The Prime Minister in Canada says that close cooperation with the United States ended up before speaking to Trump – the Americas

The new Prime Minister in Canada Mark Carne said on Thursday that the days of close cooperation with the United States “are over” because this country is no longer a “reliable partner”.

“The old relationship that we had with the United States, based on the deep integration of our economies and the close cooperation between security and defense, has ended,” he said at a press conference.

However, he determined that he should keep talks with US President Donald Trump within a “day or two” at the request of Washington.

On Wednesday, the US President announced his intention to impose customs customs by 25 % on car imports. This procedure will join the definitions that Washington has already imposed on steel and aluminum.

“I oppose any attempt to weaken Canada, to divide us so that America can get us, this will never happen,” he said.

“We will fight the American customs tariff through revenge works that will have a maximum impact on the United States and the minimum impact here in Canada,” added the new Prime Minister, who took office less than two weeks ago.

Carrie, who called for the early elections, interrupted his campaign on Wednesday afternoon, after the new ads of Donald Trump to meet the prime ministers in Canadian provinces.

The Prime Minister insisted today on the “respect” that the American president must prove so that the dialogue is possible.

“For me, there are two conditions, not necessarily a phone call, but to negotiate with the United States. The first is respect, and respect for our sovereignty as a country,” he said.

On the other hand, he added: “There must be a global discussion between us, including in terms of our economy and security.”

The two leaders have not exchanged phone calls since Kiir took office, to replace Justin Trudeau on March 14.

Carney promised “building a new Canadian economy”, that is, by eliminating customs barriers between Canadian provinces.

The Canadian Prime Minister will wait until next week to announce concrete measures, but it is a guarantee that Canada must “large” to rely on its southern neighbor and search for new “reliable” commercial partners.

However, the successor of Justin Trudeau acknowledged that building Canada is stronger, more free and eternal will be complicated, admitting that “there is no miracle or shortening solution” to achieve this.
