BRASILIA (Reuters) – Brazil’s foreign policy must improve to support the country’s COVID-19 response, Senate President Rodrigo Pacheco said on Thursday, adding that it was up to President Jair Bolsonaro to decide if he would replace Foreign Minister Ernesto Araujo.
A close ideological ally of the president, Araujo has faced criticism for his barbs against vaccine superpower China and struggles to secure shots from the U.S. stockpile.
