Trump administration proposes 25% tariffs on Brazil despite US trade surplus
The Trump administration has proposed 25% tariffs on some imports from Brazil under Section 301 of the 1974 Trade Act, citing unreasonable trade practices like lax anti-corruption enforcement and unfair tariffs—even though the US holds a significant goods and services trade surplus with Brazil. Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has condemned the proposal, attributing it to electoral politics involving his rival Flávio Bolsonaro (son of former President Jair Bolsonaro), threatening retaliation, and criticizing US official Marco Rubio for undermining bilateral relations.
