Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva will meet with his U.S. counterpart, Joe Biden, on February 10 during a visit to the White House, government sources have confirmed.
The United States will thus become the third country visited by Lula after taking office on January 1, since he plans to visit Argentina next week to attend the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC). The president will also travel to Uruguay, according to G1 television channel.
In December, the White House sent a delegation to Brazil to deliver to Lula an invitation from Biden to travel to Washington «as soon as possible». The two leaders have already exchanged phone calls in recent weeks, as have their corresponding foreign ministers, Mauro Vieira and Antony Blinken.
