Brazil Is One Step Away From Issuing Visas for Americans, Canadians, Japanese, and Australians Without Requiring Reciprocity. The Decree Would Be Made Possible Thanks to a Loophole in the Immigration Law; Brazilians Still Need a Visa to Visit Those Countries.

Ready to be approved by President Jair Bolsonaro is the draft of the presidential decree that will allow visas for Americans, Canadians, Japanese, and Australians without requiring reciprocity from this group of countries considered strategic for tourism in Brazil. Tourists from these countries will be able to enter Brazil without applying for authorization, and the same will not happen for Brazilians wishing to enter those countries. The non-requirement of reciprocity has a loophole in Article 9 of the Immigration Law, which states that the regulations provide for hypotheses and conditions of reciprocal or unilateral visa exemption. The topic was discussed in a meeting attended by the Minister of Tourism, Marcelo Álvaro Antônio, and the Minister of Foreign Relations, Ernesto Araújo.

The changes were attempted during Michel Temer’s administration but were blocked by the Itamaraty. Opposed to the measure, former chancellor Aloysio Nunes managed to prevent its implementation, even with the change in the law. The government then adopted an electronic visa for these four countries.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Cristiano Ronaldo builds a billion-dollar mansion in Portugal with 54,000 square feet, a 3-acre plot facing the Atlantic, private spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and an estimated value of an impressive R$ 385 million.

While Brazil has been dragging its feet on the Rio-São Paulo bullet train for 30 years, California has turned its own into a zombie project: 18 years, $126 billion, 60 viaducts completed, and zero meters of track laid, with Trump cutting $4 billion in July.

While Brazil has been discussing the Maracanã renovation for 25 years and struggles to keep the Arena MorumBis open, Abu Dhabi signs a $1.7 billion deal to build the world’s second Sphere on an artificial island, with 20,000 seats, by 2029.

Brazil erects a digital wall along 16,886 km of borders with 10 countries, using sensors, radars, military communications, and the Army’s decision-making system to protect one of the largest land stretches on the planet and showcase the technological strength of national defense.

For the first time in history, a submarine cable will descend to four thousand meters deep under the ice of the North Pole to ensure that the internet between Europe and Asia no longer depends on conflict zones in the Middle East.
