http://www.gwm-tv.com - Brazil's outgoing president, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, has said he will go to his last G20 economic meeting this week with the aim of lowering trade barriers and ending what he calls a currency war.
Prior to his departure for South Korea, he strongly criticised China and the US, accusing them of artificially devaluing their currencies, which is resulting in global trade imbalances that are preventing full economic recoveries for many nations.
He added that it was crucial to stimulate consumer demand in the US and Europe, and also that trade barriers should be lowered to spark recovery.
