In 3 meetings with me, Trump will realize that Bolsonaro was nothing
Lula declared that he refuted Trump’s claim about Bolsonaro’s trial. The letter that announced the tariff in July criticized the case against the former president.
“I told him that the trial was a very serious trial, with very damning evidence,” said Lula. The president highlighted that those accused of the coup plot “were judged with the right to defense”, which he said he did not receive when he was prosecuted, and mentioned that a plan was discovered to kill him, assassinate the vice-president, Geraldo Alckmin, and the STF minister Alexandre de Moraes. Jair Bolsonaro was sentenced to 27 years and three months in prison.
And he (Trump) knows that a dead king is a king. He knows. Bolsonaro is part of the past of Brazilian politics. And I even said to him: ‘With three meetings you have with me, you will realize that Bolsonaro was nothing, practically’.

Agreement should come out in the next few weeks
Trump directed his teams to reach a trade deal with Brazil on tariffs in the “coming weeks.” The information was released today by Márcio Rosa, executive secretary of the MDIC (Ministry of Development, Industry, Commerce and Services).
Secretary stated that he reiterated to the North Americans yesterday, as per Lula’s instructions, that the taxation on Brazil needs to be reversed. He argued that the measures are based on unfounded and inadequate grounds. Rosa revealed that the PT member also repeated the arguments against taxing Trump during the bilateral meeting.
