“AMcham and US Chambers have also helped, so this partnership is very important to help us resolve this issue. I thanked President Alban for the commitment of the Brazilian and American private sector to clarify the United States government that it has no justification for this tariff,” Alckmin continued.

The vice president said there have been advances in recent weeks, with the removal of pulp and the tariff iron. He did not present news about Trump’s bilateral meeting with President Lula.

“If we talk so much in complementarity between the public and the private sector, they have and need to complement each other to be efficient and mitigate the gaps. We want to turn the challenges into opportunities and reach constructive discussions. The possibility of meeting the two presidents demonstrates the strength of this convergence,” said Alban, referring to the possibilities for bilateral negotiations related to datacenters, critical minerals and rare lands and sustainable fuel and fuel.
