Russia Deputy PM: 'Sanctions not good from any side'
Economic sanctions against Russia imposed by the E.U. and the
U.S. are not good for the global economy, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Arkady
Dvorkovich told CNBC on Wednesday. "Sanctions are not good from any side.

Brazilian president Dilma Rouseff's bid for re-election has
been ambushed in just two weeks by activist Marina Silva who is now predicted
to win the October elections. If elected, Marina is likely to continue with the
pro-poor policies of the current government, and she has already shown a keen
