TL;DR Summary

Brazilian President Lula is travelling to China to strengthen economic ties with the country and re-establish Brazil's role in global diplomacy. Lula will invite Chinese President Xi Jinping to Brazil for a bilateral meeting to attract Chinese investment. The trip comes after Lula's visit to Washington, DC, to meet with US President Joe Biden. Brazil-China ties were strained under former President Jair Bolsonaro, who campaigned on anti-China rhetoric. Bilateral trade between China and Brazil totalled $150bn in 2022. Lula also plans to suggest mediating peace talks between Russia and Ukraine during his meeting with Xi.
