Brasília
CHINESE Premier Li Keqiang lifted the wraps on Tuesday on a multibillion-dollar series of trade and investment deals with Brazil, as Beijing looks to invest US$53 billion in South America's largest economy.
The news unveiled at the start of Mr Li's first official visit to Latin America is a huge boon for Brazil as it endures a fifth straight year of low growth, after a period of rapid expansion fuelled by Asian demand for commodities that has since slowed.
