President Biden and the leaders of Canada and Mexico teed up a crucial North American summit on Monday by jointly condemning the violent attacks on Brazil’s “democracy and on the peaceful transfer of power.”
Mr. Biden, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said they stand with Brazil and its democratic institutions after hundreds of supporters of former President Jair Bolsonaro ransacked offices in Brasilia.
“Our governments support the free will of the people of Brazil. We look forward to working with President Lula on delivering for our countries, the Western Hemisphere, and beyond,” the North American leaders said in a statement from the White House.
