Macron must take back 'insults' for Brazil to accept G7 Amazon aid: Bolsonaro
Source: Reuters
BRASILIA/RIO DE JANEIRO (Reuters) - Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro said on Tuesday he wants French President Emmanuel Macron to withdraw the insults made against him before he considers accepting a $20 million offer from the G7 nations to help fight forest fires in the Amazon.
The two leaders have become embroiled in a deeply personal and public war of words in recent days, with Bolsonaro mocking Macrons wife and accusing the French leader of disrespecting Brazils sovereignty. Macron has called Bolsonaro a liar, and said Brazilian women are probably ashamed of their president.
The fires in the Amazon have created a major crisis for Bolsonaros far-right government. The Brazilian leader is losing popularity at home and finding himself increasingly isolated on the global stage over his response to blazes that threaten what many view as a key bulwark against global climate change.
His response to the fires is being closely watched by world leaders increasingly concerned by climate change, and could threaten Brazils trade deals and powerful agribusiness sector, which is a crucial driver of its recession-plagued economy.

Women are far too emotional to be good leaders... their emotions get in the way of making sound policy decisions.
