Trump meets with Brazilian president/ Discussions between two leaders after

The President of the United States of America, Donald Trump, met today with the President of Brazil, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.

The meeting took place on the sidelines of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, raising hopes for improved relations after the US tariffs hit.

Lula said Sunday's meeting with Trump was excellent and added that their countries' negotiating teams would begin work immediately to address tariffs and other issues.

"We agreed that our teams will meet immediately to advance the search for solutions to the tariffs and sanctions against the Brazilian authorities," Lula said in a message on 'X' after the meeting.

Trump had linked the July tariff move, which brought tariffs on most Brazilian goods entering the US to 50 percent from 10 percent, to what he called a "witch hunt" against Bolsonaro, the far-right leader who was sentenced to 27 years in prison for a coup attempt after losing the 2022 presidential election.

However, ahead of Sunday's meeting, Trump said he could reach some agreements with Lula and expected the two countries to enjoy strong ties despite his concerns about Bolsonaro's fate. /CNA
