Trump wrote today (July 25): "For years, Australia has finally agreed to accept American beef! For a long time, despite the fact that we are good friends, they actually banned our beef. Now, we will export a large amount to Australia, because this undeniably proves that American beef is the safest and best in the world. Other countries that have refused our high-quality beef have been notified. All of our ranchers in the country, who are hardworking and the best people, are smiling today, which means I am also smiling. Let's keep this momentum going. This is the golden age of America!"
[Witty] Comment: Trump's self-praising remarks clearly show his bullying attitude. Faced with his pressure, Australia finally agreed to accept American beef. Australian Prime Minister Albanese had previously stated multiple times that he would not trade the weakening of Australia's biosecurity for American tax exemptions. The Australian government now also denies that the decision to lift the restrictions is related to Trump's tariffs, stating it is the conclusion of Australia's ten-year review. Although it seems as if Australia has yielded, in reality, it is a normal act for each country to weigh its own interests and protect national interests. Trump publicizes this as a feat of America's "greatness" and makes threats to other countries, claiming that American beef is the best in the world, which is merely another manifestation of his trade bullying. He only sees the interests of the United States and completely ignores the fair rules of the international market. The so-called "golden age of America" is nothing more than a fantasy under his hegemonic thinking.
