Brazilian President Lula Traveling To China This Sunday To Meet President Xi In Beijing

Brazilian President Lula and Chinese President Xi  

The Guardian: ‘Brazil is back’: Lula to visit Xi as he resets diplomatic relations with China 

Meeting is part of high-profile tour as Brazil’s president attempts to repair country’s reputation after the Bolsonaro era 

One of them wants the world to know his country is battling its way back to its former glory after three years of zero-Covid lockdowns and a long and humiliating history of foreign exploitation. 

The other wants to signal his country is bouncing back from four chaotic years under a far-right populist who took a sledgehammer to its place in the world. 

The two revival-seeking politicians – China’s leader, Xi Jinping, and the Brazilian president, Luiz InĂ¡cio Lula da Silva – will meet in Beijing next week during a high-profile tour that is part of the latter’s efforts to repair his country’s overseas reputation after Jair Bolsonaro’s era of antagonism and isolation.
