Brazil has an extradition agreement with the United States. Would love to see that shit get put to use.
That's not how extradition works. You have to give people up to the US criminal system. They don't reciprocate. They just promise not to coup your government.
Extradition treaties are almost always reciprocal and this particular treaty is publicly available. No public treaty is going to include a promise not to coup another government because of the obvious political consequences of admitting you might to everyone else.
In theory. But rarely in practice.
