  • Trump's Trade Threats Loom: Brazil Braces for Potential Tariff Escalation in 2025 US Presidential Race
    2025/07/11
    Welcome back to Brazil Tariff News and Tracker. It’s Friday, July 11, 2025, and today’s top story focuses on US-Brazil trade relations and the spotlight that former President Donald Trump has returned to tariffs as a key talking point in his campaign trail this summer.

    With the US presidential race heating up, many listeners are asking how a potential Trump administration could shake up international commerce, particularly with Brazil—South America’s largest economy and a crucial agricultural exporter. This week, Bloomberg reports that Trump is promising to revive tough tariff policies, targeting both friends and rivals alike. He specifically mentioned South American nations, including Brazil, as possible subjects of new tariffs on steel, aluminum, and even agricultural products, if elected.

    Currently, the United States maintains a range of tariffs on Brazilian goods, especially steel and aluminum. Following Trump’s 2018 decision under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act, Brazilian steel to the US has mostly been subject to quotas rather than direct tariffs, while aluminum faces a 10 percent tariff. According to the US International Trade Administration, those measures technically remain in place, although volumes have shifted due to ongoing negotiations and Brazilian government pressure.

    Meanwhile, Brazilian officials are closely monitoring Washington. Brazil’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs released a statement this week highlighting concerns that renewed tariffs and quota restrictions could hinder Brazil’s exports, particularly in agriculture and industrial metals. US soy imports from Brazil are also under the spotlight, as Trump’s campaign has floated the idea of retaliatory tariffs if Brazil boosts exports at the expense of US farmers, as reported by Reuters.

    On the business side, US trade groups—like the American Farm Bureau and the Steel Manufacturers Association—are watching developments closely. They caution that any aggressive tariff escalation could spark a trade dispute, ultimately raising costs for both US manufacturers and Brazilian exporters.

    In headline news, The Financial Times reports that Brazil’s government is preparing a contingency plan to counteract possible US tariffs, including options for reciprocal measures and diversification of export markets. Brazilian exporters are said to be on alert as the US election season stokes further policy uncertainty.

    To recap, while there have been no new tariffs implemented this week, the threat of renewed trade friction is front and center, with both US and Brazilian officials and industries preparing for possible policy shifts. We’ll keep tracking developments and bring you the latest on Brazil-US trade and tariffs as the 2024 US election approaches.

  • Trump Delays Brazil Tariffs Amid Economic Tensions, BRICS Summit Sparks Trade Uncertainty
    2025/07/09
    Welcome to Brazil Tariff News and Tracker, your go-to podcast for the latest updates on tariffs and trade policy affecting Brazil and its relationship with the United States.

    Listeners, the big headline this week is President Donald Trump’s decision to postpone the implementation of sweeping new tariffs on imports to the U.S. until August 1. According to World Footwear, the White House sent formal letters to 14 countries, including Brazil, specifying the new country-specific tariff rates. This action follows a previous announcement on April 2nd when Trump declared a national emergency over what he described as a large and persistent U.S. trade deficit and invoked the International Emergency Economic Powers Act to impose a baseline 10% tariff on all U.S. imports, effective since April 5th. The administration is also targeting 57 countries and territories with even higher rates, aiming to drive bilateral trade deficits to zero—a move described by several economists as one of the most significant shocks in trade policy history.

    The formula behind these so-called “reciprocal tariffs” is controversial, as the administration essentially divides a country’s bilateral trade deficit with the U.S. by the value of its exports, then applies half that result as the new tariff rate. This formula has been widely criticized by trade experts and economists, including from The Economist, who call it almost as random as taxing people based on the number of vowels in their name. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell recently described the likely economic impacts of these tariffs as “significantly larger than expected,” while the OECD and World Bank have downgraded U.S. growth projections in part due to this aggressive tariff policy.

    The recent BRICS Summit in Rio added further tension to the U.S.–Brazil trade relationship. Foreign Policy reports that Brazil, as summit host, tried to focus on economic development and climate initiatives to avoid provoking additional tariff threats from Trump, but the effort didn’t shield the group. Trump’s social media post threatened an extra 10% tariff on any country aligning themselves with the anti-American policies of BRICS. While the statement wasn’t entirely clear on which nations would be hit, the threat created anxiety among BRICS members and partners, particularly for Brazil—which has sought to maintain constructive ties with both Washington and fellow BRICS economies.

    Meanwhile, at a bilateral level, Economic Times of India reports that Brazil and India have just set a new trade target of $20 billion over the next five years and plan to elevate the level of trade talks. This includes enhanced cooperation across sectors like defense, agriculture, climate, critical minerals, and technology, with Brazil’s rich reserves of lithium, copper, and rare earths positioned as vital resources for India’s clean energy transition.

    In summary, Brazil faces the prospect of higher tariffs on its exports to the U.S. as of August, part of Trump’s broader effort to realign American trade policy and pressure economic partners. These developments place Brazil at a critical crossroads—balancing a growing BRICS role with the imperative to maintain open trade with the United States.

  • BRICS Summit Erupts as Trump Threatens Massive Tariffs Against Brazil and Allies in Global Trade Showdown
    2025/07/08
    Listeners, welcome back to Brazil Tariff News and Tracker. It’s Tuesday, July 8, 2025, and global headlines are dominated by sharp tariff threats from the U.S., escalating tensions between President Donald Trump and the Brazilian government.

    On Sunday night, President Trump made waves by announcing via Truth Social that any country aligning with what he calls the “anti-American” policies of the BRICS group—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—will be hit with an additional 10% tariff on exports to the United States. He warned there would be no exceptions, and specifically cautioned BRICS nations not to introduce alternatives to the U.S. dollar or back a new BRICS currency, threatening tariffs as high as 100% if they proceed with such moves. This threat landed squarely on the agenda at the BRICS summit, held this year in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

    Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva fired back immediately from the summit stage, calling Trump’s threats “irresponsible” and insisting Brazil will not be bullied. Lula said, “The world has changed. We don’t want an emperor.” He further emphasized BRICS’ desire to diversify global economic governance and reduce reliance on the dollar, making clear that Brazil is committed to a more multipolar world economy, according to statements covered by the Times of India and widely echoed in international press.

    The summit concluded with BRICS members—Brazil among them—signing a joint declaration criticizing the rising wave of tariffs for being inconsistent with World Trade Organization rules and warning that such measures threaten to reduce global trade, disrupt supply chains, and introduce uncertainty. Chinese and South African officials also condemned the use of tariffs as coercion, rejecting the label of “anti-American” and insisting their bloc seeks cooperation, not confrontation.

    While Trump’s administration had set a July 9 deadline for finalizing several key bilateral trade deals, including with China, Vietnam, and the UK, Brazil was pointedly not listed as having a new deal in place as of today. However, the White House announced an executive order yesterday delaying the imposition of new reciprocal tariffs previously set to go into effect July 9, signaling more negotiations may yet occur before any tariff hike is enforced.

    Meanwhile, Brazil’s B3 stock exchange fell by 1.26% yesterday, reflecting market anxiety over the rising trade tensions and global volatility—underscoring just how sensitive Brazil’s markets are to tariff news and international trade disputes.
