Petrobras CEO irked by US spying
Xinhua, September 19, 2013
Maria das Gracas Silva Foster, CEO of Brazil's state-owned oil giant Petrobras, said Wednesday that alleged attempts by U.S. intelligence to spy on the country's strategic oil data have failed.
Addressing a senate hearing, Silva Foster said she was nevertheless concerned by revelations that the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) intercepted digital communications between Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff and top aides, and those from the oil company.
So far, there are no signs that the NSA had managed to access or retrieve any information from the company, she said.
"To think we were breached, we have to have a record or evidence of that breach, and a sign that something was captured. For now, we don't have that," she told lawmakers.
