Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva called Trump on Friday. They spoke for 80 minutes.

The call aimed to restart tariff talks between the two countries. Trump agreed to keep negotiations open.

He proposed a quick meeting between officials from both governments. Lula and Trump plan to resume the talks soon.

The United States imposed tariffs on Brazil claiming unfair trade practices. Brazil disagrees with that claim.

Lula called the accusations unfounded. He said the tariffs hurt both countries.

Some products could face tariffs as high as 37.5%. The leaders also discussed organized crime and global conflicts. This dispute comes before Brazil's elections in October.
