Kanadas Carney zeigt Trump die Grenzen auf – schauen die Europäer weiter nur zu?

The trade negotiations between the US and Canada have failed, leading to a trade war. US tariffs of 50% on certain Canadian goods, including hockey sticks, furniture, and wine, worth around $20 billion, came into effect over the weekend.

In response, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that Canada will impose countermeasures, including tariffs on US products such as milk, steel, agricultural equipment, and paper, starting September 8. According to Carney, the US has once again attacked Canada, and he stated that Canada will not give in to US demands.

The Canadian tariffs will target American products, as reported by Le Monde Economie, specifically steel and dairy products. The trade dispute is seen as an expression of long-standing political tensions, with Canada feeling threatened by Trump's policies.
