Solution
The statement is wrong.
Correct sentence: Brazil gets a lot of rainfall because of the South-East trade winds and the North East trade winds.
Explanation:
Brazil does not have a monsoon system. Instead, due to its equatorial and tropical location, the majority of its rainfall comes from the moisture-laden North-East and South-East Trade Winds blowing from the Atlantic Ocean. Rainfall in India, rather than Brazil, is caused by Southwest Monsoon winds.
