In Brazil, a Senate committee has recommended an impeachment trial for President Dilma Rousseff over allegations she tampered with public accounts to hide a budget deficit. Brazil is engulfed in a corruption scandal, but Rousseff herself has not been accused of corruption. The full Senate is expected to vote Wednesday on whether Rousseff should face trial; if a majority sides against her, she would be suspended. Her potential replacement, Vice President Michel Temer, was ordered last week to pay a fine for violating campaign finance limits. After Friday’s committee vote, Rousseff vowed to continue fighting.

President Dilma Rousseff: “I will stay here fighting, fighting because I am the proof of this injustice. They are condemning an innocent person, and there is nothing more serious than condemning an innocent person.”
