The new ministers of Mines and Energy, Ports, Cities and Tourism, are all Rousseff loyalists, who have all held senior positions in the government in the past and are thus seen as safe pairs of hands.
Eight ministers have quit Rousseff’s already fragile government in recent weeks in support of the impeachment against her. They are not members of her Workers’ Party.
The ministerial posts of Sports, National Integration, Civil Aviation and Science and Technology remain vacant.
