U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a global trade storm by raising tariffs on Canadian imports to 35%, accusing Ottawa of failing to curb fentanyl and drug flows into America. Prime Minister Mark Carney defended Canada’s efforts, but Trump claimed negotiations fell short. The new rate—up from 25%—comes amid broader tariffs hitting dozens of countries.
Despite the USMCA shielding nearly 90% of Canadian exports, key goods like dairy, wood, and leather may still be taxed. Trump spared Mexico for now but warned that other nations—including Taiwan, India, Laos, and even Switzerland—face harsh levies, some as high as 41%. Critics warn of soaring consumer prices and economic disruption, but the White House insists the tariffs are "rebuilding the greatest economy in history." With global trade talks in limbo and retaliations expected, this marks Trump’s boldest move yet in his battle to reset world commerce.

The Indian Army has denied claims made by ULFA-I of a cross-border drone strike on its Myanmar headquarters that allegedly killed 19 cadres. Defence PRO Mahendra Rawat said the Army has no inputs confirming any such operation. Sources suggest the attack may stem from infighting among militant groups. ULFA-I leader Paresh Baruah remains elusive near the tri-junction with ISI support. With Myanmar’s border regions in turmoil, Indian officials remain concerned over insurgent activity and the exploitation of the porous border.
