브라질 리우 카니발 100년만에 무산 위기
Brazil is delaying its world-famous Rio carnival parade for the first time in over a century, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The event featuring tightly packed crowds dancing through the streets, draws millions of tourists from around the world every year.
But Rio's League of Samba Schools has indefinitely postponed the February 2021 event, saying the spread of the virus has made it impossible to safely hold the parades.
The last time the festival was suspended was back in 1912.
