Rousseff impeachment to proceed after annulment decision reversed

Summary

Brazilian president Dilma Rousseff was impeached for manipulating public accounts ahead of her re-election in 2014. She utilized bribes which her election staff accepted as an election campaign fund. She would be forced to stand down for 180 days while she is tried and vice-president Michel Temer would assume the presidency in the interim.She appeared to be given a last-minute reprieve after the interim speaker tried to annul in last month’s congressional vote in favour of impeachment. But speaker refused to send the vote back to the lower house.

Opinion
Ms Rousseff would be forced to stand down for 180 days. And official countdown to the 2016 Summer Olympic Games is fewer than 100 days. In addicion, vice-prsident Michel Temer who would assume the presidency may also be impeached. He may also concerned an illegal campaign donations. So 2016 Summer Olympic Games will be held without president. Some experts say it won’t affect Olympic Games. But I think absence of the top position will have many obstacles. Many problems suddenly appears while Olympic Games. But nobody can make a decision. As a result,I think Ms Rousseff impeachment should be reprieved.
