Tracking Trump and Latin America: Trade
The U.S. Senate has voted against Brazil tariffs, sparking questions about the president's "America First" trade policy and its implications for the region.
U.S. President Donald Trump stated during his inauguration address on January 20:
"I will immediately begin the overhaul of our trade system to protect American workers and families."
Trump's "America First" approach to trade involves using tariffs and taxes on trade partners to aid the U.S. economy and negotiate actions from foreign governments.
In regards to Latin America, Trump officials, such as Secretary of State Marco Rubio, have focused on the economic competition between China and the United States in the region.
