The sanctions come days before the U.S. is set to impose 50% tariffs on imports from Brazil, which are also partly in retaliation for Bolsonaro's ongoing criminal prosecution.

Brazil placed former president Jair Bolsonaro under house arrest Monday pending his trial for allegedly orchestrating a coup attempt following his election loss in 2022, The Associated Press reported Monday.

Former President Jair Bolsonaro is on trial before the Supreme Court on charges he conspired with allies to violently overturn his 2022 electoral loss to leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
