SYDNEY: Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Sunday (July 27) that a decision to ease rules on US beef imports was not prompted by US President Donald Trump.
Trump this week said the US would sell "so much" beef to Australia after Canberra announced the relaxation of restrictions, potentially smoothing trade talks with Washington.
