We present the text for discussion "Keep It Up, Keep It Going: A Short-Term Guide to Sustain Brazil-U.S. Relations through Political Transition and Turmoil", an initiative of the United States Group of CEBRI's Americas Program. It is a work in progress and its content will be presented and discussed at roundtables with concerned parties and experts in the field. The opinions are the responsibility of their authors, Henrique Rzezinski, Diego Bonomo, Silvia Apolinário, Antonio Meirelles Neto, Christiane Bonomo and Renata Vasconcellos, and not the institutions that they represent.
