French President Emmanuel Macron - who hosted a G7 summit that ended on Monday - said $22m (18m) would be released.

But Brazilian ministers say the money is not needed and accuse foreign powers of wanting control of the Amazon.

Satellite data shows fires - mostly in the Amazon - are burning at record levels.

Commenting on the G7 offer of aid, Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro's chief of staff, Onyx Lorenzoni, told the Globo news website: "Thanks, but maybe those resources are more relevant to reforest Europe.


Tons more about how Bolsonaro has taken shots at Macron for awhile now among other crazy Bolsonaro shit.

Bolsonaro sucks.

Ya, I was trying to explain this to people, or not get into the debate at all.
Saw this coming a long way away. It's a shame.

This is what happens when you let a fascist with an interest in business get control of a massive natural resource. He promised this would happen.

The Amazon doesnt burn and rebuild, and the land thats being cleared by the fires is being taken over by farmers who want open fields (which is why they set the fires).


Then the problem is the farmers, not the fire.

Thats what he did with the Nazis. And then he kept complaining for months about getting modded for that.


Don't you think it's suspicious that the most terrifying groups in history lie to people a certain way to get in power? It's not a knock on liberal ideas, but a knock on surrendering your power to government and exercising extreme control in trying to accomplish your goals.

Outside the US, "liberal" tends to refer to economic liberalization and free market policies. In Australia, for example thr Liberal party is the rightward one of its major parties. The Liberal Democrats in the UK are closer to what we would call libertarians. Bolsonaro campaigned on anti-LGBT rhetoric, ramping up police violence and privatization. Using him as some sort of own on American liberals is not a good idea.

If that were the reason they did it, sure. But take a wild guess if Bolsonaro's administration gives a flying fuck whether the Amazonas is burning.
