Brazilian scientific and technological research funding agencies are lost. They don't release funds until the researcher's interests align with those of European competitors, contradicting values ​​that could be used for our own national or local benefit. 

FAPESP itself confirms the misappropriation of R$ 5.3 million at Unicamp and is taking legal action against 34 researchers [1]. It is suspected that this may be due to the fact that our scientists are working under European influence and/or under European hierarchy. The case is naturally chronic for Brazilians who hold a degree from a European institution. 

Europeans manipulate the law more quickly than Brazilians, adapting to the financial market. Furthermore, Europeans have a competitive advantage in the law of the strongest: European legislation requires competitors to profit more than Europeans on the same product before receiving European funding. This will never happen for a product that benefits only Brazilians if there is a competitor in Europe. As in the case of Bioinformatics. 

It's the law of power. Blame the Brazilian leader who doesn't speak a second language, or a legislator without academic training. Blame the promiscuity in European legislation. Don't blame the Brazilian scientist, please.
