Rio de Janeiro (AFP) - Brazilian Sports Aldo Rebelo admitted Tuesday the World Cup faced "serious" security problems -- but said the country would not be as dangerous as warzones like Iraq or Afghanistan.
"We all have our tragedies and challenges, serious problems relating to security," said Rebelo as he embarked upon a hyperbolic offensive to defend Brazil, racing to be ready to host the Cup from June 12.
"I think Brazil is far less exposed to this kind of religious and nationalistic violence," which has affected countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan, Rebelo said in a Rio address.
