The first months of a new administration often provide clear indications of its political and economic direction. Donald Trump’s return to the presidency has marked a significant shift from previous administrations—and even from the policies of his first term (2017–2020)—especially regarding multilateralism and international trade.

After two months in office, Trump’s administration has already introduced a series of executive orders, foreign policy changes, and domestic policy redefinitions, impacting both Brazil and the global landscape. Issues such as potential revisions of trade agreements, restrictions on imports and exports, and threats of economic sanctions are reshaping the U.S. position on the global stage and could trigger ripple effects for trading partners, including Brazil. Moreover, the Brazil-U.S. relationship, which has historically fluctuated between strategic alignment and economic pragmatism, may face specific challenges depending on the new American government’s priorities.

Changes in U.S. monetary and fiscal policies, as well as the responses of major global economies to these measures, are critical factors in assessing the risks and opportunities that lie ahead. Therefore, this event will provide an in-depth analysis of the impacts of the Trump 2.0 administration on international trade and Brazil, offering expert insights to help the Brazilian private sector anticipate risks, identify opportunities, and adapt its strategies.
