Former Brazilian president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (1st, L) acts during the speech made by Dilma Rousseff at the Alvorada Palace after her impeachment by the Senate, in Brasilia, Brazil, on Aug. 31, 2016. The Brazilian Senate voted on Wednesday to strip Dilma Rousseff of the presidency by 61 votes in favor to 20 votes against. This means Rousseff is immediately and permanently removed from her role and Michel Temer, who assumed the interim presidency after Rousseff was suspended in May, will become president until the end of this term in 2018.
