Xinhua, Canberra :
The possible collapse of trade between the United States and Britain could benefit Australia, said Australian government, local media reported Saturday.
Steven Ciobo, Australia’s minister for trade, tourism and investment, suggested that Australian exporters would reap the rewards if the United States killed off a trade deal with the Britain as declared by U.S. President Donald Trump earlier in July.
During a visit to Britain, Trump told local press that British Prime Minister Theresa May’s “soft Brexit” plan would “kill” any potential trade deal between the countries.
Ciobo on Saturday agreed with assessments that Trump’s declaration weakened.
