(Townhall)—Australia’s decision to lift its long-standing import ban on U.S. beef isn’t just a win for American farmers, but proof that President Donald Trump’s America-first agenda is working. After President Trump threatened tariffs and called out Australia’s “non-scientific trade barriers,” Canberra removed the last hurdles, including those from Canada and Mexico. This marks a significant victory for U.S. agriculture and a clear indication that tough negotiation yields results. This comes after Trump threatened a ten percent tariff increase on Australian exports.
The decision represents a reversal by Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s left-leaning Labor government, which had reaffirmed in April its refusal to yield to U.S. demands while President Trump insisted on full access for American beef. However, the easing of restrictions on U.S. beef imports has been celebrated by the White House as a significant win against “non-scientific trade barriers” that had sidelined American farmers for the past two decades.
Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins praised the change as a victory for “American farmers and ranchers” who produce “the safest, healthiest beef in the world.
“Gone are the days of putting American farmers on the sidelines. This is yet another example of the kind of market access the President negotiates to bring America into a new golden age of prosperity, with American agriculture leading the way,” Rollins said.
