Anti-Trump Protests: A firestorm of protest has erupted at Brazil’s University of São Paulo as students, civil society groups, lawyers, and social leaders rally to defend Brazilian sovereignty against a fresh round of punitive U.S. tariffs.
The protest, led by legal scholars like Celso Campilongo and Ana Elisa Bechara, targeted Donald Trump’s aggressive decision to impose a 50% tariff on Brazilian goods starting August 1 — a move widely seen as a political message to support his ally, Jair Bolsonaro.
Protesters gathered under banners proclaiming “Long Live Brazilian Sovereignty,” calling the move a direct attack on Brazil’s democracy and independence.
Tensions are soaring as Washington brushes aside a longstanding trade surplus and centuries-old ties.
The U.S. claims of judicial persecution against Bolsonaro have only fueled Brazil's outrage.
The message from São Paulo is clear: Brazil refuses to be intimidated.
The world is watching as the sovereignty battle unfolds.
