Munich: US President Donald Trump has increased tension with his neighbor Canada. Troubled by this, Justin Trudeau is seeking help in the world. Canadian Foreign Minister Melani Jolie showed Trump’s tariff fear to European countries at the Munich Security Conference. He said that if America can put tariff on Canada, then the next number will be from Europe. The disappointment about the trump administration on his face was clearly visible. Along with this, he also opposed the proposal to return Russia in G-7. US President Donald Trump imposed a 25 % tariff against Canada after coming to power. Apart from this, a few days ago Trump proposed to include Russia in G-7. Canada’s Foreign Minister said that this can never happen. Russia was earlier a member of G-7, then called the G8. But when Russia captured Crimea during the Obama administration in 2014, it was dropped from the group.
Trump said on Thursday that I would like to bring him back (Russia). I think it was a big mistake to take them out. Trump said that it is not a question of or not to like Russia. Rather it is a question of G8. This year G-7 is headed by Canada. Canadian Foreign Minister said that Canada strongly opposed Russia to re-include the G-7. Jolie said in a press conference, ‘No, we have not discussed the re -inclusion of Russia. But I am making Canada status. This will never happen.’
Trump’s fear shown
Melani Jolie also showed fear of tariff from the Trump administration during this period. Jolie said, ‘We are his closest friends and colleagues. America cannot get a good neighbor from us. 5000 km long is a very safe and strong border. Canada and America are dependent on each other. But when we hear a tariff of 25 percent, it is a threat to our existence. Because this will threaten thousands of jobs in Canada. This is happening from our best friend and best colleague. If America can do this with Canada, then the next number is your (Europe). So we need to work together.
Canada was put on tariff
Taking power of America, President Donald Trump shocked his neighbor Canada and Mexico. Trump imposed a 25 percent tariff on both countries. Apart from this, 10 percent tariff was imposed on Canada’s energy. Trump also announced 10 percent tariff on goods coming from China. Unhappy with this, Canada announced 25 percent tariff.
