President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva returned to Belém on Wednesday (19) to boost the final COP30 negotiations, expressing optimism about convincing Donald Trump of the climate crisis's seriousness. He defended first lady Janja's role and celebrated Germany's announcement of a 1 billion euro investment in the Tropical Forests Forever Fund (TFFF). While progress like this pledge raises the total to US$ 6.7 billion, negotiations face stalemates on issues like fossil fuels and gender.
