Donald Trump, president of the United States, praised his Brazilian counterpart, Jair Bolsonaro, on Monday, showing himself pleased to vindicate the confrontation between the two.

"They say it's the Donald Trump of South America, can you believe it?" Trump said in a speech in New Orleans at the American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) convention.

The Brazilian president apparently enjoys being considered "the Trump of the tropics", which seems to favor the relationship of the largest country of Latin America with the United States.

"He's happy with that, if I were not, I would not like the country so much, but I like it," Trump said.

Highlighting the revitalization of the commercial link with Brazil since 2003, Trump has indicated that Bolsonaro is "a great new leader".

"I'm an admirer of President Trump, he wants a great United States, I want a great Brazil," Bolsonaro said in his first press conference after winning the first round of the October presidential elections.
