President Lula da Silva changed his tune after having criticised the Brazilian business class on Tuesday (27 January) during a state visit to India. President Lula da Silva said he wanted the Brazilian export sector to be more 'aggressive' and to hear less 'crying' from businesses. By Wednesday, however, he had second thoughts, admitting he had been too harsh to his 'business comrades'. He commended the businessmen who travel in search for new business opportunities, but reproached the ones who 'wait for miracles to happen'.
