The Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff has told the BBC she is the innocent victim of efforts to unseat her a week before the senate votes on whether to hold an impeachment1 trial. Ms. Rousseff said she intended to keep fighting her job even she is suspected from office. We're going to resist, resist and resist again. My supporters and I, we believe the impeachment process is illegitimate and illegal, based on a lie. Ms. Rousseff denies allegations that she illegally concealed2 the size of budget deficit3 ahead of her reelection in 2014. BBC's Daniel Gallas who's based in Sao Paulo says her situation is precarious4. The senators in the opposition5, they simply need a simple majority to get President Dilma Rousseff suspended from office. If that happens, she'd be suspended for about 6 months and there would be a trial.She would have a chance of coming back later in the year, but she would also face the serious prospects6 of being permanently7 removed from power right now. Things are not looking good for her.
