Brazil said it will retaliate if the United States imposes 25% tariffs on some Brazilian products. The statement frames the potential duties as economically damaging and politically unnecessary, urging negotiations to avoid a broader trade conflict. Brazilian officials indicated they are preparing countermeasures that could target U.S. exports, with details depending on how Washington implements the tariffs. The move comes amid heightened trade sensitivity and stronger domestic pressure in both countries over jobs and market access.
