Anthony Albanese discusses tariff exemption for Australian steel with Trump after US imposes 25% tariff on imports.

In Short

Anthony Albanese spoke with US President Donald Trump about potential tariff exemptions for Australian steel following Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on steel imports. Albanese emphasised the importance of the US-Australia alliance and pledged to advocate for Australia’s trade interests diplomatically.

The discussion included the possibility of a tariff exemption for Australian steel exports, although the specifics remain undisclosed.

Mr Albanese described the conversation as positive, emphasising the diplomatic approach required to advance Australia’s interests.

He noted that they mutually agreed on wording, indicating that an exemption is “under consideration.”

Albanese reaffirmed his commitment to free and fair trade, stating that he would advocate for Australia’s exemption from tariffs and navigate differences diplomatically.

He expressed the importance of the longstanding US-Australia alliance for promoting regional peace and stability.

The call comes after President Trump announced a blanket 25 per cent tariff on all steel and aluminium imports, affecting Australia as well.

Despite previous exemptions during Trump’s first term, the recent announcement has prompted concerns.

While seeking a new exemption, Australian leaders are urging the US to reconsider the imposition of these tariffs.

Albanese’s assertion of standing up for Australia’s national interests resonates amid calls for a fair trade dialogue.

He concluded that tariffs ultimately impact the major buyers of Australian products rather than Australia itself.
