Chile's Gabriel Boric said the situation in Venezuela "is not a construction of a narrative" but "a serious reality" Lula's rapprochement with Maduro at the Planalto Palace on Monday set the tone for today's South American summit. Lula is trying to relaunch Unasur, to which seven of the 12 countries in the region belong.

The summit was not publicly displayed. Only the opening speech was released and the rest by decision of the Brazilian government was not transmitted.
