Trump Interview with Canadian Prime Minister in the midst of business war – Mehr News Agency | Iranian and world news

US President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Karney talked to each other on Friday and described both of them as constructive, according to Mehr News Agency. However, Kareni announced that Ottawa will impose retaliatory tariffs against the United States next week, as he had promised.

This is the first link between the leaders of the two countries since Kareni’s victory over the leadership of the Canadian Liberal Party on March 5. Kareni has described Trump’s threat of tariffs as a treachery to the two countries’ economic and security relations.

Trump about his telephone conversation with the Canadian Prime Minister on his personal page on social network Truth He wrote: This was a very constructive call, we agree on many issues and we will meet immediately after the upcoming Canadian election to work on political, commercial and other issues. This cooperation will ultimately be great for both the US and Canada

Carney had promised Thursday to reduce the Canadian economy’s dependence on the United States. Trump’s announcement has been scheduled for April 5, and Ottawa has been clearly announced for months that it will take mutual actions.

“The prime minister told the US president that his government would impose retaliatory tariffs to protect our Canadian workers and our economy, after the announcement of new US tariffs on April 7,” the Carney office said in a statement.

The United States and Canada are also united and big business partners, but relations threatened to tension with the threat of tariffs and repeated statements about Canada’s accession.

However, Trump in his recent call addressed Kareni as the Prime Minister of Canada, not as the governor of the fifty -first state of the United States, a term that he often describes Justin. TrudeauFormer Prime Minister used.

Kareni said two leaders have agreed to begin comprehensive talks on a new economic and security relationship shortly after the April 7 election.
