NEW YORK—A new round of U.S. sanctions related to Brazilian authorities was imposed on Sept. 22—the same day lawmaker Eduardo Bolsonaro, son of former President Jair Bolsonaro, was charged with coercion. The indictment is part of related legal cases U.S. President Donald Trump previously called a “witch hunt.”
Eduardo Bolsonaro spoke to The Epoch Times as talks between Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Trump are now expected within days, following a brief encounter at the United Nations General Assembly on Sept. 23.
