Brazil’s Lula says Mercosur, Canada should advance in trade deal talks
by Reuters Apr 29, 2025
Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said on Tuesday he is interested in advancing talks for a trade deal between South America's Mercosur bloc and Canada in order to "diversify and expand our exchange".
Lula in a post on X congratulated Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney as he completed a comeback victory for the governing Liberals in Monday's election.
Mercosur - which includes Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay - has had negotiation rounds for a trade deal with Canada in the past.
