One of Brazil's top diplomats is suggesting the country conducts new elections as a way out of the current crisis, as the government claims to have won but hasn't provided backing data and the opposition, which has, says its candidate won by an overwhelming margin.
Celso Amorim, President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's top foreign policy aide, suggested the possibility in a cabinet meeting, according to local outlet Valor Económico. He said it's a preliminary idea that hasn't been shared with Colombia and Mexico, two other regional power brokers in the issue.
