The information was revealed in a press conference on Tuesday 15, by the vice president. ALLKmin spoke of the rates imposed by Donald Trump and what he did together with the economy and industry sectors to get around the rates. During the meeting, ways of reversing the 50% rate announced by Trump against Brazilian exports were discussed.
“There has always been a dialogue, I also spoke with Howard Lutnick, who is the secretary, with Ustr Ambassador, Itamarathy, so we sent a letter, at their request, confidential, of negotiation until July 4, in fact, also for a business meeting.
The negotiations between Brazilian and American government began after Trump taxed from 10% of Brazilian products and in 25% the steel and aluminum sold by Brazil to the US market in April. Since then, Brazil has tried to contact the United States without receiving an answer.
“We sent a letter two months ago, a confidential letter on relations with the agreement, on understanding, but we have not had a response, two months ago. So what we will send is a letter, and on the one hand we expect the answer and we still commit ourselves to solving this problem”, continued the vice president.
ALCKmin coordinates the Brazilian government negotiations in the face of Donald Trump’s measures that include high export rates. President Lula (PT) states that Brazil will be supported by the law on economic reciprocity, which authorizes the government to adopt proportional measures against the United States.
The new 50% rate announced by Trump begins to be valid on August 1st. Until then, ALCKmin has said that the dialogue with foreign trade will keep the dialogue and that the Brazilian industry is looking for the exits to reverse the increase in the rate.
