Brazil's president postponed a planned state visit to the United States over allegations that the National Security Agency has spied on her government.
Brazil President Dilma Rousseff made her own announcement on Tuesday, but added that her visit could be rescheduled. "Given the proximity of the scheduled state visit to Washington and in the absence of a timely investigation ... there aren't conditions for this trip to be made," said a statement from Rousseff's office. "The Brazilian government is confident that when the question is settled in an adequate manner, the state visit can quickly occur." Rousseff has said she wants an apology from Obama and the United States.
