On Tuesday, both nations issued a joint statement focusing on building a China-Brazil community with a shared future. The declaration emphasizes their commitment to a more just world, a sustainable planet, and the upholding of multilateralism.
At the invitation of Chinese President Xi Jinping, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva paid a state visit to China from April 12 to 15. During his visit, President Lula attended the fourth ministerial meeting of the China-CELAC (Community of Latin American and Caribbean States) Forum in Beijing.
The joint statement highlights the importance of cooperation between China and Brazil in various fields, including trade, technology, and environmental protection. Both countries agreed to work closely on combating climate change, promoting sustainable development, and enhancing communication on international affairs.
President Lula expressed his optimism about the strengthened partnership, stating, “Our collaboration with China opens new opportunities for growth and development for both nations. Together, we can contribute to building a more equitable and sustainable world.”
The renewed partnership between China and Brazil, two of the world’s largest developing countries, is seen as a positive move towards greater South-South cooperation. By uniting their efforts, they aim to address pressing global issues and promote a more balanced international order.
