Isn’t Lula friends with Castro Hugo Chavez and many other Iberoamerican socialists?
Yes, Lula and the Workers Party are friends with Chavez, Castro, etc… The Workers Party have recently got closer with the CPC, since back in the 1980’s, they used to be Pro-Soviet instead of Pro-China. But that changed during the 2000’s. Lula is moderate but his party is more left than him, but they still have rightist factions inside it together with the more radical left ones.
I think Castro was one of the person that said to Lula to never give up on politics, to continue doing what he was doing because it was only a matter of time before he got elected. And Castro was right.
