Trump Says Talks With Lula ‘Went Very Well,’ Tariffs Discussed
Overview
President Donald Trump met privately with Brazil’s Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva at the White House, and both leaders said the meeting "went very well," according to Trump and Lula.
The visit aimed to avert potential new U.S. tariffs after tensions last year over Trump’s tariff policy and amid a Section 301 probe into unfair trade practices.
The Office of the U.S. Trade Representative alleged nearly half of Brazil’s timber exports are from illegal sources, which the Lula administration denies.
Last year, Trump imposed 50 percent tariffs on Brazilian products, and Brazilian goods still face an extra 10 percent tariff set to expire in July.
Trump said representatives from both countries will meet over the coming months to continue discussions on trade and tariffs.
