The Secretariat of Social Communications (Secom) confirmed that the parallel business agenda of President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s trip to China should be maintained, even with the delay of the chief executive’s trip to the Asian country. For example, Agriculture Minister Carlos Favaro and Tatiana Rosito from the Secretariat of International Affairs are already in China.

Since the trip usually takes more than a day, several businessmen, advisers and ministers left the country in advance. However, after the president confirmed the postponement of the trip, without setting a new date, members of the presidential entourage who were still in Brazil canceled the trip.
