BRASILIA (Reuters) -Brazil’s government will seek a cooperation agreement with the U.S. to fight money laundering and the illegal export of weapons, Finance Minister Fernando Haddad told reporters on Thursday.
Haddad said U.S.-based funds are being used for money laundering and to disguise foreign investments in Brazil, after a high-profile police operation in the fuel sector uncovered entities incorporated in Delaware.
