Investing.com -- Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio have agreed to arrange a meeting between teams from both countries in Washington to discuss trade issues, Brazil’s government announced Thursday.
The agreement came during a phone call between the two officials earlier in the day, during which Rubio proposed an in-person meeting with Vieira to address priority issues in the U.S.-Brazil relationship.
Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva indicated that Rubio’s call was a follow-up to Lula’s conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday. Speaking to local radio station Piata FM, Lula expressed surprise about the outcome of his discussion with Trump, during which the Brazilian leader had requested the removal of tariffs on Brazilian exports to the United States.
