Overview

• Lula is slated to deliver Brazil’s opening address on Tuesday, with advisers saying he will defend multilateral rules, back the STF and condemn unilateral tariffs and sanctions.
• U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the United States will have announcements "probably next week" on additional measures following the Bolsonaro ruling.
• No meeting between Lula and President Donald Trump is scheduled, and Brazil’s Foreign Ministry says no bilateral with Rubio or Chancellor Mauro Vieira is planned.
• The president’s agenda includes a high-level UN conference on Palestine on Monday and a climate push tied to COP30, including efforts to build support for the Tropical Forests Fund.
• Brazil’s delegation is smaller due to U.S. visa restrictions, and protesters greeted Lula on his arrival in New York.
