The investigation, launched by the USTR, targets acts and policies of the Brazilian government that are considered discriminatory and affect trade with the US. It could lead to retaliatory measures, including customs surcharges, following preferential tariffs imposed by Brazil. President Trump recently announced a 50% surtax on Brazilian goods amid a dispute over the prosecution of former President Jair Bolsonaro, and Lula has warned that he will respond in accordance with Brazilian law.
