TL/DR –
President Trump’s actions towards Brazil have been seen as bullying by some, with tariffs and a trade investigation causing increased tension. The tariffs have increased the popularity of Brazil’s former leader, Lula, and worsened his legal troubles. On Brazil’s side, Lula stated he wouldn’t take orders from Trump and referred to the tariffs as blackmail, while the current president stated that Trump is not ‘the emperor of the world’.
