US President Trump imposed a 50% tariff on all imports from Brazil on July 10 after a recent spat with his Brazilian counterpart. Trump’s move marked a sharp escalation in a diplomatic feud over Brazil’s prosecution of former president Jair Bolsonaro’s trial. In a letter, Trump linked the tariffs to Brazil's treatment of Bolsonaro, who is on trial over charges of plotting a coup to stop Lula from taking office in 2023. Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva hit out at Trump, promising that the new tariffs would be met with reciprocal measures. Meanwhile, China said in response that "arbitrary" tariffs such as the 50-percent levy on copper "serve no party's interests." 0:00 - INTRODUCTION0:40 - TRUMP PUNISHES BRAZIL WITH 50% TARIFF AFTER SPAT WITH LULA2:42 - BRAZIL TO RESPOND TO TRUMP'S TARIFF WITH “RECIPROCITY”4:44 - TRUMP AND LULA CLASH OVER BOLSONARO’S “WITCH HUNT”n18oc_world n18oc_crux
