Latin America in the Media Analysis
Brazil has had many political developments and milestones from the Pedro I empire in
1822 down to the current president, Dilma Rousseff who first assumed office in 2011. The
various issues such as poverty and high rate of corruption have rocked the state thus affecting its
economy adversely. This has led to recession and inflation in the country as a result depriving
the state of its expected economic status in the 21
st
Century.
Various people who have vested interests in the running of the country such as the
politicians, tycoons and drug cartels have led to power struggles which have been witnessed,
both in the past and recently as members in the lower house of the congress voted to impeach the
president, Dilma Rousseff. They cited controversial issues for her impeachment such as
emerging communism in the government, “for the truckers”, for peace in Jerusalem, and for the
Free Masons of Brazil. However, they failed to vote her impeachment motion based on the initial
allegations which was violating the rules and regulations concerning public finances and more
specifically on misappropriation of government funds.

that she has been referred to. In spite of these she has been very vocal and in the forefront to
ensure that the dignity of women is uphold in Brazil and worldwide.
Even though her performance as a president is not very bad compared to the other
regimes; she has been put to major criticisms due to the selfish power struggles of powerful
cartels who would like to install a president whom they can control and not who is firm and
fundamentally inclined when making the nation’s decisions.
Moreover, the impeachment motion seems to be politically motivated by certain
individuals in the state, the president has been quoted saying that she is been subjected to a
process that is both legally and politically fraudulent. Thus it is seen that her opponents in the
congress are using the law to depose an “unpopular president”. Previous regimes had major
political and economic scandals such as corruption which she sequentially met, though they did
not necessarily face the same fate.
It is unfortunate that the Latin American country is facing this imminent problem at the
time when they should be focusing their energy in adequate preparation for the Rio de Janeiro
Olympics which is due in August. The fact that Brazil would play host to the international event
should be perceived positively by the multicultural locals who would be able to gain much in
terms of monetary, economic and social exchange which would entirely benefit them.
Meanwhile, the focus should shift from the political impediments facing Brazil to the
much awaited Olympics event. Thus the government should hold the situation facing the
president with decorum so that it would not paint a bad image to the world whereby people from
different parts of the world are anticipating the Rio de Janeiro Olympics game to be held soon.

In conclusion, the institution of presidency in Brazil should be respected and Dilma
Rousseff’s case should be held with consideration legally as per the constitution of the state. The
country should further ensure that its mandate concerning the Olympics is met fully.
