🇧🇷 On September 7, the Federative Republic of Brazil is celebrating Independence Day. On this day in 1822, Pedro, the son of King of Portugal Dom John VI (Joao VI), uttered the famous phrase “Liberty or death” heralding the end of the 322-year period of Portuguese influence.
A pro-independence movement began to evolve long before this memorable date. In the late XVIII century, a revolutionary named Tiradentes, the national hero of Brazil, organised a plot in Minas Gerais, aiming to establish an independent republic. Although the plans of the secret society were exposed, Tiradentes came to symbolise resistance for the sake of Brazil’s freedom.
👉 In the early XIX century, Napoleon Bonaparte’s expansion in Europe, the acquisition of independence by Spanish colonies and the Liberal Revolution in Portugal facilitated a national liberation struggle in Brazil that ended with the establishment of the Brazilian Empire, free from Portuguese influence.
Contemporary Brazil is an influential member of the international community and plays an important role in the global economy. It is actively involved in addressing multiple topical issues of the regional and global agenda.
🤝 Russia and Brazil established diplomatic relations on October 3, 1828. However, bilateral ties started to evolve as far back as 1811 when Emperor Alexander I appointed the first Russian Consul General to the city of Rio de Janeiro.
🇷🇺🇧🇷 Today, Russia-Brazil relations are developing positively in a trust-based and friendly atmosphere, marked by mutual understanding. They hinge on the principles of equitable and mutually respectful dialogue.
🇧🇷🇷🇺🇮🇳🇨🇳🇿🇦 Intensive cooperation within the BRICS association ranks among the most active aspects of Russia-Brazil collaboration.
🎉 We wholeheartedly congratulate our colleagues and friends from Brazil on their national holiday. We wish them peace, further development and prosperity.

The Sides welcomed the intensified inter-parliamentary and inter-party contacts, as well as the development of humanitarian and sports ties.
🌐 Special attention was given to the practical aspects of interaction in the international arena, particularly in light of Russia’s BRICS chairmanship and Brazil’s G20 chairmanship in 2024.

The Parties exchanged opinions on developments related to Ukraine. President Lula da Silva confirmed Brazil’s commitment to conflict resolution based on the legitimate concerns of all Parties in the security sphere and emphasised the futility of unilateral initiatives and ultimatums.
