  Rousseff says:
  
  Human Rights should not be “ weapon for ideaological political warfare”..
  
  I say :
  
  The charter of UN is not as clear as it could be when it comes to saving lives within countries in situations of mass cruelties...
  Article 2.7 prohibits intervention--in matters which are essentially within a jurisdiction of any State-- there has been a result a long standing argument in international community between those who insist on -- right to intervene--in man -- made catastrophes and those who argue that the Security Council for all its power under Chapte VII to -- maintain or restore international security--is prohibited from authorizing and coercive action against sovereign States for whatever happens within their borders.....!......................

  I can see that for my president , Human rights is not an weapon when you have ideological ties with the opressor, this message is clear. Roussef lost a big moment to shut the mouth.
  First he avoid the biggest and more important economic forum of the world to go to a “Social“ event, putting her own will before the country‘s one.
  Now,that statement.
  Sometimes i miss Lula, at least he knows where the country interest is located.
  Greetings.

  If you can do business with Cuba, do it and indeed, you should not use human rights as a weapon to hurt a nation with who you can do business with and from there improve people's life. For the rest she made sense, mind your own business.
  
  “First he avoid the biggest and more important economic forum of the world to go to a “Social“ event, putting her own will before the country‘s one.”
  
  Didn't she go to Porto Alegre-RS for the World Social Forum?
  Why bother a “club of crooks” in Davos, who created the so called credit crisis and now come with their solutions? Dilma didn't go because she understood that it was a waste of time.

  Your post really ensure your ignorance about the economic forum of davos. Brazil is the 6th economy in the world, the second top-dog in the south hemisphere and the powerhouse of SA. We shouldnt stay out of the world‘s main issues. What you are saying is just the same rethoric that leftist use to explain how victim of the system they are.
  Its time to grow up! The world social forum is nothing compared to Davos. Private equity funds which were represented there owns about 4-5 trillion dollars.
  Dilma followed her will not the country interest. However, i had the opportunity to see the magazine that China made to Davos, simply amazing, trying to explain how complex is their country. Do you know what Brazil made? Nothing. Only few enterpreuners there, fourty if i can remember.
  Thats how the world works, and Dilma shows how lost in the power she is.
