Talk:Brazil–United States relations

message: "Brazil has traditionally preferred to cooperate with the United States on specific issues rather than seeking to develop an all-encompassing, privileged relationship with the United States"
This needs to be changed. No-one has an "all-encompassing, privileged relationship with the United States", not Britain, not Japan, not Australia, NO-ONE. The introduction needs to be changed. Contralya 06:48, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree. The quote comes from a recent (2007) U.S. CONGRESS Report on Brazil-U.S. Relations( page 11, line 7), therefore it is appropriately referenced.Limongi 20:16, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Well, no-one has all encompassing agreement with the united states. NO ONE. The world doesn't work like that, and it is ignorant to think that it is a standard for anywhere. It is an ignorant statement. Because they said it in congress doesn't mean it should be in wikipedia UNLESS it is a quote. Contralya 06:47, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: What??

message: "In 1975 Brazil renounced the United States-Brazil Military Assistance Agreement, which had been in effect since 1952, in a clear response to the position of the Carter administration."
Carter served his term in office from 1977 to 1981, right? So the sentence doesn't make sense. Someone with more specific knowledge on these issues should correct that.
:I agree, I came to the talk page with this in mind. It's a glaring error. --mahlered (talk) 21:15, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Mistake ?

message: There should be a mention of the ongoing struggle between the US and Brazil to repatriate Sean Goldman.  There are those who call for trade sanctions on Brazil for violating international law.  Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has addressed the legal dispute over the custody of Sean Goldman.  It is very strange there is not even a wikipedia article on Sean or David Goldman, considering the article length of the page for Elián González.

message: Something must be added on the rising contention between the US and Brazil over Brazil's support of Iran's Nuclear Program. This will surely become a major obstacle in bilateral ties between the two, if it continues the way it is now.Zereshk (talk) 20:58, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Brazil is currently choosing a supplier of jetfighters for its armed forces. One of the bidders is Boeing, which is willing to sell F-18 fighters to Brazil. That's a very relevant current issue. Jgsodre (talk) 20:52, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

message: I have looked at 100s bilateral articles and it is not normal practice to put these tables. The main reason is that these articles are about actual interactions eg trade, leaders visits, disputes between countries. Because one country had a different population or language to another is actually not reporting any interaction. Lastly if you really want to read about say Brazil, click ;Brazil.

replies: text: Whatever other articles might or might not contain, I think the comparison still adds value here. Knowing some background about the countries' relative positions in the world helps inform how they interact.Goodsdrew (talk) 15:28, 17 December 2013 (UTC)
replies: text:  actual coverage of interactions shows how they interact. Not comparison tables. What next a comparison tables of their leaders? LibStar (talk) 02:34, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

message: Dilma didn't cancel her visit in September 2013. She postponed it. There is a difference. The confusion arises from the fact that many newspapers either don't know the difference or want to exaggerate.

message: Hello. Please take a moment to review the WP:UNDUE WP:BALASP policies before including photos in the lead section.
The prominent placement and subsequent content juxtaposition of photo ops with the lead section gives the depicted events undue weight, negatively impacting the impartiality of the article. Such images belong in the History section, preferentially being the sole representative of a given period of time unless there's a reasonable and verifiable reason behind their inclusion. Even then, their inclusion should be excised with utmost care to not break the aforementioned policies due the political nature of the subject discussed in this article. — Radnyr (talk) 15:38, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

message: Where should we add in Joint Law enforcement operations between the U.S and Brazil?  In 2012 the US FBI and HSI agents started special trainings of the Federal police.  In 2019 the FBI and HSI along with the NCA of the UK conducted a joint operation in Brazil called LOBOS 1 and LOBOS 2.  There are likely many more joint operations, memorandums of agreement etc.  We have an FBI and an HSI office in Brazil. eximo (talk) 20:52, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
