U.S. and Brazilian officials held trade talks on Thursday that the two sides called positive and agreed to work to schedule a meeting between President Donald Trump and Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, a joint statement said.

The joint statement did not mention a specific timeline for the Trump-Lula meeting but said both countries were working to schedule it "at the earliest possible occasion."

The statement came from U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and Brazilian Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira.
