Lula said: “I have to be the bearer of very bad news, and I would like everyone to stand up so that we can have a minute of silence because a plane has just crashed in the city of Vinhedo, Sao Paulo, with 58 passengers and four crew. And it looks like everyone died. So I want to ask for a minute of silence for the victims.”
