The Brazilian Position in Syria‟s Conflict
Journal Title: Conjuntura Austral: journal of the Global South - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 20
Abstract
In January 2011, when Dilma Rousseff took office as Brazilian president, the Arab world saw the explosion of public protests – it was the “Arab Spring”. In Syria, the initially peaceful demonstrations evolved to a serious internal conflict, which caught the attention of the international community. Brazil, since the beginning, was a strong advocate of a consensus and a negotiated solution.
