Brazil's Lula assails Trump threats, says leaders should seek respect

MADRID, April 16 (Reuters) - Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva delivered a blunt critique of U.S. President Donald Trump in an interview with Spanish newspaper El Pais published on Thursday, saying world leaders should seek respect rather than rule by fear."Trump has no right to wake up in the morning and threaten a country," Lula told El Pais, referring to the president's public threat on April 7 to wipe out Iranian civilisation as part of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran. "He wasn't elected for that, and his Constitution doesn't allow it."
