Brazil’s President Lula da Silva arrives in UAE
The South American leader is on an official visit to the Emirates.
The UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed received Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva in Abu Dhabi after he arrived for an official visit.
The Brazilian President was welcomed by Sheikh Mohamed at Qasr Al Watan, where he attended an official reception.
President Lula’s convoy was accompanied by a guard of honour consisting of riders on horseback. The official reception ceremony included a performance of the national anthem of Brazil, a 21-gun artillery salute, and a flypast by the UAE Air Force aerobatics team “Al Fursan”, trailing smoke in the colours of the Brazilian flag, the Wam news agency reported.
He was accompanied by his wife, the Brazilian First Lady Rosangela Lula da Silva.
Earlier on Saturday at his arrival at the Presidential Flight in Abu Dhabi, President Lula was received by Suhail Al Mazrouei, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure and head of the UAE delegation accompanying the Brazilian President, and a number of other officials, Wam said.
It is his first visit to an Arab country since beginning his third term in office.
The UAE is one of Brazil’s largest trading partners in the Middle East. In 2022, bilateral trade rose to $5.7 billion, a 74 per cent increase in comparison to 2021. Agribusiness accounts for almost 60 per cent of Brazilian exports to the UAE.
The UAE will host Cop28 UN climate summit later this year at Expo City Dubai. Brazil has bid to host Cop30 in 2025.
This year’s event is expected to be attended by about 70,000 participants, including heads of state, government officials, leaders of global industrial sectors, representatives of the private sector and climate experts.
