Canada, Mexico, and China support Trump tariffs

U.S. President Donald Trump imposed a long -term tariff on imports from Canada, Mexico and China on Saturday.

Trump is scheduled to start on Tuesday, and has signed a 25 % tariff on products from Mexico and Canada to sign 10 % obligations on importing China. Energy resources from Canada face 10 % of tariffs to “minimize the destructive effects that can affect gasoline and home heating oil prices.”

According to a presidential decree, Trump stated that if a country, which is the United States, may meet the “range or expansion” of the already imposed obligations.

in Post to X“The duties were imposed due to the major threats of illegal foreigners and fatal drugs that kill citizens, including Fentanyl.

The United States has a business of about $ 1.6 trillion in Canada, Mexico and China. This tariff is expected to be used by the Trump administration as both a negotiating chip and a method for changes in foreign policy, especially on immigration and drug trading issues.

The reaction from one of the three countries was quick and decisive, but other countries seemed to have received more awaited approaches for Trump’s tariffs. Let’s take a look at their answers here.

Immediately after Trump’s tariff was announced, Canadian Prime Minister Canada paid 25 % of US retaliation fees for US products of $ 155 billion.

He states that a duty of US -worth $ 30 billion will be imposed on Tuesday, and a product equivalent to $ 125 billion will be introduced in 21 days, saying, “Canada companies and supply chains will find alternatives. I’m looking for that. “

“Like the US tariffs, our reactions are extensive, and everyday items such as fruit beer, wine, bourbon, orange juice and fruit juice are vegetables, perfumes, clothing, and so on. Include shoes, “said Tordeau. A press conference on Saturday night. “Contains major consumer products such as home appliances, furniture and sports equipment, and materials such as lumber and plastic.

“This is a choice to harm Canadians, but it will bring the true results beyond the United States.”

Retaly tariffs are expected to worsen the price increase in both the United States and other places. Every price from cars and electronic devices to toys and food It is expected to be affected.

The Tordeau added, “You don’t need to do this.”

“Yes, there was a difference in the past, but we have always found a way to get over them. As I said, if President Trump wants to tell the arrival of the new golden age in the United States, better roads. Is not to punish us, but to partner with Canada, “he said.

Mexico also pledged to retaliation following the news, but did not disclose the details.

President Claudia Symbaum accused Trump’s tariff and said, “We have instructed the economic secretary to implement the plan B we are working on.

in Long post to XThe president added: “We decide to refuse the slander of the Mexican White House, which claims the alliance with a criminal organization, and the intention to interfere with our territory.”

“Mexico doesn’t want a conflict. Start with the cooperation of neighboring countries,” she said in a post translated by NBC. “Mexico does not want Fentanil to reach the United States, but does not want to reach anywhere.”

“We must cooperate in a comprehensive way, but we must always cooperate under the principles of shared responsibility, mutual trust, cooperation, and above all, respecting unwindable sovereignty. 。

China said that he would sue a World Trade Organization in accordance with his duties, saying that he would “take necessary measures.”

“US one -sided tariff hiking seriously violates the WTO rules, has nothing to do to solve its own problems, and confuses normal economic and trade cooperation between China and the United States. According to the NBC translation, he stated in a Sunday statement.

“In response to this tort, China has filed a lawsuit against the WTO and takes necessary measures to protect its rights and profits.” China has previously complained about WTOs over tariffs. Especially about the EU tariff on China’s EV last year.

The fact that China stopped the immediate escalation has raised hope that there is room to avoid the full trade war between the two countries. The low 10 % wage imposed on Chinese products may be rescue given the repeated threats conducted by Trump in the trajectory of the campaign to impose an obligation to import from the country. 。

In the statement, China pushed back Trump’s comments on Fentanyl and described it as a “domestic issue.”

“China does not rely on tariff threats to other countries, but urges the United States to take an objective and rational approach to domestic issues, including Fentanyl,” he said.

Synthetic opio idipentanil is a poisonous drug that causes thousands of overdose in the United States every year, and most of the chemicals required to make drugs are produced in China and Mexico. Washington and Beijing had previously agreed to cooperate with this issue.

In a Sunday memo, Paul Ashus, President of North American economics, stated that tariffs were “the first strike, although it could be a very destructive World Trade War.”

He said that importing the European Union would be targeted in the next few months, and said that Trump has said in April (Trump has significantly told the campaign’s trajectory in April).

According to Ashworth, economic impacts will be important in all related countries.

“Exports to the United States account for about 20 % of the GDP, so today’s tariffs may fall into both the Canadian and Mexican economy in the latter half of this year.”

“The surge of US inflation from these tariffs and other futures will be faster and larger than we expected.”
