The 2025 Brazil–United States diplomatic dispute occurred between June and October 2025 between the government of Brazil and the government of the United States. It started when US President Donald Trump imposed a 50 percent tariff on Brazilian goods, as well as imposing the Magnitsky law against Brazilian Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes, the main judge behind the trial of the individuals involved in the 8 January Brasília attacks, and those involved in a coup plot after Jair Bolsonaro lost the 2022 Brazilian presidential election to Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.[1] Other measures included revoking the US visas for 8 of the 11 justices of the Brazilian Supreme Court,[2][3][4] officials involved in the program "Mais Médicos" (More Doctors) - a program that brought Cuban doctors to Brazil - including Brazilian Health minister Alexandre Padilha,[5][6] as well as other Brazilian political figures.[7][8][9] The Trump administration also targeted the Pix instant payment system managed by the Brazilian Central Bank, and also investigated accusations of piracy at the Rua 25 de Março (March 25th Street).[10] It also looked into Brazil's role in the BRICS.[11]
