From Soybeans to Solar: Examining Brazil-China Relations
In less than one month, Brazil is holding one of the largest 5G auctions to date, globally. Over the last year, the question of whether Brazil would allow Chinese companies, including Huawei to participate in the country鈥檚 5G telecoms infrastructure has dominated coverage of the issue and speaks to some of the unease surrounding China鈥檚 investment in Brazil, and in Latin America more broadly. But China is Brazil鈥檚 largest trade partner and a critical source of foreign investment in commodities, energy, infrastructure, and yes鈥攖elecomms. For Brazil, a country in need of investment and economic growth, China is an important economic partner. On this episode, guest Cl谩udia Trevisan, Executive Director of the Brazil-China Business Council, joins host Anya Prusa to discuss the contours of the Brazil-China relationship.
