US Announces New 25% Tariffs on Brazil for ‘Unfair’ Trade Practices
- The United States will impose a 25% tariff on most Brazilian imports starting July 22 following a year-long Section 301 investigation into alleged unfair trade practices.
- Thousands of Brazilian goods will face tariffs, including sugar, machinery, apparel, and steel, with exemptions for coffee, beef, aircraft parts, and energy products to protect critical U.S. supply chains.
- Brazil strongly denied the allegations, with President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva calling the tariffs unjustified and pledging to challenge them at the World Trade Organization while continuing negotiations.
- The U.S. Trade Representative noted that Brazil's preferential tariff treatments with Mexico and India disadvantage U.S. exporters, and Washington remains open to negotiations if Brazil makes changes.
