Allies of the former president () admit, in privately, that there is political wear and tear for him and the political group with products imported from Brazil imposed by the President of, on Wednesday (9).
Trump’s decision is part of an offensive to defend Bolsonaro, and the American letter cites the former president directly.
There is an assessment among Bolsonaro’s allies that, for now, the Lula government () has been able to get the speech that the act hurts the sovereignty of the country. Although there is uncertainty about the economic and political consequences of Trump’s decision, pockets are already seeking to shield the former president of the crisis.
Bolsonaro himself did not directly comment on the increase in the fare against Brazil. In a publication on social networks, he ignored the subject and repeated argument that he is persecuted by the Brazilian justice – algo amplified by Trump. Then he wrote a proverb.
“When the righteous govern, the people rejoice. But when the wicked are in power, the people moan,” he published on social network. The former president is at home, recovering from esophagitis.
Still on Wednesday, the left ranked the “mutts” pockets, spoke of attack on national sovereignty and appealed for nationalism-the right to the right. According to members of the former president’s party PL, pockets still sought a way to circumvent the government’s narrative in the hours after Trump’s announcement.
An offensive has come to say that the 50% tariff applied by Trump is Lula’s fault, not Bolsonaro or even the licensed deputy (PL-SP), who works with US authorities for sanctions to STF ministers. The governor of São Paulo, Tarcisio de Freitas (Republicans), adopted a similar line.
But pockets have taken care of not exposing celebrations with the measure, and even regretting it-still they see as a victory which point out as Trump’s alignment to what they have defended in the international sphere.
On social networks and in the plenary, parliamentarians used exhaustion the phrase “It is Lula’s fault.” The argument involves the idea that the president did not know how to create diplomatic relationship with Trump’s management.
And furthermore, they argue that the fare is no response to Eduardo Bolsonaro’s political articulation in an attempt to distance him from the measure, and try to associate Trump’s decision with Lula’s statements at the BRICS summit earlier this week. At the meeting of the Bloc of Countries in Rio, the president again defended “a new international coin”, waving to a decalarization agenda.
Allies of the former president say this is a more than a political response to the Petista Administration.
“Because of the inability, lack of diplomacy and, above all, lack of respect for political opponents, the Lula government, coupled with China, Russia, Venezuela and Cuba and Iran itself, will suffer reprisals in the diplomatic field,” said Deputy Sanderson (PL-RS).
“The fault is exclusively from President Lula. It was not because of the trial that he applied the rates. In the letter he specifies, he says several points. The issue of censorship, the political alignment of Brazil today with the evil axis countries,” said Filipe Barros (PL-PR), chairman of the house’s Foreign Relations Commission.
Already in, (Republicans-RS) attributed Trump’s fare to what he called “successive fiascos of an inoculated diplomacy of outdated ideologies have a resulting disastrous for the country.”
Former minister of Bolsonaro and federal deputy Osmar Terra (PL-RS) said the Brazilian economy is already bad, because of the government. And if, if it gets worse, it will also be the fault of the government, not the tariff announced by Trump.
On Social Network X (Ex-Twitter), the federal deputy (PSOL-SP) called Trump’s fares of “Bolsonaro Rate” in publication with an assembly of Bolsonaro’s images using the trumpper movement “Make America Great Again” on the one hand, and Lula wearing a cap is with “Brazil is from Brazilians”, on the other.
The Minister (PT), of the Secretariat of Institutional Relations, also published in X, and associated Trump’s decision to Bolsonaro, as well as reinforcing the government’s speech on rich taxation.
“Lula’s project is to tax the super rich, Bolsonaro’s is to tax Brazil!” He wrote. “Bolsonaro’s subservience to the US is costing the country dearly. The lies he and his family spread over Brazil and the Supreme Court served as a pretext for Donald Trump to tax Brazilian exports.”
