1. It's a pity.

I understand Dilma needed to send a message that she won't tolerate decisions being taken without her approval, but I think Patriota ended up as the scapegoat here. I don't believe he would betray her like that. Neither does she, or she wouldn't let him stay as Brazil's representative at the United Nations.

But all this problem with Bolivia reinforces my perception that Dilma needs to focus more on the managing of our foreign relations.
