U.S.-Brazil trade relations heat up as analysts debate prospects for an FTA

摘要

Amid reports the Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro is eyeing a visit to Washington, DC, next month, and following high-level trade talks with the U.S. last week, analysts say they are hopeful a bilateral framework for a potential agreement between the two countries can be outlined soon. Bolsonaro, who took office on Jan. 1, is expected to visit the U.S. in mid-March and meet with President Trump, according to media reports. The White House did not respond to a request for comment.
