Brazilian President Louise Inazio Lula said to Silva that he was ready to comply with any tariffs imposed by the United States in Brazil.
Loule responded to the threat on Wednesday to his American colleagues Donald Trump to Implementation of 50% of Brazilian import tax has been imposed since August 1.
In a letter to Trump, he called the treatment of Brazil’s former President Jiri Balsanar as a trigger for the tariff hike.
Currently, Bolsonar is being tried for allegedly trying to take a coup against Lula after he was defeated in the 2022 elections.
Trump called Balsanar “a highly respected leader worldwide”. “This court should not happen,” he wrote, calling for Brazil to finish “witch hunting” against the former president immediately.
Trump Bolsonar’s support was not a surprise, as two men have long been considered allies.
On Monday, the US president already crashed into Brazil for the treatment of the Balsanar, comparing it to the trial cases he encountered in the US courts.
President Lule Lule Loul met 50% of the tariff threat.
In a report on X, he stressed that Brazil was “a sovereign country with independent institutions and does not take any care.”
The Brazilian leader also announced that “any unilateral tariff increase” will be met with mutual tariffs imposed on US goods.
The United States is the second largest trading partner in Brazil after China, so the trip from the tariff rate of 10% to the eyes 50% – if it came into force – would greatly impress the South American nation.
But Lula also disputed Trump’s statement that the US had a trade shortage with Brazil, calling it “inaccurate”.
Refute Lula backed up by US government governmentThis suggests that in the US in 2024 in Brazil in Brazil, $ 7.4 billion (5.4 billion pounds).
Brazil is the 15th largest trading partner of the United States, and among the main imports from the US – mineral fuels, planes and machines.
For its part, the US imports gas and oil, iron and coffee from Brazil.
On Wednesday, Brazil was not the only country that threatened higher tariffs.
Japan, South Korea and Sri -Lanka were among 22 countries that received letters that warn of higher levies.
But a letter sent to Brazilian colleague was the only one -oriented question on the alleged trade deficit.
Also announcing the treatment of the ex-president of Bolsonar, Trump crashed that there were “secret and illegal censorship orders for social media platforms”, which he said.
The Trump Media, which manages the social platform of the US president and is the majority, is one of it, is one of the US technology companies fighting the Brazilian court rulings for orders that suspend social media accounts.
Lula also reflected on this front, justifying the rulings, claiming that “Brazilian society rejects hated content, racism, children’s pornography, fraud, fraud and human rights and democratic freedom.”
Rafael Cortes, political scientist from the Brazilian consulting firm Tendências Consultoria, said the BBC News Brasil that, not hurt him, the excessively political tone of Trump’s letter may benefit Lule.
“Those who face Trump wins at home when Trump and other conservative leaders express themselves on issues concerning their countries. This happened to a certain extent in Mexico and elections in Canada and Australia,” Cheretez said of other leaders who challenged Trump and rewarded.
The Creomar de Souza, at a political risk counseling, reported the BBC News Mariana Schreiber that it would depend on the Lula government will come an organized and united answer if it “scores” against Trump.
