Brasilia, 28 (Agência Brasil - ABr) - Minister of Finance Pedro Malan said Wednesday that it would be utterly naive on his part to say that Brazil is absolutely immune or exempt from influence from any occurrence in the rest of the world. He stressed, however, that the country is today increasingly perceived as a nation with a solid foundation in the political/institutional area and in the fiscal, monetary and currency exchange regimes. He pointed out that cooperation between the Executive and Legislative Branches and between the federal government and states and municipalities differentiate Brazil from other nations that are going through difficulties at the moment.
