In search of new businesses and partnerships, President Jair Bolsonaro will head the Brazilian delegation on three official international trips this year. Bolsonaro announced visits to the United States, Israel and Chile during a live broadcast on social networks on Thursday (March 7). 

According to the president, the government's intention is to conclude agreements that bring concrete results to the country. "It will be a profitable trip for our Brazil," he said. During the trips, Bolsonaro will be accompanied by ministers of state and advisers. 

Pension Reform

Accompanied in the live stream by the Head of the Institutional Security Office, General Augusto Heleno, and General Rêgo Barros, spokesperson for the Presidency of the Republic, the President reinforced the importance of the New Pension System bill submitted to the National Congress in February.

"We need to reform our pension system. It stands at a great deficit,” he explained. The bill, he added, will fight privileges and put Brazil on the path to growth.
