Summary
Brasília responded swiftly and condemned the US move as an escalation of a diplomatic standoff. The US state department said Maria Luiza Ribeiro Viotti's visa had been cancelled in retaliation for Brazil's refusal to approve Trump's nominee for ambassador in Brasília and its decision last month to deny visas to two US diplomats seeking to visit ahead of an October election. In addition to stalling on Perez, Brazil denied visas last month for Riley Barnes, the assistant secretary of state for democracy, human rights and labor, and one of his top aides after reports emerged that the pair were going to criticize Lula or the election process.
Furthermore, The Trump administration revoked the visa of Brazil's U.S. ambassador Tuesday — the latest jab in a monthslong diplomatic spat between the two countries. In July, Brazil also denied visas to two U.S. officials, accusing them of plotting to meddle in Brazil's electoral process. “This week we had to deny visas to two young folks they were sending to Brazil to meddle in Brazil's elections,” Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva said at an event last Wednesday. The ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Brazil also include the levying of 25% tariffs on imports from Brazil last month, with Washington citing what it called unfair trade practices, including its rules regulating U.S. tech platforms.
In addition, Lula also harshly criticized that move, saying at a public event, "We will not accept being treated like children, we will not accept being treated as if we were a banana republic," according to Reuters, accusing Rubio of saying "that our criminals are terrorists and that Americans can intervene.". Brazil's denial of the visas came after Flavio Bolsonaro renewed unfounded claims that the country's electronic voting system was insecure, and as Trump continues to falsely claim that widespread fraud cost him a 2020 electoral win. ZUMAPRESS.com The Trump administration also imposed an up to 37.5% tariff hike on thousands of Brazilian exports, which came into force Friday.
Moreover, His son, Sen. Bolsonaro, has recently repeated some of these claims, although he steered clear of those on Saturday when his Liberal Party confirmed him as a presidential candidate in Sao Paulo.
