In 2010 the general election was the focus of the Brazilian politics. Based on the economic and social achievements of the Lula government in past 8 years，Dilma Rosseff，the presidential candidate of the ruling PT party，won the presidential election as people expected. The ruling coalition took advantage of the opportunity to broaden its lead in the Congress. Economically Brazil realized the fastest growth since the 1970s whose GDP growth rate exceeded 7%. In the social field，it succeeded in decreasing poverty rate and reducing income polarization. Diplomatically Brazil focused the attention on the regional integration and South-South relations and vigorously promoted its participation into global affairs.
