He said this in Lisbon (Portugal) amid criticism of his statements about Russia's war against Ukraine.

At the same time, the Brazilian leader, who was criticized for suggesting that Kyiv was partially "to blame" for the war, said at a press conference in Lisbon that his goal was to "find a way to bring them both (Russia and Ukraine - Ed.) to the negotiating table.
