The EU needs to take real steps to counter massive American snooping, says a Belgian parliamentarian.
New reports say US President Barack Obama knew the NSA was spying on Angela Merkel as long ago as 2010.
Rousseff also warned the US that, "There will be a growing reaction" from countries targeted by the spying scandal.
President Francois Hollande told his American counterpart that the NSA's monitoring of communications was unacceptable.
This was the second time that Mexico complained to Washington about its overseas spying programme.
The new security system would not use foreign companies or networks.
Brazil's Mining Minister said spying could have served corporate interests.
Rousseff urged the UN to form a global body that would draft rules on privacy and security in cyberspace.
In India, at least 6.2 billion metadata of local and overseas phone communications was collected in just one month.
The Brazilian president has not received explanation why her phone calls were intercepted by Washington's NSA.
