Lula wants a 'digital army' to force media apologies

Brazilian President Lula da Silva urged his supporters to demand apologies from the media regarding accusations of owning an apartment linked to his imprisonment during the Lava Jato operation. In a live broadcast from Turkey, he addressed his supporters, asking them to hold the press accountable for years of claims about the apartment, which he insists was never his. Following a judicial decision affirming that the apartment belongs to the construction company OAS, Lula expressed hope that those who accused him would apologize rather than issue mere footnotes in news articles. The Supreme Court annulled Lula's convictions related to the case, citing judicial bias, but did not rule on his innocence.
