Finally, the team brings the conversation back to Australian shores, with Tarrant raising concerns over domestic defence priorities while Garman shares his concerns over the national security implications of Australia's sluggish economy.  Enjoy the podcast, The Contested Ground team

"O tarifaço não é o ponto de chegada. É o ponto de partida." Com essa declaração, o ministro da Fazenda, Fernando Haddad, deu o tom do dia seguinte após o decreto com o tarifaço de Donald Trump contra o Brasil. Para o governo brasileiro, a meta agora é proteger empresas e empregos — especialmente nos setores cujas exportações serão mais atingidas. Segundo o vice-presidente Geraldo Alckmin, um plano de ação está em curso para evitar prejuízos maiores. Mesmo com algum alívio inicial, a palavra de ordem segue sendo cautela. Neste episódio, Alan Severiano recebe Adriana Dupita e Christopher Garman para discutir as respostas e consequências ao tarifaço e à ofensiva política do presidente americano. Economista da Bloomberg para mercados emergentes, Adriana explica quais são os setores mais e menos atingidos pelas tarifas de 50%. E responde quais oportunidades comerciais podem se abrir ao Brasil neste momento. Diretor-executivo das Américas da consultoria Eurasia, Garman avalia que a escalada política ainda deve piorar. Ele fala também sobre as respostas que o governo brasileiro pode dar aos EUA, e avalia que tipo de impacto o tarifaço terá em 2026.
