In recent days the Brazilian Senate has approved the temporary removal from office of Labor President Dilma Rousseff, accused of cooking the books. Many in Brazil see this a coup, as a democratically elected leader has been suspended, pending trial, not by a court but after a vote in which opposition MP's were the majority. The highest office hes been given to Rousseff's deputy, the centrist Michel Temer, who is also under investigation. For details we spoke with our correspondent from Brazil, Andrea Ciacchi.
