Brasilia - Former Brazilian Foreign Minister Celso Amorim once again warned the fact that Brazil, under the government of Jair Bolsonaro, is currently submitting Brazil to Washington''s plans.

'Brazil evolved from a process in which it had a certain independence, of course with limitations, during the government of (Michel) Temer, a certain implicit strategic subordination and now for a situation of explicit submission,' Amorin stated, cited by Rede Brasil Atual website.

The former minister's reflection emerged on occasion of Bolsonaro's brief visit to Washington and the statements made by the Brazilian president and his U.S. peer Donald Trump during a joint press briefing held at the White House.

For Amorim, Bolsonaro's claim that he relieved in power in Brazil a series of anti-American former presidents is conceptually silly.

He explained that during the mandates of former Presidents, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and Dilma Rousseff, no signs of anti-Americanism was encouraged.

He reiterated that the issue of the so-called anti-Americanism of previous Brazilian governments was widespread by the mainstream media.

The disagreement with the United States, especially in economic matters in which the interests of the press were involved in one or another way, provoked that kind of assessment, the former foreign minister said.
