It seems incredible that Brazil would joining in any power block with Russia. That would indeed be trouble, and I doubt the US would stand idly by. Because as Brazil goes, so goes much of South America, the old domino effect.

To me, it seems just way out right now. I am not sure how much trade there is between Brazil and US, but I will venture it is much larger than Brazil/Russia. Russia doesn't need Brazil's resources. India and China maybe, but Russia? Strategically, it would make the US very uncomfortable and irritated, and Cuba knows what an uncomfortable irritated US can do.
