Speaking in Brasília at a joint press conference with Gordon Brown, the UK prime minister, Mr Lula da Silva told reporters: "This crisis was caused by the irrational behaviour of white people with blue eyes, who before the crisis appeared to know everything and now demonstrate that they know nothing."
He added: "I do not know any black or indigenous bankers so I can only say [it is wrong] that this part of mankind which is victimised more than any other should pay for the crisis."
Mr Brown appeared to distance himself from Mr Lula da Silva's remarks. "I'm not going to attribute blame to any individuals," he said.
eric said lula's probably tired of being the most right of the latin american left so it was time to say something clever & inflammatory. jeje, maybe so. in any case, that's some hugo chavez-quality comedic style. i like it. and anyway, he's right. as the argentinos were singing in their popular demonstrations about the economic crisis when i was there last december... ¡¡¡¡que pague el patrón!!!!mafalda by quino :)
