Trump has slapped Brazil with 50 percent tariffs in reaction to the prosecution of ex-President Jair Bolsonaro, a far-right ally.

Protesters have gathered on the streets of Brazil to denounce United States President Donald Trump for the steep tariffs he imposed on the country’s exports.

The demonstrations on Friday erupted in cities like Sao Paulo and Brasilia, as residents voiced their anger on the first day of Trump’s latest tariff campaign.

Brazil is slated to see some of the highest US tariffs in the world.
