Abstract

This work seeks to investigate why Brazil poorly explored the potential of Central Asia during Lula’s government. Besides the prioritization of Brazil’s interests and the efforts of Brazilian diplomacy, which establishes a hierarchy of priorities, we discuss whether there was a geopolitical constraint to Brazilian presence in the region. This would have occurred because of the importance of the region to other key-partners of Brazil, with whom bilateral relations were of higher hierarchical interest.
