Global leaders condemn assassination attempt targeting Donald Trump
Briefly

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese condemned the 'inexcusable attack' on the United States and Australia's shared democratic values. 'In Australia, as in the United States, the essence and the purpose of our democracies is that we can express our views, debate our disagreements and resolve our differences peacefully,' Albanese told reporters.
Brazil's president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, called the incident unacceptable and said the attack must be 'strongly repudiated' by all democracy defenders. His predecessor, Jair Bolsonaro, relayed his solidarity with 'the world's greatest leader of the moment.' Bolsonaro mentioned Trump was saved by a few centimeters, hinting at divine intervention.
