According to Chohfi, the event made it clear the importance the government gives to Arab countries. \u201cThe minister really focused on the importance of both political and human relations with the Arab nations and the <strong>Arab community<\/strong> in Brazil,\u201d Chohfi told ANBA.<\/p>\n<p>The Arab countries share strong trade ties with Brazil. They are the third leading destination of Brazilian shipments. In 2022, exports from Brazil to the Arab League grossed a record-high revenue of USD 17.74 billion, up 23.06% from a year earlier, which is the best result of the historical series started in 1989. Brazil is a major food supplier to the Arab world. The region, on the other hand, supplies the Brazilian market with oil and fertilizers, both of which are essential for the national agriculture.<\/p>\n<p>As for the Arab influence in the composition of the Brazilian population, an unprecedent survey disclosed by the ABCC showed that 6% of the Brazilian population is made up from Arabs and Arab descendants. The Exclusive National Survey on Arabs in Brazil was done in 2020 by Ibope Intelig\u00eancia in partnership with H2R Pesquisas Avan\u00e7adas and revealed that 11.61 million people currently living in Brazil are part of the Arab community.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-326642\">Gustavo Magalh\u00e3es\/Foreign Ministry<\/div>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-326648\">Gustavo Magalh\u00e3es\/Foreign Ministry<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brazil\u2019s Foreign Affairs minister Mauro Vieira reaffirmed the importance of relations with Arab states in lunch offered to ambassadors and authorities of the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2324,"featured_media":326642,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[106],"tags":[2075,9673,6009,10044,9583,37925,34469,11261,40006,36387,9776,40005,11131,4936],"class_list":{"0":"post-326653","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-foreign-affairs","8":"tag-ambassadors","9":"tag-arab-brazilian-chamber-en","10":"tag-arab-community","11":"tag-arab-countries-en","12":"tag-arabs-en","13":"tag-brazils-ministry-of-foreign-affairs","14":"tag-comunidade-arabe-2-en","15":"tag-comunidade-arabe","16":"tag-dipolomats","17":"tag-homenagem-en","18":"tag-itamaraty-en","19":"tag-lunch","20":"tag-osmar-chohfi-en","21":"tag-tribute"},"wps_subtitle":"Brazil\u2019s Foreign Affairs minister Mauro Vieira reaffirmed the importance of relations with Arab states in lunch offered to ambassadors and authorities of the region.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/326653","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2324"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=326653"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/326653\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/326642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=326653"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=326653"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=326653"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
