Alexis Tsipras will meet with the president of Brazil, Ignacio Lula da Silva, this evening. The meeting between the two politicians is scheduled for 17:00 Brazilian time (22:00 Greek time).
Alexis Tsipras is the only politician who will meet personally with Lula before his inauguration, a fact indicative of the importance the new Brazilian president attaches to the role played by the SYRIZA-PS president in European developments and the formation of progressive policies .
According to the envoy of Dawn in Brasilia, Nikos Sverko, the honorable treatment that Lula himself and his associates reserve for Alexis Tsipras is also proven by the fact that the president of SYRIZA-PS received an invitation to attend the special high-level reception immediately after the inauguration of the new president in which only heads of state will be present.
Heads of state from Europe and the whole world arrive in Brasilia. Among them the President of the Federal Republic of Germany Frank Walter Steinmeier (he is accompanied by two ministers and a deputy minister responsible for environment and international economic cooperation), the King of Spain Felipe VI (accompanied to Brasilia by the Deputy Prime Minister of Spain Yolanda Diaz ) and the President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Souza (he is accompanied by the Portuguese Minister of Foreign Affairs).
Lula’s swearing-in will also bring to the capital of Brazil the presidents of the vast majority of Latin American countries, as well as top politicians and statesmen of the world’s most powerful states, as Brazil is one of the world’s strongest economies.
