Argentina’s President Alberto Fernandez will meet Brazilian counterpart Jair Bolsonaro in March for the first time, in a sign that both governments are working to overcome recent bad blood.
The pair will meet March 1 at the swearing-in for Uruguay’s new president, Argentina’s Foreign Affairs Minister Felipe Sola told reporters Wednesday following talks with Bolsonaro in Brasilia. It was Bolsonaro who proposed the get-together, Sola said, adding that Bolsonaro had sent ‘a hug’ to Fernandez.
