The United States announced that it will impose a new 25 percent customs duty on various products originating from Brazil, claiming that Brazil has engaged in unfair trade practices. Scheduled to go into effect on 22 July, this tax has further increased political and commercial tensions between the countries. The Brazilian government strongly condemned the decision and announced that retaliatory measures would be taken.
Washington's new trade restrictions exempt beef, coffee, and some products not produced in the US. The US administration claims that Brazil's deforestation policies and the free PIX digital payment system are putting American companies in a difficult position. Brazilian President Lula da Silva argued that trade between the countries is already largely fair, stating that the US is not negotiating fairly.
On the other hand, these tariffs have become a major political issue ahead of the presidential elections to be held in Brazil in October. Flavio Bolsonaro, the detained son of former right-wing leader Jair Bolsonaro, an ally of US President Donald Trump, suggested that the new taxes could politically strengthen current President Lula's election campaign.
