Lula criticized Trump's announcement of 50% tariffs on Brazilian imports, stressing that the Brazilian judiciary is independent and that Trump has no global authority. He warned that if Trump had acted similarly in Brazil, he would have been prosecuted for violating the Constitution. Brazilian officials said they would respond with similar measures, but Lula expressed a willingness to negotiate. Tensions have also escalated over a US trade investigation against Brazil.
