Foram taxados exportadores de ferro e aço, vestuário, calçados, açúcar, etanol, produtos farmacêuticos, maquinário agrícola, máquinas elétricas não voltadas ao setor de aviação, além de outros produtos manufaturados. O USTR justificou a tarifa adicional dizendo que certas práticas adotadas pelo Brasil eram descabidas e oneravam ou restringiam o comércio de agricultores, trabalhadores, inovadores e exportadores estadunidenses. Uma sobretaxa adicional de 12,5% também foi aplicada na sequência sobre mais produtos nacionais, sob a alegação de que o Brasil não adota mecanismos eficazes para impedir a importação de mercadorias produzidas com trabalho forçado. Após isso, Rosa e Greer se reuniram, em ambiente virtual, no dia 31 de agosto, para iniciar uma nova etapa de renegociação das tarifas. A retomada das tratativas foi acertada durante telefonema entre os presidentes Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva e Donald Trump, ocorrido em 21 de agosto. A conversa durou cerca de uma hora e 20 minutos e, segundo o Palácio do Planalto, ocorreu de forma cordial. Os dois líderes abriram um novo canal de diálogo entre Brasília e Washington em meio à disputa comercial provocada pelas tarifas impostas pelo governo norte-americano sobre produtos brasileiros. >> Clique aqui e confira a cobertura sobre o tarifaço pela Agência Brasil
