Лидеры Канады и США обсудили торговые напряженности на фоне тарифов

"...to take heat out of his early encounters with President Trump..."

"...to avoid references to Canada becoming a 51st state..."

"...to revert to the old days, when Canada and the United States were the tightest of defense and intelligence allies..."

"...Mr. Trump did not muse again about how Canada would be much better off as part of the United States..."

"...though he alluded to the thought when he discussed how to eliminate auto tariffs..."

"...Mr. Trump did muse about how the two countries were in 'natural conflict,' and described Mr. Carney, a former central bank chief for England and Canada, as a 'nice man' who could be 'very nasty.'..."

"...even Mr. Trump appeared to recognize that he had a lot of repair work to do..."

"...Seeming to acknowledge that his reputation north of the border is toxic..."

"...Canadian officials insisted they were happy with the changed tenor of the meeting..."

"...it was the change in tone, rather than tariff rates, that they had most sought..."

"...Mr. Trump repeatedly referred to steel and aluminum, but gave no hint of his flexibility in reducing the rate — or what he would demand in return..."

"...Unlike many other nations, Canada has not been able to strike a trade deal with Mr. Trump..."

"...Mr. Trump has imposed a general 35 percent tariff on Canadian exports based on his claim, which is refuted by data, that Canada is a significant source of migrants and fentanyl for the United States..."

"...That broad tariff does have a significant exemption..."

"...But Mr. Trump has imposed tariffs on several key exports from Canada — automobiles, steel, aluminum and, most recently, softwood lumber — calling the measures a matter of national security..."

"...Those tariffs have already had significant effects..."

"...General Motors is planning to cut a shift at its pickup-truck factory in Oshawa, Ontario, jeopardizing about 2,000 jobs..."

"...In the same province, Stellantis suspended the overhauling of a factory in Brampton to produce a new Jeep model, leaving the plant idle..."

"...Canada has set aside 10 billion Canadian dollars, or $7.1 billion, in loans for large steel and aluminum companies affected by the U.S. tariffs..."

"...The change in tone by a president who previously dismissed Canada’s viability as a nation may have come in part because of recent concessions from Mr. Carney..."

"...He lifted most of the reciprocal tariffs Canada had put on goods from the United States, except those applied to the same products covered by Mr. Trump’s national security tariffs..."

"...Mr. Carney also canceled a tax on American tech companies he had inherited from the previous government..."

"...Mr. Trump had called off negotiations with Canada because of the tax..."

"...While Mr. Trump’s calls for Canada’s annexation and his tariffs angered many Canadians and prompted boycotts of American products and travel to the United States..."

"...Mr. Carney praised his host before the meeting and called him 'a transformative president.'..."
