本期内容:
In a 15-hour session Brazil’s Senate voted 59-21 in favour of an impeachment 1 trial for Dilma Rousseff, the country’s embattled president. In May Ms Rousseff was suspended, ostensibly for dodgy accounting 2 practices, after a similarly drawn-out debate. Another vote after the Olympics will require a two-thirds majority to convict her; Michel Temer, the vice-president and interim 3 leader, would serve out her term.
