‘We won’t back down’: Global leaders threaten backlash to Trump auto tariff
Al Jazeera
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that ‘nothing is off the table’ in retaliation to 25-percent tariffs.
World leaders have denounced United States President Donald Trump for unveiling a new tariff measure, this time aimed at the automobile industry.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney offered one of the most frank assessments, saying it signalled an end to the tight bonds his country and the US once enjoyed.
“The old relationship we had with the United States – based on deepening integration of our economies and tight security and military cooperation – is over,” Carney said.
“We will need to dramatically reduce our reliance on the United States. We will need to pivot our trade relationships elsewhere. And we will need to do things previously thought impossible, at speeds we haven’t seen in generations.”
Carney’s remarks arrived on the heels of a new executive proclamation from the Trump administration, placing a 25-percent tariff on all foreign-made automobiles imported into the US, starting on April 2.
