@ 3 “islanders human right to self determination”????? Islanders don't have human right to self determination because they belong to Britain and are British themselves. If they were not transplanted people from the UK maybe, but this is not the case of the islanders.

In the behavioural process of 'growing up', responsibility is usually one of the later-learned lessons, and so it is with states.
Much of Brasil's behaviour in recent years has been distinctly adolescent.
Dilma is asking Brasil to be adult wrt rights;
she should also be asking for the the Country, its Government and administrations to be adult with respect to Responsibilities.
