WASHINGTON: US President Barack Obama took his Brazilian counterpart for a tour of the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial in the American capital, similar to what he had done with Prime Minister Narendra Modi last September.
While Obama drove with Modi in his Beast - the presidential car - on the second day of his US visit, the US President toured his Brazilian counterpart Dilma Rousseff on the first day of his two-day trip.
"The visit provided the leaders an opportunity to reflect together on Dr. King's lifelong work for equality and justice, and against racism and intolerance," the White House said.
"The visit also underscores the many shared values and strong bonds that exist between the American and Brazilian peoples," it added.
