Bolsonaro Family US Tariffs Accusation Rocks Brazil
Gleisi Hoffmann, a federal deputy from Brazil's Workers' Party, accused the Bolsonaro family of lobbying for 25% US tariffs on Brazilian products, citing the Pix payment system as a restriction on American commerce. The US imposed tariffs, but Hoffmann provided no evidence of lobbying, and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro denied the allegations.
