sounds like respectable guests

It's one thing that surprised me about statics about Brazilian in Germany (saw it a long ago in a kraut's) video

It's really low

do south americans go to Europe at high rates?

I don't know tbh

Probably not that high

I think they can't afford the trip.

Some do

fair enough

But who knows, they might be going to northern Africa and entering as "refugees".

I really doubt that, it's probably easier to go to USA

It's not like EU keeps good records of the immigrants.

I mean, I don't doubt someone have done that, but not that much

I don't see how it would be easier. Being smuggled through the border then having to stay hidden as illegal immigrant, vs entering EU through a "dangerous" boat ride just off the African coast, get a ride from the human trafficking NGOs, then enter and remain legally anywhere in EU as a refugee.

Why enter illegally when you can enter legaly and stay there?

I mean, I was looking into the documents necessary for me to visit the UK a few years ago and it was ridiculously easy

Also, I guess Portugal is making it easier for Brazilians to stay there(I have to check this to be sure)

Sorry, I don't know where you're from, I have no context for what you said.

I'm from Brazil

Brazilians can enter EU for tourism without a visa, right?

Brazil is easily the most corrupt south American nation

Pretty much

Not the most, Bolívia might be the worse

Or Venezuela too

Brazil has a lot of potential

Yeah

I remember some diplomatic shit when Spain decided to not let Brazilians in without visas.

It could become a regional powerhouse

Oh, I've seen it

They kept people at the airport for a week or two

Brazil is a powerhouse in South America, but with the current crisis and the mismanagement of decades, it's getting really bad

How come they are so impotent?

Brazil has like the entire government being investigated for organized crime or something.

For corruption

Impotent about what?

With their governing

People don't give a shit

It's pretty much this

Social programs to keep electorate under control. That was what the president was bragging about at the UN.

At least they didn't pull the "let me starve the population to death" like Zimbabwe.
