U.S. Revokes Brazil Ambassador's Visa | Tulsa News

Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description

The U.S. just revoked Brazil’s ambassador’s visa in a fiery diplomatic showdown — a direct hit after Brazil denied visas to two American diplomats ahead of their elections, calling their visit politically motivated. Brazil’s hold-up on approving America’s new ambassador nominee, former Florida House Speaker Danny Perez, has only escalated tensions. The U.S. is demanding reciprocity: if Brazil accepts Perez, the ambassador’s visa can be restored. Brazil claims the U.S. diplomats planned to criticize President Lula’s election, but Washington calls that nonsense — it was just routine business. With Brazil’s October election looming and Senator Flávio Bolsonaro (Bolsonaro’s son) running against Lula, political stakes are sky-high, with tariffs and drug-trafficking accusations adding fuel to the fire.
