[UN 24 Reuters]-Brazilian President Borsonaro speaks at the United Nations on the 24th, and the media is accused of "lieing" over the Amazon fire. He was accused of being interested in nature and mineral resources.

The President, who was absent from the previous day's climate action summit, used the UN General Assembly speech to reemphasize the country's sovereignty, which accounts for over 60% of the Amazon.

The president argues that "Amazon is part of the World Heritage Site, and that, as scientists affirm, Japan's rainforest is the Earth's lungs." During this period of the year, dry weather was prone to spontaneous fires and illegal arson fires, and the rainforest was not burned down "as the liar media said."

The president plans to develop Amazon, including road construction and agricultural and industrial expansion to indigenous settlements.
