“These mistakes and injustices should not be fixed with more injustices and errors. President Trump’s taxation on Brazilian products is a wrong and unfair measure. She needs to be reviewed,” Zema said on social networks.
The governor, who is already presidential to 2026, again defended Bolsonaro, said the Supreme Court “has been over the line” and said that there are attempts by the Lula administration of censoring the opposition to the petista in the networks, but added that this cannot harm the population.

“Brazilian companies and workers will pay, once again, Lula, Janja and STF’s bill. Ignoring good diplomacy, promoting persecution, censorship and still making cheap provocations will be expensive for Minas and Brazil,” he said, without other comments on the rates.
