Two days of debates are not enough.

We are delighted that many Latin American & Caribbean participants shared their perspectives at #MLMRio. Yet, there is more to cover than time allows. We will continue the conversation at #MSC2025.

This was #MLMRio! The first Munich Leaders Meeting in Latin America took place in Rio de Janeiro. 🇧🇷 In addition to many insights from our discussions, we also take away great impressions of our events and the city. 🏙️

We are already excited to be back for COP30 in Belém!

🌱 #Brazil is feeding the world, producing enough food for 11% of the global population. At #MLMRio, @AmadeeMM explained the country's role in the nexus of food, trade, and security. Currently in Rome, our #FoodSecurity Task Force works on action-oriented strategies for #MSC2025.

🇧🇷 #Brazil is vital for #ClimateSecurity, as the Amazon rainforest on its territory converts vast amounts of CO2 into oxygen. Last week, President #Biden was the first US president to visit the Amazon. This week, we are also in the region to discuss #ClimateAction at #MLMRio.

🌎 At our #MLMRio, Wolfgang Ischinger spoke to Deutsche Welle about how North-South relations have impacted the #G20Brazil outcome: "There is a double standard problem which is weighing down on the credibility of the West."

Right after the #G20Summit, we kicked off our debates at #MLMRio with an island reception. Finally, in Latin America, we will:
🔷 promote dialogue on the global order
🔷 gain a better understanding of regional perspectives
🔷 unlock cooperation potential

📰 How can North-South relations be mutually beneficial? And which role do #BRICS and #NATO play in this context? Our CEO @benediktfranke.bsky.social spoke with @folha.com on the sidelines of #MLMRio.
