Cablegate<\/em>, le Br\u00e9sil, les USA, le Rafale<\/em> et toute cette sorte de choses<\/h4>\n

Le site WSWS.org<\/em> met en ligne un excellent article de Bill Van Auken, ce 14 d\u00e9cembre 2010<\/a>, sur les pressions exerc\u00e9es par les USA sur le Br\u00e9sil depuis des ann\u00e9es, essentiellement depuis l’arriv\u00e9e de Lula Bien entendu, la chose fait partie de la chronique Cablegate<\/em>, \u00e0 partir des fuites de l’organisation Wikileaks<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tL’action constante des USA vis-\u00e0-vis du Br\u00e9sil est d’une impudence rare, avec des interf\u00e9rences, des rencontres suscitant des actions d’influence, etc. Il nous para\u00eet tr\u00e8s probable que la coh\u00e9sion du r\u00e9gime, l’attitude de Lula et de la nouvelle pr\u00e9sidente (dans deux semaines) Dilma Rousseff, vont \u00eatre particuli\u00e8rement secou\u00e9es par ces r\u00e9v\u00e9lations qui impliquent des personnages importants (le g\u00e9n\u00e9ral F\u00e9lix, qui dirige le GSI, l’organisme de coordination de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 nationale du cabinet Lula, le ministre de la d\u00e9fense Jobim). Le changement de pr\u00e9sidence devrait permettre \u00e0 Rousseff d’\u00e9liminer des affaires publiques certaines de ces personnalit\u00e9s sans faire de vagues, par les simples changements d’une nouvelle administration. Par contre, si un F\u00e9lix ou un Jobim reste en activit\u00e9 dans la nouvelle administration, cela signifiera que le r\u00e9gime Lula-Rousseff est beaucoup moins solide qu’on ne pouvait penser, et toujours sous la menace d’actions de pro-am\u00e9ricanistes ou d’agents des USA qui repr\u00e9senteraient des forces importantes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\tIl y a un passage de l’article qui concerne la comp\u00e9tition pour l’achat de 36 avions de combat, dont nous avons beaucoup parl\u00e9 et dont la d\u00e9cision est actuellement renvoy\u00e9e \u00e0 la pr\u00e9sidence Rousseff, ou bien aux calendes grecques c’est selon. L’activisme US y appara\u00eet beaucoup plus important qu’on ne le pensait, avec les militaires et le ministre de la d\u00e9fense br\u00e9siliens comme agents d’influence. Si, un jour, le Br\u00e9sil ach\u00e8te un avion de combat et que le Rafale<\/em> est choisi, il faudra compter cela comme une victoire majeure sur l’appareil d’influence occulte des USA au Br\u00e9sil<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00abAnother key concern reflected in the cables was Washington’s campaign to win an $8 billion contract to provide 36 new fighter planes to Brazil’s Air Force. The US government was acting as the agent for the aerospace giant Boeing, which was trying to sell its F\/A-18 Super Hornet, in competition with the French firm Dassault, which was selling its Rafale jet. After a year of intense competition, outgoing President Lula has announced that no decision will be made before he leaves office in January, and it is widely believed that the planned purchase will be scrapped.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbThe cables provide insight into the way in which the US embassy sought to work through figures in the Brazilian military establishment to promote the Boeing sale. In particular, Brazil’s Defense Minister Nelson Jobim and the chief of the Brazilian Air Force, Brigadier Juniti Saito, were seen as in Washington’s camp. In one cable sent by then-Ambassador Clifford Sobel last January, Saito was described as a key ally in our FX2 [fighter jet] bid. Jobim is referred to as one of the most trustworthy leaders in Brazil.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbJobim apparently earned this trust by providing inside information on his colleagues in the Brazilian government. He is quoted in one of the cables as confiding to Ambassador Sobel that Samuel Pinheiro Guimar\u00e3es, the former secretary-general of Brazil’s foreign ministry and current minister for strategic affairs, was someone who hates the United States and creates problems between the two countries.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\t\u00bbSimilar financial calculations were expressed in cables dealing with the Brazil’s plans for the exploration of the pre-salt reserves off the country’s Atlantic coast. The embassy’s concerns were the same as those of Chevron and Exxon-Mobil that the rules for the participation of foreign corporations would be more restrictive and less lucrative<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
