Trump said there will be further rates for countries in line with the “anti -American policies of the Bric”; Lula replied: “If Trump can tax, we can too”
THE Brazil It can be influenced by the last threat of the president of United States, Donald Trumpto be taxed in a additional rate Of 10% of any country that “aligns with the anti -American policies of Brics” and has promised to give a change if punished.
For analysts, even if it is a risk, it is difficult to measure it, since commercial relations are still covered by uncertainty on the eve of the end of the pause of the Washington rate.
Trump announced on Sunday 6 that he could adopt a new rate for Brics countries, attracting the spotlight in parallel to the block of the block, held in Rio de Janeiro, under the Brazilian presidency.
The group has Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arabian Arabic and Indonesia as a member.
“Any country that aligns with Brics’ anti -American policies will be subjected to a further 10%rate. There will be no exceptions to this policy,” Trump wrote in his socially trut network, not to mention Brazil last night.
For the American analyst of the BMO Capital Bank, Ian Lygen of Bmo Capital, although places on social networks do not translate into immediate national policies, in the case of Trump, it is difficult to ignore them.
Furthermore, the fact that the Republican has not mentioned specific countries or a program for the adoption of the new rate can make the commercial committee even “more demanding” in its vision.
“Brazil is certainly one of the Brics countries, not a country that I would say that it has positioned itself ideologically aligned with the Trump administration. So it is right to say that this threat could be applied to Brazil”, says the co-car of Latin America The sovereign titles of Latin America Estadão/Transmission.
Brazil was taxed by 10% by Trump’s mutual rates, announced on April 2, which became known as “Liberation Day”, with among the countries less affected by the new commercial policies of Washington.
But then the Republican announced a 90 -day break for negotiations, maintaining the level of 10% for all countries, which was equivalent to Brazil to others.
President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva (PT) said that Brazil is “sovereign” and can also tax the United States. “If Trump can tax, we can also tax,” said the Brazilian, during the Brics summit, which takes place in Rio de Janeiro.
In the American press, rumors circulate according to which the Trump government does not intend to immediately impose a new 10% rate against the members of Brics.
However, as clarified in its publication, the Republican intends to satisfy the threat to the countries that adopt “anti -American” measures.
Karoline Leavitt, secretary and spokesman for the communication of the White House, said that Trump monitored the “Brics” top “.
“That’s why he himself has released a declaration. He does not realize that these countries are strengthening, but he sees them only as an attempt to undermine the interests of the United States. This is not acceptable for him, no matter how strong or weak a country is,” he said.
The rates were not discussed during the block meeting, according to Lula. “Nobody touched this, it’s as if nobody spoke, we didn’t give us importance,” he said.
For Fitch’s Martinez, there are still many uncertainties about the commercial policies that the United States should adopt after the end of the tariff. “We are not very clear about these threats, which continue to emerge and disappear. There is a lot of uncertainty about all this,” he concludes.
