When President Joe Biden and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva meet in Washington Friday, the leaders are set to zero in on climate and democracy.
Brazil's democratic institutions. On a call with a senior administration official Thursday, reporters asked about Bolsonaro's status in the U.S. The official did not believe the two leaders are expected to touch on that issue but said Mr. Biden is prepared to discuss anything.
The two leaders previously met face-to-face in 2009 when Biden was vice president during Lula's first go-round as Brazil's president from 2003 to 2010. Lula later spent 580 days in prison on corruption charges but the conviction was annulled in 2021 on procedural grounds and the Supreme Court later ruled the judge had been biased. Climate was a prominent topic in two recent phone calls between the leaders since Lula's October victory, according to the White House.
"You have the environment and other stuff, but Lula sitting down with Biden is an exercise in coup-proofing Brazil's democracy. It basically comes down to that," said Oliver Stuenkel, an international relations professor at the Getulio Vargas Foundation, a university and think tank."There is still genuine concern in the Brazilian government about the armed forces, and the biggest partner in containing the armed forces is the United States.
