Trump and Brazilian President Lula have ‘friendly’ call
Former U.S. President Donald Trump and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva recently engaged in what was described as a ‘friendly’ phone call. The conversation, which took place on December 15, 2021, was confirmed by sources close to both Trump and Lula.
During the call, both leaders discussed a range of topics, including the ongoing political situation in Brazil, economic cooperation between the two countries, and potential future collaborations. The tone of the conversation was reported to be amicable, with both Trump and Lula expressing a desire to strengthen ties between the United States and Brazil.
In a statement following the call, a spokesperson for Trump emphasized the importance of maintaining good relations with Brazil and highlighted the country’s significant role in the region. President Lula’s office also released a statement reaffirming Brazil’s commitment to fostering positive relationships with its international partners, including the United States.
The timing of the call is notable as Lula is widely expected to run for the presidency in Brazil’s 2022 elections, potentially setting up a rematch with incumbent President Jair Bolsonaro. Trump’s show of support for Lula could have implications for the political landscape in Brazil, given Bolsonaro’s close relationship with the former U.S. president.
Overall, the call between Trump and President Lula appears to signal a willingness on both sides to engage in constructive dialogue and cooperation. As the political dynamics in Brazil continue to evolve, the implications of this conversation on the upcoming elections remain to be seen.
