BRASILIA: Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has rejected a $22 million aid package offered by G7 countries to help battle fierce forest fires in the Amazon rainforest, which is often regarded as the planet’s “lungs”.
The G7 aid offer was announced by French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday.
Rejecting the aid, Bolsonaro on late Monday said Brazil was not a “colonial territory” and that there was “a hidden agenda” behind Macron’s offer.
