Prez Trump imposes 50% tariffs on Brazil after spat with Lula

US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday the US would impose a 50% tariff on all imports from Brazil after a spat this week with his Brazilian counterpart who called him an unwanted “emperor”.

- Reuters

Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva fired back on Wednesday, saying new tariffs would be met with reciprocal measures.

In a letter, Trump linked the tariffs to Brazil's treatment of former President Jair Bolsonaro, who is on trial over charges of plotting a coup to stop Lula from taking office in 2023.

The levies were imposed due “in part to Brazil's insidious attacks on Free Elections, and the fundamental Free Speech Rights of Americans”, the letter said.
