After meeting US president Barack Obama in the White House Oval Office, Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff told reporters, today, that she talked with him about the ill effects of Washington's and Europe's monetary policies, which are hurting developing countries like Brazil.
She had already referred recently to a "monetary tsunami" that according to her has taken global speculative money to Brazil, raising the value of the real and making Brazilian exports less competitive in the world market. Rousseff is in the United States for discussions on the international economic crisis, the Rio+20 Conference on Sustainable Development (in June in Rio de Janeiro) and the new student exchange program, Science Without Borders (Ciência sem Fronteiras).
The two presidents will take part in the closing ceremony of a meeting of business executives from both countries. Dilma will also close a Brazil - United States Business Seminar: Partnership for the 21st Century. After that, she will meet American business leaders.
