This is not news to me, I only know that Brazil will become its world impotence and I hope there is more investment in Brazil, the size of the territory of Brazil was for Brazil to be the great world power but I'm fine, Brazil was sabotaged a lot for the countries of the United States for me, humble opinion who knows who ...
