The United States sanctions Alexandre de Moraes.

The United States government has applied the Magnitsky Act against Supreme Court Minister Alexandre de Moraes. According to the U.S. Treasury, Moraes is accused of "censorship, arbitrary detentions, and political persecution," including against Jair Bolsonaro.

With the sanction, Moraes may have assets frozen, accounts blocked, and be denied entry to the United States.

The measure allows for the punishment of those responsible for corruption and human rights violations worldwide.
