BREAKING: Brazilian President Bolsonaro says Brazil will only accept an offer of international aid to fight Amazon fires if French President Macron retracts some comments. Bolsonaro says Macron had called him a liar and questioned Brazil's sovereignty. https://t.co/OoYYf3mGqd

Putting aside all the "lungs of the earth" language about where 20% of our oxygen comes from, so help me, fire is not popular. Nor is Bolsonaro, really. The dude needs to get a grip.
UPDATE: And yes, this is far too serious for a grown man to make a petty chest thumping thing over.

What did the French guy do, fart in his general direction?
I honestly think this is a mean-spirited tit-for-tat with Macron because Macron called him out for insulting his wife (which is in itself dumb, because Bolsonaro was already in the wrong). But the spite--apologize, or I will let my own country burn!
