On its Article 61, the Constitution of Brazil defines that the President of Brazil is the high responsible for the country's internal and foreign affairs being, therefore, one of his attributions the appointments of ambassadors and other diplomatic offices.[1] The ambassadors of Brazil are the main representatives of the Brazilian government's interests in diplomatic dealings with other nations and their appointment by the President must be followed by an approval of the Senate Foreign Affairs and National Defense Commission.[2][3][4]
In his third presidential term, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva appointed new ambassadors for many Brazilian diplomatic missions abroad.[5][6] On 22 March 2023, the Federal Senate formally received the appointment of 7 ambassadors from the Planalto Palace with the prediction that 13 appointments would be sent in a long term.[7]
