The president of Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva confirmed this Tuesday that his Government received “a letter” from his Argentine counterpart, Javier Milei, But he said he had not read it yet, so he did not know the subject of the letter.
Lula at a press conference, explaining that the letter had not yet reached him, since Minister Vieira “has been traveling.”
However, he stated that “after reading it,” He is “interested in the press knowing what President Milei wants to discuss with Brazil”.

The Argentine president also maintains a close relationship with former Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro, a leader of the right, whom he received with pomp in Buenos Aires during his inauguration last December.
Lula declined the invitation of the Argentine Government to attend the inauguration of
Milei and was represented on that occasion by Chancellor Vieira, who last week, within the framework of Mondino's visit, assured that both Governments are committed to developing a “positive agenda”, despite their ideological differences.

Last week, presidential sources told the Argentine newspaper La Nación that President Javier Milei requested, through Foreign Minister Diana Mondino, a meeting with his Brazilian counterpart.
These same sources assured that the meeting should take place in the coming weeks. “He's going to have to give it to him, it's not a matter of taste,” they speculated in the Casa Rosada, where they are optimistic that the meeting will take place after four months of coldness and distance between both presidents.
