HONG KONG—Chinese leader Xi Jinping and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva struck a unified pose in defiance of U.S. foreign and trade policy in a meeting in Beijing on Friday, adding weight to Beijing’s pushback against what it sees as a Washington-led containment effort.
“We will work to expand trade and balance world geopolitics,” Mr. da Silva wrote on Twitter after meeting with Mr. Xi.
