Lula Urges Trump: Treat All Countries Equally Amid Tariff Disputes

• Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva urged Donald Trump to treat all countries equally after the US leader imposed a 15 percent tariff on imports.
• Lula stated, "We don't want a new Cold War. We don't want interference in any other country; we want all countries to be treated equally."
• The US Supreme Court ruled that a 1977 law Trump relied on for sudden tariffs "does not authorize the President to impose tariffs."
• Lula expressed hope for normalized Brazil-US relations and is expected to meet Trump in Washington next month.
• Brazil and India agreed to boost cooperation on critical minerals and rare earths, signing deals after Lula met PM Narendra Modi.
