After participating in Brazil's Carnival festivities, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is set to travel to India, where he aims to establish strategic partnerships regarding critical minerals and artificial intelligence. This trip is part of a broader series of international commitments that also includes a visit to South Korea to enhance economic and diplomatic relations.

In India, Lula will attend the 'Summit on the Impact of Artificial Intelligence', an event intended to continue discussions initiated in the United Kingdom in 2023. The annual summit's primary focus is on governance concerning artificial intelligence, which remains a largely unregulated area on a global scale, reflecting the need for more structured oversight amid advancing technologies.

In addition to attending the summit, Lula is also scheduled for an official visit and the opening of the Brazilian Agency for the Promotion of Exports and Investments (Apex-Brasil) office in India. This move is aimed at boosting Brazil's economic presence in the country and fostering stronger bilateral relations, indicating an active engagement in global economic dynamics, especially in sectors vital for the future.
