US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday implementing an additional 40 percent tariff on Brazilian products, bringing the total trade duties to 50 percent, the White House announced.
Trump had threatened Latin America's largest economy with the move as punishment for what he has termed a "witch hunt" against his far-right ally, former president Jair Bolsonaro.
