Brazil Preps for Belém U.N. Climate Summit
Welcome to Foreign policyLatin American summary.
The most prominent events this week: The Brazilians are preparing for the month of November United Nations Climate ConferenceThe dissident Nicaragua is Killed in Costa RicaAnd The Japanese Peruvian restaurant in Lima The top of the top 50 restaurants in the world.
Negotists from all over the world gathered in Germany this week to conclude the main preparatory talks for the upcoming United Climate Summit in Bilim, Brazil. Bonn talks presented a preview of the main issues at the November event, known as COP30.
COP30 will be one of the largest diplomatic tests so far for Brazilian President Luiz Inosio Lula da Silva, who has had great global ambitions since he took office in January 2023. However, some prominent diplomacy has proven in Lola so far that has not succeeded, like an effort to end the Russian war in Ocreen.
The progress of the United Nations climatic talks depends on the capabilities of negotiators to work with countries of different income and politics. Lula has extensive experience in doing this via forums such as BRICS and G-20-Brazil, hosted the G-20 summit last year-calling for the environment.
COP30 seems to be a square in which Brazilian diplomacy can excel. But a long improved contradiction in the climate ambitions in the country appeared in the headlines, just as the negotiators arrived in Bonn.
Although the declared environmental good deeds support it without plans to expand the oil production in Brazil significantly, including by opening the new ocean drilling sites about 300 miles from the escape of the Amazon River. These plans were initially delayed amid lawsuits and objections from Brazilian environmental organizers.
But after the organizers issued a partial license last month – a sign that full approval may follow it soon – the National Oil Agency at Brazil submitted a auction last Tuesday for drilling rights in 47 foreign areas in the region.
“The auction was a horrific reference to those who are concerned about life and the future of this planet.”
The auction details show a more complex story. Only about 40 percent of the oil blocks offered were raised near the Amazon escape. Several lawsuits were filed to stop drilling in the area. Prosecutors are not only advocates of environmental protection. It also includes the Public Prosecutor’s Office in Brazil as well as the Federation of Oil Workers.
“It was new [the oil workers] To take such a strong action on the case. Foreign policy.
The giant oil company bought drilling rights elsewhere in Brazil at the auction, but it avoided the area near the Amazon escape. ” O Globo The difficulty of purchasing a license in the area was one of the factors that persuaded Shell not to provide bids. Finally, environmental protection advocates considered that low absorption in the auction is partial success.
When he was interrogated in Bonn about Brazil’s expansion in drilling, Anna Tony, a senior Brazilian official supervising the Belém conference, said that as long as the demand for oil continues in the world, there should be a fair debate about the countries that must be allowed to produce fuel.
When writing in the BackChannel newsletter this week, former French Climate negotiator, Anne-Sophie Cerola, suggested that the Paris of the 2015 Paris Agreement via the finish line, that Brazil should be actively transferred not only to make decisions to explore oil, but also its specific strategy and time lines is to get out of fossil fuel production.
“Brazil must invite the discussion countries facing the same implementation issues and need help to move away from fossil fuels,” Cyrissola wrote.
Even just a few years ago, the international climate summits did not include anything about producing fossil fuels in its final decisions. The topic was not identified in the Paris Agreement, which focused on greenhouse gas emissions. The phrase “fossil fuel” appeared only in the summit decision in 2021; Two years later, the two countries adhered to “moving away” from them.
Climate activists called for the COP30 decision, which is characterized by stronger and more specific language in this transition. In a public speech, the Brazil organizers included the progress made in “moving away from fossil fuels” as one of the main goals of the summit.
But official negotiation sessions will determine the type of language that it makes in the final agreement of the summit. In Bonn, Colombia pushed a strong formulation of fossil fuels, while Russia and Bolivia were among the countries that interrogated it.
By the end of the week, the two countries wrote a possible draft language confirming that the transition away from fossil fuels should include energy security and social and economic opportunities – which leads to a final decision on the issue to November.

Disorder in Costa Rica. Costa Rica was a turbulent week. Last Thursday, the prominent dissident was killed in Nicaragua in the capital of San Jose. Roberto Samkam killed a few days after the funeral of former Nicaragua President Violetta Chamoro, who lived in exile in the same city. Another defector was shot in Nicaragua, San Jose last year and survived.
Activists in Nicaragua called for Samkam’s death as part of a “wider national repression strategy” promoted by President Nicaragua Daniel Ortega.
Then, on Monday, General Prosecutors in Costa Rica accused President Rodrigo Chavez and many of his political allies in financing the illegal campaign, and asked the country’s Supreme Court to lift the country’s presidential immunity from the prosecution. Chavez was accused of the public prosecutor of trying to prevent his agenda.
Costa Rica held the elections next February. Although Chaves does not plan to run for his re -election, one of them is likely to play from the right -wing party, and the accusation may play a role in the presidential race.
Giant telescope. The United States telescope in the Chilean desert in Atakama published its first photos this week. The Vera C. Rubin telescope has the largest digital camera in the world and will wipe the sky over the southern hemisphere.
The telescope can determine new asteroids that may be in a collision path with the Earth. (Of about 2000 was first identified, none of them appeared to be on our way.

US President Donald Trump’s deportation policies and closed resort to lifting migration patterns in Latin America. Some migrants have returned from traveling to the United States or staying in the United States to their countries of origin, while others went to another place.
Governments in Latin America, as well as Europe, have repeated Trump’s restrictions of migration, making it difficult for foreigners to obtain permission to live and work. But there are some exceptions.
In recent months, the Cubans applied for a position for refugees in Brazil by thousands, to become a leading citizenship to do so in the first quarter of 2025, overcoming the Venezuelan. Several Cuban immigrants have chosen stability in the southern city of Curitiba, which has an increasing economy, Bloomberg I mentioned. Although the Cubans have suffered from some of the phobias, many of them have been reported to find work.
The Venezuelan, at the same time, migrate increasingly to Spain. Spain has taken an opposition road to the restrictions of the restrictions of its European neighbors, as it provides waves of the organization for migrants. Some economists attribute to migrant work by making Spain one of the fastest growing economies in Europe.
It is worth noting that the right -wing Fox Party in Spain does not share the same level as the hatred of foreigners towards Spanish -speaking immigrants, like some of its regional counterparts.
