'Brazil is back': Lula to visit Xi as he resets diplomatic relations with ... (The Guardian)

Meeting is part of high-profile tour as Brazil's president attempts to repair country's reputation after the Bolsonaro era.

And after that go to the US to try to get more concessions from China … “This is what Brazil wants: to go to China, to try and get more concessions from the US. Lula has insisted he is not taking sides in the rancorous tussle between Washington and Beijing. Lula will be received by both Xi and his close ally [Li Qiang](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/oct/24/who-is-li-qiang-the-man-poised-to-become-chinas-next-premier), the former Communist party chief of Shanghai who was recently named China’s new premier. The lack of US enthusiasm for Lula’s offer to help broker peace between Moscow and Kyiv also irked the Brazilians. Even if he isn’t trying to send a message [to the US], he ends up sending one,” said Spektor, who believed Brazil’s strategy was to play the world’s two largest economies off against each other. “This wouldn’t be correct. And from Xi Jinping’s point of view it also shows that even in a region like Latin America that was traditionally one of US influence, China has leverage.” He will be met with a lot of excitement.” Back then, Myers remembers chummy photographs of Lula and China’s then leader Hu Jintao being splashed over Chinese magazine covers. “So this will be [viewed as] a bit of a homecoming … [Bolsonaro insulted and alienated allies](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jun/25/brazilian-diplomats-disgusted-bolsonaro-pulverizes-foreign-policy), from [Paris](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/aug/26/macron-rebukes-bolsonaro-over-extraordinarily-rude-comments-about-wife) to [Beijing](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/19/coronavirus-bolsonaro-son-china-row).

The obvious danger for Brazil in this delicate moment is that some in Washington might interpret Lula’s long stay in China as a sign that he is favoring Beijing in the new cold war that so many in Washington seem so eager to wage. Lula’s agenda includes, for example, a visit to the headquarters of Huawei, the Chinese multinational conglomerate that has taken the lead in expanding 5G cellular coverage across much of the developing world, which the U.S. It has wanted a permanent seat on the UN security council and inclusion in the OECD for years. Lula has insisted time and again that he is a reliable democratic actor in a world besieged by authoritarian challenges. In its vague admonition of both Putin and the western alliance shoring up Ukraine as well as its overriding desire to see the war brought to a close, the Chinese position is remarkably aligned with Brazil’s. Brazilian and Chinese interests do, however, align at present in some important areas, the most important being an investment in a multipolar world order. The Brazilian president will be meeting with a Chinese head of state who just met personally with Putin to impress upon him the need for a negotiated settlement. Indeed, in an interview with a leftwing Brazilian news site, Lula praised China’s framework for peace and criticized the U.S. Lula’s visit to China will be taking place in a much different context. In a way, the trade dimension is the least interesting aspect of Lula’s trip. [said](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-65030929) could potentially be used to end the conflict that he started.

KAHN: He says Lula should use his international prestige as a defender of the environment and to get China to help fund preservation. This text may not be in its final form and may be updated or revised in the future. Thiago de Aragao, an international business consultant in Brasilia and Washington, D.C., says the idea of Lula as a peace broker is ridiculous. KAHN: Gomez's family-owned beef and pork business sends 40% of their exports to China. KAHN: Lula is also proposing being a mediator in the Ukraine War. That is at least the hope of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who pledges to try to reverse his predecessor's isolationist policies. The U.S. And as NPR South America correspondent Carrie Kahn reports, Lula is headed to China, and that makes some in the West nervous. Lula pushed his trip back a day after catching a mild pneumonia on Thursday, but the two leaders do plan to meet on Tuesday in Beijing. There are dozens of other countries that have more conditions to do that. His refusal to strongly condemn Russia's invasion or sell ammunition to Ukraine irks the West, and so does his upcoming trip to China. Oliver Stuenkel, an international relations professor at Brazil's FGV University, says Lula is just following Foreign Policy 101.

Brazil player ratings vs Morocco: Casemiro pops up with goal but ... (Goal.com)

Morocco showed why they caused so many teams trouble in Qatar as they overwhelmed a mix-and-match Brazil side.

The Selecao looked like a team in friendly mode while Morocco looked ready to compete, leading to several scuffles throughout the match. Facing off in a friendly on Saturday, Brazil were undone in a 2-1 defeat thanks to goals from Moroccan stars Sofiane Boufal and Abedelhamid Sabiri. Maybe what we all saw in Qatar wasn't a miracle.

Morocco stun Brazil for first time in friendly international (FRANCE 24)

Morocco stunned Brazil 2-1 in a friendly international on Saturday as the north African side recorded a first ever win over the five-time world champions.

Until Saturday, Morocco had suffered defeats in their only two other meetings with Brazil -- 2-0 in a 1997 friendly and 3-0 in the group stages of the 1998 World Cup in France. The Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF) hopes to be able to announce the name of its new coach before the start of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup in September. Only 10 of the 23-man squad that took Brazil to a disappointing quarter-final exit at the World Cup made the trip to Morocco for the game.

Morocco loss no disaster for Brazil team in holding pattern (ESPN)

Brazil may have slumped to their second-ever defeat to an African side but, for a team without a permanent coach, there were positives to be taken.

Brazil enjoyed the best of the first half hour, especially with occasional quick combinations of [Vinicius Junior](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/252107/Vinícius-Júnior), [Rodrygo](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/267804/Rodrygo) and [Lucas Paqueta](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/234715/Lucas-Paquetá). Teenage midfielder [Andrey Santos](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/314858/Andrey-Santos) was not overawed on debut, nor, as we have seen, was Rony. [Emerson Royal](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/246844/Emerson-Royal) were exposed. [Eder Militao](https://www.espn.com.au/soccer/player/_/id/228402/eder-militao) gave a sound performance in his first game as Brazil's senior centre-back. [Yassine Bounou](http://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/175149/Yassine-Bounou) into a gibbering wreck. [Palmeiras](/soccer/club/_/id/2029/palmeiras) coach Abel Ferreira from an erratic winger to a versatile figure capable of operating wide, in the penalty area or work back down the flanks. The shooting position did not look great, and neither was the shot, but it squirmed through Bounou and over the line. Just over three months later they went down 2-1 to [Morocco](/soccer/team?id=2869) in Tangiers -- a [2-1](/soccer/report/_/gameId/665817) debut win for the Moroccans over Brazil and a wonderful way for the Atlas Lions to enjoy the party they were hosting to celebrate reaching the semifinals in Qatar. Brazil were worth their equaliser some 25 minutes from time, even if it needed some collaboration from the Morocco keeper. The best of their team is the quick little exchanges they play from the flanks, and one such move broke the deadlock. While they wait for the next coach to step in (with [Real Madrid](/soccer/team?id=86) boss Carlo Ancelotti on top of the wishlist), Under-20 manager Ramon Meneses was in charge, almost certainly for this game only. If Morocco were at full strength, Brazil hardly have the means at the moment to define full strength; they are in a strange phase.
