Brasília: In a rare honor and sign of close ties between India and Brazil, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro attended India’s Republic Day celebrations organized by the Indian embassy in the national capital Brasilia and called India a ‘brotherly nation’.
Bolsonaro expressed, “Brazil and India have increasingly drawn closer and closer… on this occasion as we celebrate India’s Republic Day, kindly convey Mr. Ambassador to PM Modi, who I see a close friend, kindly send my best wishes to prosperous India.”
Recalling how India assisted with inputs during the COVID-19 outbreak, Bolsonaro pointed out, “India has also lived up to all of the agreement and the commitments that were undertaken towards Brazil in the course of 2020.”
Thank…
