Any impeachment process is, first and foremost, political, dealing with questions of power and influence. To be sure, political reforms such as the introduction of measures to significantly reduce the number of parties in Congress are urgently needed.

Dilma Rousseff is facing the end of her political career because she has utterly failed in this respect. </p>
