💨 Abstract

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva demanded equal treatment in trade negotiations with the U.S., criticizing Washington's 50% tariff on Brazilian imports. While expressing openness to dialogue, Lula emphasized Brazil's economic importance and resolve. Meanwhile, the U.S. sanctioned Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, leading to protests in Brazil supporting ex-President Jair Bolsonaro.
