The three exceptions of this – Ireland, Luxembourg and Lithuania – 2023 made a decline, it’s a bit strange.
Australia’s experience was abnormal because exports fell for three years between 2020-2022 – the only OECD member who did this. Since the registrations started in 1975, the other negative years have been 1981 and 2002, also Coalition Periods.
In the last two registered two years, only three developed economy has experienced positive growth of over 10%. They are Denmark, Costa Rica and Australia.

Australia’s third ranking on OECD export growth in 2024 continues in 17th, 18th and 2021 in 2018 within the scope of the coalition in 2017.

Effect of Trump’s destructive tariffs
Corruption and increasingly mentally unbalanced US President’s unreasonable decisions affect the world irregularly.
So far, Australia seems to have benefited. An explanatory example is Brazil, its main rival in Australia’s supplying beef to the United States. Brazil launched a 50% Trump tariff on beef, based on Trump’s personal pain against the current reformer Lula da Silva For allowing the government’s friend, the former president Jair Bolsonaroto be tried in open court for corruption. This gives Australia a great advantage.

Media attacks that prove that it is unfounded
Australia’s Craven Main Stream News Rooms have been conducting two criticisms of Trump’s attitude towards the USA since last January. First, Prime Minister Albanian defective Holding a face -to -face meeting with Donald Trump to suppress Australia’s case for tariff rates.
The second is former prime minister Kevin Rudd One obligation As the US Ambassador to the United States because of the denial of the past sharp criticisms, authoritarianism, separatist discourse and climate change denial of Trump’s character.
