White House revokes visa of Brazil's US ambassador: reports
The move was in response to Brazil delaying formal diplomatic approval of the US ambassador to Brasilia and denying visas to several US diplomats.
Source excerpt
The administration of Donald Trump has moved to revoke the visa of Brazil's ambassador to the US, sources in the State Department told media outlets on Tuesday.
Ambassador Maria Luiza Ribeiro Viotti's visa revocation was reportedly in response to the denial of visas to two American diplomats who sought to visit Brazil ahead of upcoming elections.
The US has also accused the Brazilian government of stalling Trump's ambassadorial choice to the South American country.
State Department officials reportedly said the decision could be quickly reversed if Brazil takes appropriate action and accepts Trump's ambassadorial choice.
