The trip of Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, the leader of Brazil to China was widely aimed as a chance to build up economic and trade ties between both countries. 

The leader of Brazil fortified powerful ties with Beijing to fix up the global geopolitical order, probably improving the plans of China to oppose decades of US supremacy in world affairs. 

“We don’t just have a commercial relationship with China,” Lula revealed in a meeting with Zhao Leli, the chairman of China’s National Peoples Congress standing committee. 

“We share political interest and we have interests in making a new geopolitical so that we can alter the world governance by providing more depiction to the UN.”

Brazil & China: The Prime Focus

The prime topic of Friday’s collective meeting between Lula and the President of China, Xi Jinping, was Russia’s war in Ukraine. The reason for this was both leaders look for bigger diplomatic roles in order to restore peace. 

Before this, Lula served as president from 2003 to 2010 and has always been in the favor of the foreign policy. He has spent the opening months of his presidency looking for building up relations with the United States and China, at the same time making it clear that Brazil will not be pressurized to choose sides. 

In Beijing, the liberal leader looked for supporting improvements that can give Brazil and the advancing more influence in global matters that China and the US have growingly come to lead.

He encouraged China to support Brazil’s wish to win a permanent seat on the UN security council, and on Friday said that it was required to make deeper improvements to the United Nations. 

“The United Nations requires to have the strength to harmonize the balance that the world requires for people to live in peace,” he said. 

China “identified the requirement to refinement” the UN and the Security Council to make them “more illustrative and elected,” as per a joint conclusion of the trip issued by both countries. 

The Biden Administration

The Biden Administration in February gestured its back for reforms that will give Latin America and Africa permanent roles on the Security Council, a place Brazil has sought for over a decade. 

Brazil signed an array of new economic deals with China, its biggest trading partner, at the time of the trip, adding pacts on agricultural trade, aviation, and investment. 

That included a list of trade wins collected last month when a deputation of over 100 Brazilian business leaders traveled to China as a part of Lula’s initially scheduled visit, which got extended due to a mild case of pneumonia.
