“The president is implementing the agenda selected to carry out,” said Foreign Minister Won.
Foreign Minister Penny Won is convinced that Australia can navigate the threat of tariffs from US President Donald Trump.
Trump has recently revised its continuous trade imbalance and imposed tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China as part of his strategy to hinder illegal immigrants and drug Fentanil.
Won said he was doing exactly what the US President said he would do.
“My engagement when I was in Washington for the inauguration ceremony, including counterparts, secretaries (Marco) Rubio, and other members of the Trump administration, made me clear where I was sitting in Australia. “
“We are a country where the United States has a trade surplus, all products are entering from the United States based on the free trade agreement, and we enter Australia without duty, tariffs, or other barriers. Won has added that the United States has a trade surplus with us, “said Won.
Australia will find a way
Senator said that Australia had to confidently navigate the world.
“President Trump says he will do things in a different way, and he says he is doing a different way. This is not surprising, but he is confident in the ability to navigate it. I was very happy to get engaged with the Trump administration on behalf of Australia from the first day of the administration, “she said.
“I am grateful that there are many commentary on it, but I am a realist. Our government has been elected to the government, such as strengthening and deepening relationships with the United States. , Navigate as we navigated. “
Opposition parties say that Trump is a “man of action”
Meanwhile, Prosecutor Shadow has expressed his confidence that the coalition can actively work with Trump.
“He indicates that he is a man of action. He was overwhelmingly re -elected by the American people … American people are looking forward to their actions, and they are gained. And they will get exactly the same attitude under the Peter Daton government.
How does tariff work?
