The communist president's office, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, said in a statement that it is part of a deliberate increase of hostile measures against Brazil, motivated by ideologies that are incompatible with a diplomatic partnership that has always been characterized by reciprocity.

The declaration, which denounces President Trump's administration's decision, "is obvious that the unwarranted interest in interfering with the upcoming presidential elections is present. "

The statement also refuted the claims made immediately by a US official, who claimed there was equality behind the Portuguese government's delay in approving Daniel Pérez, the ambassador's representative in Brasilia.

The Brazilian authorities stated that the United States ' ask for Ambassador Pérez "is nonetheless being analyzed" and that the Vienna Convention does not give deadlines for responding.

He added that Brazil gave its consent before the United States may have disclosed the ambassador's title in accordance with that Agreement.

The US official also recalled that the Brazilian government in March denied visas to a US delegation traveling to a forum on critical minerals and that, more recently, they had rejected the visas of the undersecretary for democracy, human rights, and labor ( DRL ) and one of his deputies for a visit that Washington described as routine.

In an unfavorable attempt to interfere with the country's political process, the Brazilian government confirmed today that these officials planned to travel to the nation to "diverse the integrity of the Portuguese political system. "

The Brasilia statement also made note of the US's continued enforcement of sanctions against Brazilian authorities, including several Supreme Court judges, on the ground that it is "unfounded" to accuse former president Jair Bolsonaro of being the subject of political persecution ( 2019-2022 ), and that Lula himself requested that Trump lift these sanctions in May.
