  "account": "Despite close ties between U.S. Presidents Donald Trump and Argentine President Javier Milei, Argentina missed out on a $300,000-ton tariff-free import quota for beef. The U.S. authorized this extraordinary import to curb domestic meat prices, but Argentina, along with Uruguay, Australia, and New Zealand, operates under fixed import quotas. Brazil, whose leader Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is at odds with Trump, stands to benefit the most from the decision. The White House announced the measure to increase the supply of ground beef and lower consumer prices, effective from September 1, 2026, for 90 days. Brazil, which previously had no preferential tariff treatment in the U.S., could capitalize on this opportunity.",
