The speaker of Brazil’s lower house of Congress, Eduardo Cunha, broke with the government of President Dilma Rousseff on Friday over corruption allegations, deepening a political crisis in Latin America’s largest economy.
Cunha accused Rousseff’s government and prosecutor general Rodrigo Janot of conspiring to incriminate him in a widening corruption scandal at state-run oil firm Petrobras in which he is being investigated for taking bribes.
