Presidents Joe Biden and Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva will call for improved working conditions in the US and Brazil at a joint event in New York on the sidelines of next month’s United Nations General Assembly, according to Brazilian Labor Minister Luiz Marinho.
Marinho said in an interview with Bloomberg News on Monday that the leaders “will launch a kind of manifesto calling attention to the need to improve labor relations,” that would touch on work environments and pay.
Biden and Lula, as his Brazilian counterpart is commonly known, are at odds over issues including Russia’s war in Ukraine and relations with China. But Brazilian authorities have cast the leaders as being in lockstep in their support for unions in their countries.Biden has cast himself as the most pro-union president in US history and taken steps to strengthen labor unions, a key part of his electoral coalition in the 2024 election.
