U.S. President Donald Trump said on 2020-09-04 that he would sign executive orders to allow cattle ranchers to protect their herds against gray wolves and to ease high beef prices. [^1]

Tazer Gebregziabher, State Minister of Trade and Regional Integration of Ethiopia, stated at the Horn of Africa Initiative Trade Ministers Meeting in Addis Ababa that Ethiopia considers regional integration a central pillar of its development strategy. [^2]

The European Union suspended imports of Brazilian animal products, including meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and honey, effective this Thursday. [^3]

The G20 summit took place in the United States on September 3, 2026, attended by 19 nations instead of the usual 20. [^4]

Sonia Hayatou, founder of the Gaaraadji Training Centre, a chemist who returned to Cameroon after 17 years in Europe, said the centre sources Cameroonian thread produced by SODECOTON through CICAM and other suppliers, uses just over 100kg of cotton thread a month, produces fabric every two days, and faces high demand especially for weddings, with fabrics priced from FCFA 2,500 (US$4.45) to about FCFA 40,000 (US$71). [^5]

The Gaaraadji Training Centre in Garoua, northern Cameroon, retains 10 young women from an initial group of 20 trainees to learn weaving, dyeing and embroidery using cotton thread made from locally grown cotton. [^6]

Producer groups opposed Trump's import plan, arguing it would disadvantage American ranchers, but responded more favorably to a suite of actions announced this week by the Department of Agriculture to support the beef sector. [^7]

Retail beef prices hit record highs in 2020, partly due to historically low cattle supply constrained by drought and wildfires. [^8]

Trump signed an order last week to temporarily increase imports of some lower-tariff beef in an effort to bring down prices. [^9]

Ethiopia has been working with neighboring countries and partners to mobilize substantial resources for regional trade corridors and trade-facilitating infrastructure. [^10]

Brazil's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Agriculture issued a statement expressing deep concern over the suspension and threatening retaliatory measures. [^11]

Brazilian exports from the sectors affected by the EU measure totaled $2.026 billion in 2025, with $1.064 billion for beef and $781.4 million for poultry. [^12]
