Powell’s speech, Nvidia’s chips, Meta deal - what’s moving markets
Investing.com -- Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva is willing to engage in discussions with U.S. President Donald Trump, according to statements made Thursday by Brazil’s Foreign Relations Minister Mauro Vieira.
The potential dialogue comes in response to Trump’s announcement that he would impose a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods.
"President Lula speaks with all heads of state and government... If that’s the case, if the circumstances are given, they will speak," Vieira told CNN Brasil.
The foreign minister noted that the two leaders have not yet had an opportunity to meet. According to Vieira, this lack of interaction between Lula and Trump has been due to scheduling constraints rather than policy differences.
