Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva invited President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to visit Brazil next year, as the two countries recently held bilateral talks in Manila.

Da Silva made the statement during a press briefing on Sunday as he concludes his two-day visit to the Philippines, according to GMA News Bea Pinlac's social media post.

He said Marcos was among the heads of state he invited to visit Brazil.

“We’re inviting everyone to come and visit Brazil,” Da Silva said, which was translated in English by a device provided by the Brazil delegation.

He added that Brazil aims to promote and collaborate with other countries in “exploration, transformation, industrialization,” among others.

Da Silva also hopes that Brazil will be a "definitive partner of ASEAN."

Malacañang said it has yet to confirm Brazil's invitation through the Department of Foreign Affairs.

Da Silva's visit coincided with the 49th ASEAN Summit and Related Summits being held from November 15 to 17 in Pasay City.

The bilateral meeting between the Philippines and Brazil tackled ways to enhance relations between the two countries.
