Donald Trump’s top trade advisor has launched another blistering attack on Australia, claiming the country represents “frontal assaults” on America’s aluminium markets.
“Australia and Canada represent frontal assaults on our aluminium markets,” Peter Navarro said.
“(Australia’s) heavily subsidised smelters operate below cost, giving them an unfair dumping advantage, while Australia’s close ties to China further distort global aluminium trade.”
This comes as the federal government attempts to secure an exemption for Australia from America’s 25 per cent tariffs on steel and aluminium imports.

Ask Navarro about how much money goes to US dairy, pork and poultry farmers. He wants to dumo this stuff into Canada and destroy our producers because he lacks the balls to make US producers to manage their business to match capacity to demand.
Peter Navaro is brain dead. Everyday something different from Trump, next Trump will rename Canada Dry to American Dry. Trumps whole team are bunch of tossers
Trump and his adviser the cobies guy they both dump and idiots. Australia are far more better than your country that fall into a turmoil and crises. Australia is a prosperous nation like Canada and we don’t need US.
Unbelievable, it really is. The U.S. closest allies just thrown into the same bin as China in an instant. Let's not even talk about Russia, that's BFF territory.
Top trade advisor is Peter Navarro who is a criminal!
Next Trump will demand protection money…
Don’t think Aussie will receive dispensation….you won’t get your subs this side of 2050 either.
Trump is looking after the American people.
Australia needs to do the same
Bring back manufacturing
Enough of this woke crap and look after it's own people..
Navarro is just another ignorant lying fascist goon. Don’t give in to bully Diaper Don.
Can't stop laughing at how Trump is ruining his own economy and distancing American allies
Form a good global trade accord whilst blocking America from it
Trump wants to make Australia the 52nd state after Canada😂😂
No doubt some of the Trump lovers on Sky will try to blame someone else other than Trump.
Trump’s signature isn’t worth the paper it’s written on!
The USA has become a barn full of Sheep Shit! 🇨🇦
Sky News and its neo con presenters are actullay doing HARM to Australia. If Trump imposes Tarriffs on Australia is NOT Albo's fault, its Donald Trump .and his stupid Project 25 agenda…..
Well, well! When you represented by dumb and dumber! What does one expect?
If he is the top trade advisor to trump he is not good at his job surely he could explain how tariff works and who pays for them
Why it was just yesterday sky news was attacking canada sticking up for that american orangutan trump thought it was funny then eh.
Austalia is getting squeezed because of globalism.
Any tariffs against Australia – then Australia should cancel the deal to purchase American submarines
Australia strong supporter of the Commonwealth
Attack us in AUS and dont expect support in your little skirmish wars if you expect us to pay, we should put tariffs on you as well, see how you like it
Time to open up more trade deals with Canada, Australia and
Mexico – the US buffoon can screw off! 🍁
I am a Trump lover and I say to Australians – don't pick a fight with Trump. He will eat you for breakfast. You will swallow the tariffs and like it. You got didgeridoo, we got Disneyland. Apologies now from Aussie government to Mr Trump.
Help me with this; is it true that Australia subsidizes its steel and aluminum industries?
The left only have themselves to blame. Madmouthing politicians like Albanese, Scomo, Rudd, Turnbull and Wong got us into this mess, so they need to get us out. Trump's back in, and it's come back to bite them on the a*^e. They were supposed to be allies. If my 'friends' said those things publicly about me for 10 years and then had the audacity to ask me for a favour, I'd be telling them to f*^k off too.
Peter Navarro is a snake and outright liar. His claims are false. This is the most dangerous man advising Trump. Where is the investigate journalism to refute this man's lies?
How in the earth are some people on here are trying to turn this into an Anti-Albo rant, look at the bigger picture and the US's petty, buulying and ill-imformed actions here guys!!
Sky News is AMERICAN THATS who they fight for. The USA FKS Australia
If ALBO had BALLS he’d close Pine Gap
It's S:Y NEWS, NOT SKY NEWS, Sky is a slimy, wilful misinformation organisation that should not be allowed to broadcast as it LIES!
Navarro is not long out of jail 🤔
