LaRouche in Brazil: We Shall All Sail, Or Sink, Together

Lyndon and Helga LaRouche visited Brazil June 11-15, 2002, invited by the City Council of São Paulo, where LaRouche was awarded honorary citizenship in that city of more than 18 million people, the third largest in the world. LaRouche gave three public addresses during his week-long visit, in addition to his speech to the City Council. In each, he warned that there was no solution to the current economic crisis within the existing international financial system. LaRouche insisted that there was no way the United States would come out of the breakdown crisis without the founding of a community of principle among the nations of the Americas, and that Brazil had a particular role to play in any such endeavor.

With the formation and expansion of the BRICS nations, Brazil has clearly strived to fulfill the role that LaRouche prescribed in 2002. Will the United States follow suit?
