Newly inaugurated President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro met U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Wednesday at the presidential palace.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo discussed supporting a return to democracy in Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua with Brazil's new right-wing government Wednesday, in a joint effort against what he called authoritarian regimes in Latin America.
Pompeo and Brazil's Foreign Minister Ernesto Araujo considered deepening cooperation in the region at a meeting in Brasilia following Tuesday's inauguration of far-right President Jair Bolsonaro.
They discussed "supporting the people of Venezuela, Cuba and Nicaragua in restoring democratic governance and their human rights," State Department deputy spokesman Robert Palladino said.
