Brazil at the top table (Financial Times)

Humberto Laudares indicated the article “Brazil´s cuddy ways are barrier to seat at the top table” by John Paul Rathbone, in the Financial Times. “I am infected by the peace virus, ” Mr Lula da Silva once said. Brazil’s defence minister has even remarked that the country has no enemies. However, Brazil’s rainbow policy may be reaching its limits and could even jeopardise the permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council that it covets. Even so, many feel that if Brazil is to sit at the top table it will have to take hard choices. see: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/3494a8a8-4c13-11df-a217-00144feab49a.html
