Afterall he just gave Petrobas, the Brazillian government oil company one of the few permits released in the Gulf of Mexico in US territory, so why shouldn't they? But, the rubber bullets fly at the anti-Obama protests:
Another complaint was that Obama wanted Brazilian president from the Workers Party(COMMUNIST), Dilma Rousseff, to sell Brazil’s newfound oil to the US. One of the world’s largest deep sea oil discoveries was made by Brazilian oil company Petrobras in the so called Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin off the coast of Rio back in November of 2007.
The US is interested in importing oil from Petrobras, and Obama has said as much. But the US has no powers over Petrobras, which is majority owned by the Brazilian government and intent on servicing local oil needs first.
