Brasília – The governments of Brazil and the United States will sign ten documents – agreements, treaties and memorandums – as a result of the visit of Barack Obama.

The ten documents cover trade and economic cooperation (setting up a high-level commission on economic and commercial cooperation), air transportation, peaceful use of outer space, support for large sports events (the World Soccer Cup and the Olympic Games), research in biodiversity, development of a biofuel for aviation and technical cooperation with other countries.

Agreements on patents, duplicate social security contributions and the end of visa requirements for Brazilian travelers to the US will have to await further negotiations.
