BRAZIL: Imminent ministerial reshuffle
Fifteen cabinet ministers tendered their resignations to President Dilma Rousseff on 12 November. Aloizio Mercadante, the cabinet chief, said the resignations were acts of “kindness” designed to comply with Rousseff’s election campaign promise of “new term, new team”. Many of them hope for jobs in Rousseff’s second term. Talking to journalists in Qatar, en route to the G-20 meeting in Australia, Rousseff said she had no intention of announcing appointments next week.
