Brazilian President Lula da Silva criticizes US tariff on Brazilian goods, citing political motives.

Brazilian President Lula da Silva has criticized a 50% tariff on Brazilian imports imposed by former US President Trump, calling it "political" and "illogical." Lula emphasizes that Brazil's democracy and sovereignty are not negotiable, despite the tariff aimed at former President Bolsonaro, who was accused of trying to illegally hold power. The Brazilian Supreme Court ruled that Bolsonaro attempted a coup, leading to fears of further US sanctions.
