MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The White House will serve Australian wine at a reception this week, US National Security Council has said, slamming China’s tariffs on the allied country’s vintners.
China slapped tariffs of up to 212 percent on Australian wine on Saturday, following an anti-dumping probe initiated at the behest of national winemakers. China is the biggest market for Australia’s wine, and its vintners are now seeking alternatives to Chinese consumers.
Bottles of Australian wine are seen at a store selling imported wine in Beijing, China November 27, 2020.
Under the Donald Trump administration, the United States has been entangled in a tariff war with Beijing in a bid to fix the bilateral trade deficit. Though the two countries struck the Phase 1 trade deal in January, a new spiral of tensions over the coronavirus pandemic has eclipsed efforts to bring positions on trade closer.
