Brazil–Tanzania relations refers to the current and historical relations between the Federative Republic of Brazil and the United Republic of Tanzania. Both nations are members of the Group of 77 and the United Nations.
History
Brazil and Tanzania established diplomatic relations in 1970.[1] In 1979, Brazil opened an embassy in Dar es Salaam; however, the embassy was closed in 1991 due to budget restraints. In March 2005, the Brazilian embassy in Dar es Salaam was reopened.[1] In 2007, Tanzania opened a resident embassy in Brasília.[1]
In July 2010, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva became the first Brazilian head-of-state to pay a visit to Tanzania which constituted a historic landmark in the relations between the two countries. During the visit, bilateral contacts were deepened in areas such as biofuels, agriculture, investments in infrastructure, mining and trade.[2]
Following the Brazilian Presidential visit, Tanzanian Foreign Minister, Bernard Membe paid a visit to Brazil in September 2010. In 2011, Tanzanian Prime Minister, Mizengo Pinda, paid an official visit to Brazil. In 2012, Tanzanian President, Jakaya Kikwete, also paid a visit to Brazil.[1]
Brazil's cooperation with Tanzania includes initiatives in several areas. Both at the trilateral and bilateral levels, initiatives were developed in the agricultural, health, energy, sports and child protection sectors. Currently, trilateral programs are being implemented in the area of food security (school meals) and promotion of decent work in the cotton sector, as well as bilateral programs to strengthen the cotton and fishing sectors in Tanzania.[1]
