Pele and Ronaldo also joined Blatter and Rousseff in the nation s capital. Brazil Sports Minister Aldo Rebelo, who threatened to cut the country s ties with the FIFA official in charge of working with the government, also attended the meeting. Pele is a World Cup ambassador, while Ronaldo is a member of the local organizing committee.
