President Xi put forth a few suggestions on developing the bilateral relations in the future. "China places fight against poverty at a prominent position in state governance, and supports Brazil’s Zero Hunger program," he said.

Both sides underscored the importance of leveraging technology to reduce poverty, such as through advanced farming techniques and digital solutions to improve supply chains.
