Swine flu

Editorial in liberal Folha de S.Paulo (4-28) says: "....It is time
for readiness and not for panic. Until it is confirmed that there
is a link between A/H1N1 with all the suspected deaths and a high
level of transmission between humans, there is not much to do
besides await epidemiologists' conclusions with serenity."

Cooperation between Iran and Brazil

Op-ed in liberal Folha de S.Paulo (4-28) by Iran's Ambassador to
Brazil, Mohsen Shaterzadeh, states: "....One of the criteria that
helps the most in the rapprochement between the two countries
[Brazil and Iran] is the view of their Chief of States with regards
to foreign issues. Both presidents' slogans are social justice; the
fight against poverty and exclusion....We are facing the emergence
of new powers in the world, which are breaking monopolies of
industrial and technological production that shortly ago belonged to
few countries. In this context, Iran and Brazil have words to
say.....In President Ahmadinejad's government there is an effort to
promote Iran's cooperation with Latin American countries, based on
the principle of mutual respect and non-intervention in the internal
matters of other countries."
