It was not immediately 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: clear which verbal undertaking the administration was accusing us of breaking. 8 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: For now, though Donald Trumps standing firm. 9 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 2: It's twenty five percent without exceptions or exceptions, and that's 10 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:41,400 Speaker 2: all countries, no matter where it comes from, all countries. 11 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: If made in the United States, however. 12 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 2: That is States of America. 13 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 1: There is no trap tariff for zero Well, the opposition 14 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,959 Speaker 1: says Australia's relationship with the US will be damaged if 15 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: we're not exempt from those tariffs.
