In a new episode of the geopolitical trade war, featuring South American countries and their productions, the United States Senate recently approved a measure that suspends the application of extra tariffs on products coming from Brazil, which had been pushed by the president of that country, Donald Tump, as a trade measure with foreign countries.

In September, Brazil exported 315 thousand tons, with 60% of that volume going to China and only 2.5% to the United States, according to its foreign trade statistics. Between January and September, it had exported 2.1 million tons, which represented a 16% increase in volume. The revenue totaled 11.4 billion dollars and grew by 37%.
