In Brazil, people have come out in Sao Paulo to express opposition to the interim government of Michel Temer after the suspension of Dilma Rousseff.
The centrist Temer, Rousseff’s vice president, is scrambling to pull the economy out of its worst recession since the 1930s. Rousseff represents the left-leaning Workers’ Party.
Temer took power Thursday after the Senate voted to suspend Dilma Rousseff pending a decision in her impeachment trial.
Temer met with his newly-installed cabinet and charged his new ministers with enacting business-friendly policies while maintaining the still-popular social programs that were the hallmark of Rousseff’s Workers’ Party.
