EPISODE: Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov Visits Brazil
GUEST: Camila Escalante, Kawsachun News-Brazil
BACKGROUND:
Russia’s minister of foreign affairs, Sergei Lavrov, arrived in Brasília on Monday for talks with his Brazilian counterpart, Mauro Vieira, in the latest of a series of bilateral encounters likely to ruffle the US.
Lavrov arrived just as Brazil’s president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, returned from a state visit to China, and both missions are part of a diplomatic reset Lula has pursued since returning to power this year, as he strives to recover Brazil’s international reputation after his predecessor, Jair Bolsonaro, dismantled Brazil’s established tradition of cooperation. For Brazil, that means rebuilding and maintaining ties with all partners, regardless of geopolitical tensions elsewhere.
Lavrov and Vieira said their talks had also focused on energy and trade. About a quarter of agricultural powerhouse Brazil's fertilizer imports come from Russia, while the two countries engaged in a record $9.8 billion in bilateral trade last year.
Brazil was Lavrov's first stop on a weeklong Latin American tour that will also include Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba.
