Brasil eleva o tom contra tarifaço dos Estados Unidos

US TARIFF IMPOSITION — The Brazilian government has escalated its trade dispute with the United States, calling the American investigation accusing Brazil of failing to combat forced labor "arbitrary, incorrect, and without basis." The response was sent to the US Trade Representative on the same day that public hearings began in Washington regarding new tariffs on Brazilian products. The Brazilian Foreign Ministry (Itamaraty) asserts that the analysis disregards the evidence presented by Brazil and emphasizes that the country has one of the most advanced legislations in the world in combating forced labor. The investigation could result in an additional 12.5% ​​tariff, which is added to the proposed 25% surcharge based on another investigation into trade practices such as Pix (Brazil's instant payment system), digital commerce, ethanol, meat, and deforestation. If approved, the two measures will raise the tariff burden to 37.5% and could affect more than 4,000 Brazilian products. Brazil chose not to speak at the hearings in Washington and sent only diplomats to monitor the discussions. #GloboNews #J10 #TariffExcess #UnitedStates #Brazil ➡ Subscribe to our channel and activate the bell 🔔 to find out everything that's happening: http://glo.bo/4lQEsCL
