In your opinion Posted in New York TimesLula refused to describe US President Donald Trump from the trial as “witches hunting”, stating that it is “a historical decision that defends our institutions and democratic administration of the law”.
Brazilian leader said he wrote an essay to create an open and sincere dialogue with US President Donald Trump, which imposed 50% of Brazilian import tariffs.
Loule called the hike tariffs “not only wrong but also illogical.”
He said that over the past 15 years, the United States “has accumulated an excess of $ 410 billion (302 billion pounds) in bilateral trade in goods and services”, adding the decision to make tariffs can only be political.
“The US government uses Magnitsky’s tariffs and law to achieve the impunity of former President Jir Balsanar,” Lula wrote, citing sanctions that the United States introduced the Supreme Court, which brought the trial against Bolsonar.
The court ended on Thursday, when four of the five Supreme Court judges at the board, which instructed Bolsonar, found him guilty of all five accusations he encountered. There was a simple majority for condemnation.

“The trial was the result of the trial in accordance with the 1988 Brazil Constitution, adopted after two decades of fighting the military dictatorship,” he wrote, reminding the readers that Brazil’s democracy was restored in 1985 after 20 years of military power.

He completed his essay, addressing President Trump directly, telling his American colleague that Brazil remained open to the negotiations “all that could bring mutual benefits” but warned Trump that “Democracy Brazil and sovereignty is not on the table.”
