The United States has proposed a new set of tariffs on 60 trading partners, including Australia, alleging they have failed to impose and enforce forced labour bans in their supply chains. The Australian government has rejected the accusations and says the proposed 12.5 per cent import tax contravenes the free trade agreement.
