Donald Trump is threatening to launch a damaging new trade war with the United States' historically closest ally, the United Kingdom.
It comes as the United Kingdom parliament on Wednesday voted to ratify Boris Johnson's Brexit agreement with the EU on Wednesday, paving the way for Britain's exit on January 31. Johnson's spokesman told a press briefing this week that these companies, most of which are based in the US, are "undermining public trust and confidence in our economic system."
Johnson's spokesman responded to the threats this week by saying said that such a trade war would "harm businesses and consumers on both sides of the Atlantic."that the UK's policy was "not a matter for the US. It's not a matter for the EU. And it's not a matter for anybody else.
Johnson last week joined with other European leaders in signing a letter endorsing the current deal, which they see as the best chance of bringing Iran back into the fold and preventing a potentially devastating conflict with the US.on European vehicles appear to have played a part in forcing those same countries to instigate the disputes mechanism last week , which could ultimately cause the entire deal to fall apart.
Hahaha
🙄🙄🙄
Trump and doing damage are synonyms
Donald Trump is a blowhard bully just stand up to him and stop crying about how bad it's going to be without the support of the US after Brexit. Brexit will be a fact soon learn to live with it and don't keep referring to it as the root of all evil for the next 50 years
MiftyJackson keep his toxic trade deals we know where it could end
MiftyJackson Oh dear..that’s really going to hurt
Then, we’ll have to thank him for uniting Great Britain! Needs must.🌷
No he isnt
Dear Boris, please call Trumps bluff and tell him to stick it where the sun doesn’t shine, we can just do a deal with the EU ... oh shit, I forget about BREXIT, ... bloody marvelous, you really have put the UK in a prime negotiating position
sazmeister88 Brexiteers championed the US being our saviour re trade deals. That was always going to be a difficult one, Trump carries a very big stick into his negotiations.....tariffs. He is top dog and the UK after brexit are always going to get a kicking as we are a small country. Fact.
Of course he is.
miupli Nos dejan para irse con este
I can see Boris rushing across the pond now to sit on his lap
sazmeister88 Hands up anyone who's even remotely surprised by this?
Yes let's kill an ally instead of helping them. That is what the US does now. Turns its back on our allies. This is our shame this is what our country has become. Sad, sad. Just so sad. And it is because of no oversight by the GOP and total support for a corrupt Trump.
Trump is threatening a damaging WW3 to the whole World.
AdamBienkov Threatening is the word most often ascribed to Trump's approach to other leaders unless of course they are tyrants whose power & control he envies & aspires to.
