In September 2007, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva became the first Brazilian head-of-state to visit Denmark. There would be numerous visits and reunions between leaders of both nations.

The relations between Brazil and Denmark are cordial, with convergences and affinities between the values and positions of both countries. Both nations advocate the peaceful settlement of disputes and value the role of international organizations as forums for international cooperation. During the Rio+20 Conference in June 2012, President Dilma Rousseff met with Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt. In addition to multilateral issues, both leaders addressed the deepening of technological, scientific and educational cooperation. Prime Minister Thorning-Schmidt stressed the Danish interest in Brazil's involvement in the "Global Green Growth Forum - 3GF", aimed at partnerships within the "green economy".
