Bras\u00edlia \u2013 After the meeting between president Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva and the Kuwaiti prime minister, Nasser Al-Sabah, today (22nd) in Bras\u00edlia, the special advisor for international affairs to the Presidency of the Republic, Marco Aur\u00e9lio Garcia, claimed that the delegation from the Arab country has expressed interest in investing in Brazil.<\/p>\n
According to him, specific possibilities \u201cwill be brought to the table during talks with businessmen.\u201d \u201cI would like to call attention to the fact that Kuwait has a program similar to the Brazilian government\u2019s Growth Acceleration Program.\u201d<\/p>\n
This year, the Arab country passed a bill for implementing a five-year investment plan that provides for US$ 25 billion to be invested each year. \u201cThus, there are plentiful possibilities of Brazilians taking part in construction work in Kuwait and of Kuwaitis investing here in Brazil, in fields such as foodstuffs and others,\u201d added Garcia.<\/p>\n
He also said that the Arab country may be a partner in works for the 2014 World Cup, because \u201clike all Gulf countries, they are very football-oriented.\u201d To Garcia, the visit of the Kuwaiti delegation of government officials and private sector representatives, headed by the prime minister, \u201cis immensely relevant from the economic, commercial and investment-related perspectives.\u201d<\/p>\n
Garcia also said that Sabah \u201copenly congratulated\u201d the Brazilian government for having signed, alongside Turkey, an agreement with Iran on the Persian country\u2019s nuclear program, even though the negotiation did not prevent the UN Security Council from imposing new sanctions on the Iranians. \u201cThey asserted that they maintain excellent relations with Iran and that they would like to see Brazil and Turkey\u2019s initiatives to actually thrive,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n
