Event, which starts this Friday (4), precedes the leader summit of the Bloc of emerging countries, scheduled for Sunday (6) and Monday (7)
This weekend, the Rio de Janeiro becomes the epicenter of global discussions with the beginning of the BRICSwhich brings together leaders from emerging countries, including Brazilian President Lula. The event, which takes place this Sunday (6) and Monday (7), at the Museum of Modern Art, in the Aterro do Flamengo, promises to be a milestone for the city, which is already under a rigorous security scheme. With blockages and interdictions in various strategic areas, the city is preparing to receive meetings from finance ministers, economics and central banks presidents. Preliminary activities have already begun with the first meeting of the BRICS Popular Council (emerging market countries group in relation to their economic development) that will take place on July 4th and 5th.
With the holiday, the Rio de Janeiro transport system will undergo significant adjustments. Trains, subway and BRTs will operate with reduced capacity, which can impact the mobility of cariocas. Blocking zones are mainly concentrated in the South Zone, near the hotel in Arpoador and the Museum of Modern Art. To ensure safety, military from the Armed Forces are already present in the city, acting under the guarantee of law and order (GLO), which gives them police power. In addition, Santos Dumont Airport will remain closed during the event.
In parallel to the summit, the Rio de Janeiro Public Security Bureau is developing a strategic plan involving an 180 -day GLO decree. This decree aims to assist in the resumption of territories controlled by traffickers and militia, and will be presented to the Federal Government as part of the update of the Fundamental Precept (ADPF) non -compliance with the slums. The goal is to make state obligations more flexible in the area of security, seeking more effective solutions to the challenges faced by the city.

In addition to security and logistics issues, Rio de Janeiro faces an atypical climate, with three consecutive days of rain, something that has generated comparisons with the climate of Sao Paulo. This unusual meteorological scenario adds an extra layer of complexity to the organization of the event, requiring careful adaptations and planning to ensure that the BRICS summit occurs without setbacks. The city, however, is determined to show its ability to host large events, reinforcing its position on the international scene.
