Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu attended the inauguration ceremony of Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, who was sworn in for a third term as Brazil's president in the capital Brasilia on Sunday.
"Attended oath-taking ceremony of @LulaOfficial, President of Brazil. Conveyed President Erdogan’s message of congratulations," Çavusoğlu wrote on Twitter.
Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva was inaugurated as the 39th President of Brazil and 26th Vice President of Brazil, respectively, in a ceremony held in the National Congress in Brasília, beginning the third Lula administration.
At the age of 77, Lula became the oldest president-elect to assume office and the only president in Brazilian history to serve two non-consecutive terms in office through the democratic vote.
Lula's third inauguration was attended by the largest number of foreign leaders at a presidential inauguration in Brazil's history, beating the current record held by Lula himself in his first inauguration as president back in 2003.
Lula's third inauguration was also attended by more foreign leaders, heads of State, and heads of Government than the Rio Olympic Games in 2016. (ILKHA)
