FBI provides training to Peru’s PNP

Brazil: On 24 March newswire, Reuters, cited anonymous sources as saying that US Vice-President Joe Biden had, in a 13 March phone call, invited Brazil's President Dilma Rousseff for a State visit to Washington. According to the Reuters report, “Biden offered Rousseff a choice between a state visit in 2016 or a high-profile but less formal trip this year”. The two countries are seeking to rebuild trust after the 2013 diplomatic kerfuffle over the extent of the US National Security Agency (NSA)’s intelligence gathering activities in Brazil, an incident (broken by the US whistleblower Edward Snowden) that prompted President Rousseff to take the unprecedented step of cancelling a scheduled State visit to the US in October 2013.
