(-SP) made a new turnover in Washington this week to reinforce the government requests for sanction against the minister, (Supreme Court).
Accompanied with (PL) by PGR (Attorney General’s Office) on charges of participating in a coup plot, Eduardo had meetings at the White House, in the State Department and with an ally near Trump.
The meetings were last Wednesday (2), the same day that the American president
A Sheet failed to contact the licensed parliamentarian this week. But in a statement prior to the report, he said business relations were not a theme of his US onslaught, concentrated on what he calls complaints from Moraes’s attitudes.
This Friday (4), Eduardo said in a post on social networks that he does not see Trump’s fees as retaliatory and that President Lula should lower import taxes. The licensed deputy is against the retaliation project approved by the Brazilian Congress. “I’m not in favor of tariffs, but I’m fair and honest enough to see that what Trump is doing is not retaliation,” he said.
He then stated that Brazil charges more from American products than the opposite. “He is simply balanced what Brazil does with American products.”
In the meetings with diplomats, whose names were not revealed, the request was for the cancellation of the Supreme Court visa, going beyond the figure of magistrate. The request in the agency, which is equivalent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Brazil, is to be prevented from entering the US several authorities who have collaborated with what Bolsonarists see as attacks on freedom of expression in the country.
This would include all STF ministers, the Attorney General of the Republic, Paulo Gonet, and delegates.
The US State Department has taken unilateral attitudes for the power to control visa approval, and has already sanctioned some foreign authorities
According to members of the nos articulation, this is one of the fronts of action.
The other is to get a more extreme sanction and focused only on Moraes by the White House. There would be a draft of decree imposing on the STF minister punishments such as those applied to the Attorney of the International Criminal Court, Karim Khan, in retaliation for the arrest warrant against Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.
Khan cannot enter the US and received a sanction from OFAC, a foreign asset control office, which belongs to the US Treasury Department. With this, he had any goods in the US blocked and was prevented from making transactions with US institutions. Trump’s decree determining the sanction was issued in February.
There are two ways of the order against Moraes going forward, one faster, another slower. One would be that all the organs involved in the action were related. And so Eduardo and Paulo were also to the State and Justice Department in search of backing so that then the case will be dispatched with Trump so that he gives the endorsement to the publication.
Another would be that the US president himself determined the application of the sanction at once, regardless of the position of the organs, which could accelerate the process. This was one of the reasons why the duo found Jason Miller, who was Trump’s senior advisor during the campaign and is close to the president.

The minister suspected that Gettr, a social network Miller tried to publicize in Brazil, was becoming a refuge for Bolsonarist extremists.
This week, Miller registered the meeting with Eduardo on social networks and wrote: “Guess who is back?”. The expectation of the group that calls for sanctions to Moraes is that the former advisor can directly intercede with Trump for a measure, as the US president is facing a number of other important decisions to make at his beginning of government.
Last year, after a decision by Moraes determining the suspension of X (former Twitter) for non-compliance with his orders, Miller wrote that the minister is a “threat to democracy.”
After licensing, Eduardo has shown his own case as an attempt to exemplify that there would be censorship in Brazil. He says he has abdicated his mandate temporarily and remained in the US for fear of having his passport seized by order of the STF minister.
The licensed deputy faced a passport seizure request requested by the PT, which was filed on the same day he announced that he would remain in the US in March.
Paulo Figueiredo also details his case to the American authorities, reporting that he had his networks suspended and his passport canceled by the statements he was borne.
Eduardo is with his family in a city in Texas. THE Sheet He said he studied asking for political asylum in the country and would still decide how to stay financially. For now, he said he would depend on financial reserves, help from friends and father.
In addition to the sanction options in the State Department and the White House, there is also the expectation that Moraes. The other alternative would be the one who violated the amendment on freedom of expression provided for in the American Constitution.
