(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump has tentative plans to meet with his Brazilian counterpart, Jair Bolsonaro, in Florida on Saturday night, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Vice President Mike Pence and Trump’s national security advisor, Robert O’Brien, are to be among those attending the meeting at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, said one of the people, who was granted anonymity to discuss the plans.
Bolsonaro, a Trump admirer who fashioned his successful election campaign after the American president’s, is traveling to Florida to meet with business leaders.
Earlier this week, Brazil reported that economic growth slowed to 1.1% last year. The government has acknowledged that the coronavirus will affect economic activity.
