The leftist, who won his third term last month, is planning a series of meetings with national representatives in which he will outline plans to restore Brazil’s credibility as a partner in global efforts to stem warming, an aide said.

The negotiating position itself has been largely unchanged regardless of who has been in power. For example, Brazil under Lula is expected to continue pushing for rich nations with high greenhouse gas emissions to pay poor nations for historic damage to the climate, the diplomats said. Colombia’s Environment Minister Susana Muhamad said Lula’s election would allow renewed regional cooperation among Amazon rainforest nations to tackle deforestation, a m
