Brasilia – As well as the luncheon in homage to the South American and Arab Foreign Ministers, hosted by Foreign Relations Ministry, and the meeting for these ministers at 3:30 p.m., when topics of the summit declaration will be discussed, the Brazilian Foreign Relations Minister Celso Amorim has an ample agenda of meetings with his Arab and South American counterparts.
During the morning, the minister got together with the ministers from Algeria, Egypt and Qatar. In the afternoon, Amorim should meet with the Foreign Relations ministers from Tunisia, Suriname and Sudan, according to information from the Itamaraty, the Brazilian foreign office. The meetings do not have a fixed agenda, however Amorim will probably discuss themes related to specific interests of these countries and their relations with Brazil.
