Lula expects more US tariff cuts after Trump call

Lula expects more US tariff cuts after Trump call

Brazilian President Lula and US President Trump had a phone call on Tuesday.

They talked about trade, the economy, and how to work together to fight organized crime.

Lula thanked Trump for taking away extra taxes on Brazilian foods like coffee and beef.

These taxes were put in place earlier because of some legal issues with a former Brazilian leader, Jair Bolsonaro, who is a friend of Trump.

Now, the taxes are gone, and both leaders are happy to be working together better.

Lula also said he expects more of these taxes to be removed soon.
