Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is set to speak with Donald Trump as tariffs loom.
The US President has said he will announce a 25% import tax on all steel and aluminium entering the country, on top of already existing metal duties.
He implemented a similar policy in his first term, but later granted partners like Australia duty-free quotas.
Australia Correspondent Donna Demaio told Andrew Dickens the Albanese Government has been preparing for such a decision.
She says it’s been reported that attempts to secure exemptions have been developed behind the scenes.
