Bras\u00edlia \u2013 President Luiz In\u00e1cio Lula da Silva said Brazil has a debt to Africa that can be repaid through solidarity, technology transfer, and support for local agricultural development. According to Lula, Brazil\u2019s experience in food production should be shared as a tool to combat hunger and poverty worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u201cWe owe 350 years during which this country exploited a large part of the African people. And I\u2019m aware that Brazil cannot repay this in money, also because it cannot be measured in money. Brazil can repay through solidarity, through technology transfer, so that you can produce part of what we produce,\u201d said the president to agriculture ministers from African Union countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lula attended the opening of the 2nd Brazil-Africa Dialogue on Food Security, Fight Against Hunger, and Rural Development on Monday (19). The event runs until Thursday (22) in Bras\u00edlia, aiming to strengthen Brazil\u2019s ties with African countries and promote cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The meeting brings together more than 40 delegations from African countries, representatives of international organizations, multilateral development banks, research institutions, family farming organizations and cooperatives, and private sector entities. The program includes field visits focused on agricultural technology around Bras\u00edlia and Petrolina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
