Brazilian congress votes to impeach President Rousseff April 18, 2016 - 16:41 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Parliament in Brazil has voted to start impeachment proceedings against President Dilma Rousseff over charges of manipulating government accounts, BBC News reports. The "yes" camp comfortably won the required two-thirds majority in the vote in the lower house in Brasilia. The motion will now go to the upper house, the Senate, which is expected to suspend Ms Rousseff next month while it carries out a formal trial.
