Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has issued a sharp rebuke to the United States after President Donald Trump threatened to impose 50% tariffs on Brazilian goods. Calling the move "unacceptable blackmail," Lula defended Brazil's sovereignty. He also warned that Washington had no right to interfere in the country's domestic affairs, especially in matters related to the trial of former president Jair Bolsonaro. He also pledged to challenge any future tariffs at the World Trade Organisation. The White House responded by calling Trump "a strong leader" and "the leader of the free world." The escalating trade row has become a central issue in Lula's re-election campaign, raising tensions between Brasília and Washington. Watch to know more.
