Secretary General of Foreign Affairs of Brazil

Secretary-General of the External Relations of Brazil (in Portuguese: Secretário-Geral das Relações Exteriores do Brasil, more commonly known as Secretary-General of Itamaraty) is the highest position in Brazil's professional diplomatic career. The position must be occupied by a born Brazilian, admitted to the diplomatic career by public exams, and he or she must be a career ambassador (and not a political appointee). It is generally considered "the most graduated Brazilian diplomat"[1][2][3][3][4][5] The Secretary-General manages the Itamaraty, Brazil's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He or she acts under the guidances of the Minister of the External Relations of Brazil (who can be a political nominee). As vice-chancellor of Brazil, the Secretary-General is the Acting Foreign Minister inside Brazil borders during all the trips abroad performed by the official, political Minister.[6][7]

The current Secretary-General of the MInistry of External Relations of Brazil is Ambassador Marcos Galvão.
