Summary
U.S. to impose 25% tariffs on Brazilian imports over unfair trade practices. The tariffs are being imposed under section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974, allowing the US to launch the investigation into Brazil’s trade practices. The U.S. Supreme Court in February ruled against many of Trump's tariffs imposed under a different law, the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of 1977.
Furthermore, Trump had under that law imposed a 50% tariff on Brazil to protest its prosecution of Jair Bolsonaro for trying to overturn his loss in a 2022 election. Bolsonaro had recently visited Washington and is the son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, a Trump ally. The US, however, has a good trade surprise with Brazil for years.
In addition, After U.S. officials in early June warns that they were proposing the tariffs, Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva reacted with indignation. The tariffs, which were first proposed last month, will take effect on 22 July. Brazil condemns US moves to impose 25% tariffs next week.
Moreover, The legislation authorizes Brazil to retaliate or apply equivalent surcharges against countries that impose unilateral trade barriers to Brazilian products.
