Lula government already admits high chance of failure of agreement with EU in 2023
The Brazilian government acknowledges a high likelihood of failure in finalizing a trade agreement with the European Union by the end of 2023. The transition of power in Argentina to Javier Milei and opposition from French President Emmanuel Macron are significant obstacles. Despite some flexibility from the EU, concerns remain about the impact on Brazil's industrial policy and the New PAC. The upcoming European Parliament elections in 2024 further complicate the prospects of reaching an agreement.

Lobbyists from banks, industries, and transportation are behind the amendments to the Labor Reform
Business lobbyists from banking, industry, and transportation sectors are the true authors behind one in three proposed amendments by lawmakers in the discussion of Brazil's Labor Reform. These amendments, which defend employer interests without worker consensus, were submitted by 20 deputies as if they were crafted by their offices. Over half of these proposals were incorporated into the substitute text supported by the Palácio do Planalto and are set to be voted on by the Chamber of Deputies. The general tone of the reform is that agreements between employers and employees will prevail over the law, with the original government text being significantly altered to include these lobbyist-drafted amendments. The article also discusses the informal lobbying practices in Brazil, the potential conflicts of interest among lawmakers, and the broader implications for transparency and the legislative process.

His economic policies aim at privatization and tax reforms, though concerns about Chinese investments persist. Bolsonaro's environmental stance includes deregulation and potential harm to the Amazon. He seeks closer ties with the US, potentially straining relations with China. His administration faces significant opposition and challenges in fulfilling its promises.

Government needs to have 'judgment' in the final stretch of the reform's progress, says Marcelo Ramos in Ceará
Marcelo Ramos, president of the Special Commission discussing pension reform in the Chamber of Deputies, visited the Legislative Assembly of Ceará, emphasizing the need for the government to act sensibly in the final stages of the reform's progress. He highlighted the importance of the reform for fiscal adjustment and expects the Commission to approve the text by the end of the next month, contingent on the rapporteur Samuel Moreira presenting his report and the government's support. Ramos suggested changes to the reform, such as excluding alterations to rural retirement, teachers' pension systems, and the Continuous Cash Benefit (BPC). State Planning Secretary Mauro Filho agreed on the necessity of the reform but also advocated for modifications, noting the state's own reform efforts.

Lula's trip to China confirmed for April 11
The Palácio do Planalto has confirmed that President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's state visit to China will take place on April 11. Originally scheduled for this week, the trip was postponed due to Lula's mild pneumonia diagnosis. Lula announced his full recovery and plans to resume work next week. The visit will include meetings with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Premier Li Qiang, and National People's Congress Chairman Zhao Leji in Beijing, as well as engagements in Shanghai. This will be Lula's first trip to an Asian country in his third term, following visits to Argentina and the United States. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expects at least 20 trade agreements to be signed during the visit. Lula is also scheduled to visit Portugal in April and attend the G7 Summit in Japan in May.

Economists see risk of 'creative accounting' in government fund for high school
The Brazilian government's proposal to provide financial incentives for high school students has raised concerns among economists about potential 'creative accounting' practices. The initiative, led by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, aims to reduce dropout rates by offering monthly stipends and savings accounts to low-income students. However, critics argue that the funding mechanism, which involves contributions from state-owned enterprises and private entities, could bypass fiscal limits and worsen the public deficit. The Senate has approved a related bill, but opposition leaders and economic experts have expressed skepticism about the program's transparency and fiscal impact.
