Why It Matters

A guerra no Irã começou em fevereiro de 2026 quando os EUA, em conjunto com Israel, bombardearam o país e mataram suas lideranças políticas. Trump inicialmente previu que o conflito duraria no máximo seis semanas, mas já se passaram seis meses sem negociações para cessar-fogo.

O presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, disse nesta sexta-feira (4) que a guerra no Irã é insignificante para seu país e defendeu seu vice-presidente, J. D. Vance, que se recusou a descrever o conflito como uma guerra.

"Entendo o que ele quis dizer", afirmou Trump em conversa com jornalistas na Casa Branca. "Eu chamo de 'conflito militar', porque é fichinha pra nós. Não é lá grande coisa." Pelo menos 3.000 iranianos e 18 americanos morreram desde o início da guerra, que também custou mais de US$ 37,5 bilhões aos EUA.

Na quinta (3), Vance havia dito, quando questionado sobre o fim do conflito, "não sei" e "pergunte aos iranianos".

"Quando você pergunta 'quando isso vai acabar', você está me fazendo uma pergunta que é 'quando os iranianos vão parar de atirar em navios [no estreito de Hormuz]?'. Acho que a realidade é que eu não sei a resposta, pergunte aos iranianos", afirmou o vice de Trump na ocasião.

Quando deu início à guerra ao bombardear o Irã e matar suas lideranças políticas em conjunto com Israel, em fevereiro deste ano, Trump disse que o conflito duraria no máximo seis semanas. No último dia 28, a guerra completou seis meses sem que haja negociações em curso para novo cessar-fogo ou outro horizonte para o fim das hostilidades.

"A gente fez a Venezuela e a gente fez isso [a guerra do Irã]", disse Trump nesta sexta. "Na Venezuela, não perdemos ninguém", afirmou, fazendo referência à invasão que capturou o ditador Nicolás Maduro. "Agora, perdemos 18 homens. Na Guerra do Vietnã, perdemos 100 mil homens. Em outros conflitos, foram dezenas de milhares."

Na verdade, pouco menos de 60 mil militares americanos foram mortos no Vietnã. Pelo menos 2 milhões de civis vietnamitas foram mortos, bem como quase 1,5 milhões de soldados.

Questionado por um repórter sobre chamar a guerra de "fichinha" mesmo com a morte de 18 militares, Trump defendeu sua decisão de entrar no conflito, dizendo que o Irã não pode ter uma arma nuclear.

President of Colombia displays bodies of suspected rebels in video of military operation

Experts warn that the practice reflects a regional trend of using images of alleged criminals as a spectacle of power, evoking the legacy of 'false positives' in Colombia and raising concerns about violations of due legal process and the trivialization of state violence.

Trump advances agreement to control Venezuela's oil reserves and intensifies policy in Latin America

Donald Trump announced an agreement for the US to take direct control of more than 65 billion barrels of Venezuela's oil reserves through a partnership with Barbados-based Venezuelan company Nabep. The deal also involves $5 billion in debt to increase production to 1 million barrels per day within five years. At the same time, the Trump administration completed a year of attacks on vessels suspected of being linked to drug trafficking in the Western Hemisphere, without evidence of effectiveness, and continues to put political pressure on Latin American countries to align them with the right, excluding Brazil, which maintains a complex relationship with Washington due to tariffs, diplomatic crises and disagreements over groups such as the PCC and Comando Vermelho.
