Freshly re-elected, the Brazilian president Lula will participate in the UN's COP31 climate conference in Turkey in November

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has confirmed his attendance at the upcoming United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP31), scheduled to take place in Antalya, Turkey, from November 9 to 20. The announcement was made by a government source to the Associated Press, highlighting climate action as a central pillar of Lula’s recent re-election campaign. The event features an unusual organizational structure where Turkey hosts the conference while Australia leads the negotiations, a compromise arrangement designed to facilitate dialogue. Head-of-state sessions are planned for November 11 and 12, following the previous year’s COP30 in Belém, which failed to reach consensus on fossil fuel phase-downs due to opposition from major producers and consumers. Brazilian Health Minister Alexandre Padilha described Lula’s electoral victory over conservative candidate Flavio Bolsonaro as a triumph for climate change mitigation programs over denialist approaches.
