Brasília – President Dilma Rousseff sent a message to the new president of France, François Hollande, congratulating him on his victory and expressing the belief that both of them share positions with regard to the international crisis that will enable them to work together to reverse austerity policies.
“I am certain we share positions that will allow us to work together in international forums, such as the G-20, to make changes to the recession-causing policies that prevail today and that were so unfortunate for Latin American countries in the past,” said the president’s note.
Dilma added that she followed Hollande’s campaign with interest, especially his proposals to deal with the crisis through policies that boost growth, jobs, inclusion and social justice. She concluded by expressing interest in continuing cooperation between Brazil and France and invited Hollande to the Rio+20 conference.
