    Putin, Brazil President discuss Ukraine war ahead of US-Russia meet in Alaska

    A day after speaking with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed BRICS cooperation with his Brazilian counterpart, Luiz Incio Lula da Silva on Saturday, ahead of his meeting with US President Donald Trump in Alaska next week. During the call, Putin shared information about his discussions with the United States and “recent peace efforts between Russia and Ukraine.”

    The Brazilian presidential palace said the 40-minute conversation also covered cooperation within the BRICS group of emerging economies, the global political and economic landscape.

    Putin’s call with Lula follows a series of recent conversations with other foreign leaders, including those from China, India, and Central Asia, as he intensifies engagement with BRICS partners amid US tariffs targeting India and Brazil.

    Lula and Modi have both discussed expanding trade ties and exploring a joint BRICS response to Trump’s tariff moves, which include a 50 per cent levy on Brazilian goods and similar measures against Indian imports over New Delhi’s purchase of Russian oil.

    Trump justified the 50 per cent tariff on Indian imports by pointing to New Delhi’s purchase of Russian oil, while Brazil has faced steep tariffs amid Republican efforts to halt the trial of former President Jair Bolsonaro on charges of attempting a coup.
