President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (R) embraces retired Supreme Court judge, Nelson Jobim, after swearing him in as the new Defense Minister during a ceremony in Planalto Palace in Brasilia, July 25, 2007. Lula fired previous Defense Minister Waldir Pires, heeding calls for the removal of top aviation officials after nearly 200 people were killed last week in Brazil's worst air crash.
