Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Launches Trade Probe into Brazil Over 'Unfair Practices'
Caption: Trump Launches Trade Probe into Brazil Over ‘Unfair Practices’. The Trump administration has launched an official investigation into Brazil’s trade practices, accusing the country of policies that harm American businesses. The probe will examine Brazil’s digital trade rules, electronic payment systems, tariff policies and alleged interference in anti-corruption efforts, according to the US Trade Representative. President Trump also recently criticised Brazil for prosecuting former leader Jair Bolsonaro, calling it a “witch hunt”. US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said the investigation was ordered by Trump and aims to address Brazil’s so-called attacks on American tech firms and unfair advantages given to other trade partners. Greer warned the findings could lead to retaliatory action and accused Brazil of punishing US companies for refusing to censor political speech online.
