Thursday Briefing: A Widening Trade War

The trade war was expanded yesterday when the European Union and Canada announced billions of dollars of retaliation on US exports, hours after President Trump was imposed on steel and aluminum imports. Here is the latest.

Europe

The European Union said revenue would be implemented on April 1st, which is a response to the US $ 26 billion rates, but block officials emphasized that they were ready to attack an agreement.

Their answer will come in two parts. The tariff suspension imposed under Biden will be allowed to end on April 1, which will collect revenue on billions of euros worth of products, including boats, bourbons and motorcycles. The second phase will be to pay taxes on additional products worth about 18 billion euros, of which a list has been finalized so far.

Canada

The Canadian government said it would impose new taxes on US imports worth $ 20 billion. It is focused on round steel and aluminum, but also applies to tools, computers, sports equipment and cast iron.

A graduate of Columbia University and a Palestinian activist, who was detained by federal immigration officials last week, has failed to have a private conversation with his lawyers since his arrest. He has just been accused of crime.

The Trump administration has accused a permanent US legal resident, Mahmoud Khalil of participating in Hamas protests, and has justified its detention with a slightly used law, which gives anyone the power to declare the United States “anti -” and subjugate to deportation.

Quote: “This is not about an independent speech,” said Secretary of State Marco Rubio. “It is about people who have no right to start in the United States. No one has the right to a student visa. No one has the right to a green card.

What’s ahead: The judge said he would order the government to speak to Khalil’s lawyers. He also asked a government lawyer to prepare to resolve the Supreme Court’s opinion, which could allow Khalil’s lawyers to maintain their case in New York.


The Syrian Network for Human Rights said in a report on Tuesday that the violence “includes illegal killings and sectarian killings, field execution and organized mass killings.” The times could not confirm the results.

Background: Hundreds of civilians were killed in Latakia and Targets provinces, including the Divine Religious Minority. The deposed dictator Bashar al -Assad was a Alvi, and some fellow members gained a privileged position under his rule.

Conflict: The militant leader urged them to end them, and their group continued to bomb the armed Kurdish rebels in Iraq and Syria, even after announcing a firefire.


An unexpected developer has received an extension of 17 acres in the Bahamas: Royal Caribbean Cruise Line. The company is building a special batch club with the world’s largest swimming bar, which has caused a danger to the locals who say their cost is out of their homes. Profitable contracts have been promised with the Baha’i businesses, but the islands are wondering how the land has been eliminated for tourism.
