आंकड़ों में
Brazilian Treasury Secretary Dario Durigan announced that the Reciprocity Law process could be restarted if the US officially approves new customs tariffs on Brazilian products. This law allows for equivalent measures to be taken against countries that impose unilateral trade barriers on Brazil. However, for such a step to be taken, the approval of President Lula da Silva is required.
The process regarding the US decision will end on Wednesday, July 15, and the Brazilian government is waiting for the official announcement. Durigan emphasized that a possible response will be calibrated cautiously and that no hasty step will be taken until the affected sectors are clarified. Additionally, the Ministry of Commerce continues its discussions with American officials to prevent the trade dispute from escalating.
To mitigate the negative impacts of the trade war on the Brazilian economy, the government may also prepare support packages for affected exporters. Issuing a new Decree-Law similar to the "Sovereign Brazil" program, previously created to compensate for damages, is among the options on the table.
