The US will not impose tariffs on Brazilian steel and aluminum, as announced by Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro after a phone call with US President Donald Trump. Bolsonaro described the US as a great partner and highlighted a mutual friendship with Trump. Trump tweeted about the strong relationship between the two countries, though no formal agreement was announced. In early 2018, Trump had imposed global tariffs on steel and aluminum but later exempted some countries, including Brazil, which agreed to quotas. However, in December, the US reimposed tariffs on Brazilian and Argentine metals. Brazil is a major steel supplier to the US, second only to Canada.
