva delivered his tenth address to the United Nations General Assembly, describing the current moment as the most critical in the institution's history and stating that the UN's credibility has never been lower due to what he characterised as the Security Council's inaction and an inherent flaw in the veto system established in 1946. Lula directly accused Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government of perpetrating genocide against Palestinian women and children in Gaza, while also acknowledging that Israeli civilians paid the price for what he called the radicalism and intolerance of Hamas's actions, and defended UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese against what he described as attempts to silence her. On regional affairs, Lula stated that Brazil does not fit in anyone's backyard, criticising renewed hegemonic tendencies from the region's dominant military power, condemned the United States embargo on Cuba as collective punishmen
