Between betrayals and interference<\/h3>\n\n\nBolsonaro’s son moved<\/a> to the U.S. last March, from where he has deployed an agenda focused on getting the support of President Donald Trump to stop the criminal proceedings against his father, who the Justice system accuses of having been part of a failed coup attempt perpetrated in January 2023.\n\nOn July 10th, Eduardo Bolsonaro posted on X a post<\/a> of support for Trump’s decision<\/strong> to impose<\/a> tariffs on Brazil. He then stated that the American president had been “clear” in explaining his reasons, which include an alleged “persecution” against the former ruler, his family members and his supporters, alleged human rights violations, lack of “freedom of expression” and “free and transparent elections”, accusations that have been denied by Brasilia.\n\nFor his part, Da Silva reiterated that the Brazilian Supreme Federal Court is independent<\/strong> and that it is now prosecuting the former president based on legal evidence and statements<\/a> offered by military personnel who worked alongside him.\n\nThe legal case against Bolsonaro has become a source of friction with Washington, which used it as an argument to justify the imposition of 50% tariffs against the South American giant. “This is not a minor interference<\/a> <\/strong>: it is the US president believing he can dictate the rules to a sovereign country like Brazil”, Lula pointed out<\/a> this Wednesday.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
