The institution\u2019s president, ambassador Osmar Chohfi; the secretary-general and CEO, Tamer Mansour; and the regional advisor for the countries of the GCC, Iraq, and Yemen, Shaheen Ali Shaheen, visited Manama, the Bahraini capital, where they met with local business leaders this Wednesday (20).<\/p>\n

Chohfi, Mansour, and Shaheen agreed to sign a memorandum of understanding and invited their interlocutors to participate in a mission to the Brazil \u2013 Arab Countries Economic Forum, which the ABCC will hold in 2022 when it celebrates 70 years. They also agreed to organize an economic forum in the first half of next year, specifically aimed at Brazil\u2019s relations with the GCC.<\/p>\n

In this year, Brazil and Bahrain already have a trade balance of USD 1.7 billion. In the first nine months of 2021, Brazil exported USD 1.5 billion to Bahrain, mainly in ore. To a lesser extent, meat, corundum, petroleum coke, pipes, and other products were also sold to the Arab country. From January to September this year, Brazil imported only USD 200 million in products from Bahrain, primarily aluminum and oil.<\/p>\n
