Trump SLAPS 35% Import Tariff On Canada, Citing Ottawa’s Failure To Curb Fentanyl Flow Into U.S [Video]

Trump SLAPS 35% Import Tariff On Canada, Citing Ottawa’s Failure To Curb Fentanyl Flow Into U.S

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. #TrumpTariffs #CanadaTradeWar #USCanadaTensions #35PercentTariff #GlobalTradeCrisis #DrugPolicy #USMCA #TrumpNews #FentanylCrisis #MexicoTrade #IndiaTariff #TaiwanSanctions #Laos40PercentTariff #TradeDeficit #TrumpTradePolicy #MarkCarney #WhiteHouseOrders #EconomicShockwave #TrumpVsWorld #TradeWar2025 ~GR.125~HT.408~

Putin’s Ukraine War BACKFIRES: Austria May ABANDON Historic Neutrality & Join NATO | BIG Win For U.S [Video]

Putin’s Ukraine War BACKFIRES: Austria May ABANDON Historic Neutrality & Join NATO | BIG Win For U.S

Russia’s war on Ukraine has sparked a domino effect, pushing more European nations toward NATO. Austria, long neutral, is now debating membership as Foreign Minister Beate Meinl-Reisinger warns neutrality no longer ensures security. Joining NATO would end Austria’s historic role as a bridge between East and West, signaling a major geopolitical shift. Analysts say this move could inspire other neutral states like Switzerland and Serbia to reconsider their positions. Instead of weakening NATO, Putin’s war has strengthened and expanded the alliance, isolating Russia further #Putin #UkraineWar #NATO #Austria #Neutrality #EuropeanSecurity #Russia #BeateMeinlReisinger #DieWelt #Geopolitics #GlobalSecurity #DominoEffect #Switzerland #Serbia #NATOExpansion #Article5 #Moscow #DiplomaticShift #AlliancePolitics #EasternEurope #PutinBackfires #UkraineConflict #SecurityDebate #RussiaIsolation #CollectiveDefense #WestVsRussia #AustriaNeutrality #DefensePolicy #WarImpact #StrategicShift #EuropeNews Also Read India, China, Brazil Could Be Hit Hard For Trading With Russia: NATO Secretary Rutte :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-china-brazil-could-be-hit-hard-for-trading-with-russia-nato-secretary-rutte-7802537.html?ref=DMDesc This NATO Member Country Can Provide India Battle-Tested Unmanned Weapons, Tech :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/this-nato-member-country-can-provide-india-battle-tested-unmanned-weapons-tech-4175213.html?ref=DMDesc Russian President Vladimir Putin Calls PM Modi To Condemn Pahalgam Terror Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russian-president-vladimir-putin-calls-pm-modi-to-condemn-pahalgam-terror-attack-4143787.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~

BRICS vs The West: Lavrov Calls Out US 'Sanction Hypocrisy' |India & China Push For MULTIPOLAR World

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, alongside India’s S. Jaishankar, accused the U.S. of weaponizing the dollar and using sanctions as “economic colonialism.” Lavrov warned that even allies are unsafe from Washington’s unpredictability, framing BRICS as a counterbalance to Western dominance. India backed the bloc, stressing it is “not anti-West, just not Western.” With BRICS expanding to include nations like Iran, UAE, and Egypt, the bloc now represents over 40% of the global population, aiming to reshape financial systems, technology, and influence in the Global South. #BRICS #Lavrov #Jaishankar #GlobalSouth #Russia #India #China #Sanctions #WesternHypocrisy #MultipolarWorld #USSanctions #Geopolitics #WorldOrder #EconomicColonialism #BRICSExpansion #GlobalPolitics #AltFinance #NewDevelopmentBank #BRICSVsG7 #AntiDollar #GlobalShift #BRICSPower #EconomicAlliance #StrategicShift #WestVsBRICS #NonAligned #TradeWars #GlobalInfluence #TechSovereignty #GlobalBalance Also Read India at the Heart of BRICS: The Pivot in a Multipolar World :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-at-the-heart-of-brics-the-pivot-in-a-multipolar-world-7825477.html?ref=DMDesc US Senator Warns India, China, Brazil of 'Severe Tariffs' Over Russian Oil Purchases :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-senator-warns-india-china-brazil-of-severe-tariffs-over-russian-oil-purchases-011-7807339.html?ref=DMDesc BRICS Leaders Push For India And Brazil's Inclusion As Permanent Members Of UN Security Council :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/brics-leaders-push-for-india-and-brazils-inclusion-as-permanent-members-of-un-security-council-7794021.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.122~

Trump’s Shocking ‘Double Standards’ Revealed On Camera | Dodges Question On US-Russia Uranium Trade [Video]

Trump’s Shocking ‘Double Standards’ Revealed On Camera | Dodges Question On US-Russia Uranium Trade

U.S. President Donald Trump was left scrambling when asked if the United States still imports uranium and fertilisers from Russia—despite threatening India over its purchases of Russian crude oil. “I don’t know anything about it,” Trump said, dodging the question during a press briefing. His remarks came as India lashed out at what it calls Western hypocrisy, citing billions of dollars worth of U.S. imports from Russia, including enriched uranium, palladium, and fertilisers. Trump has warned of “substantial” tariff hikes on Indian imports, criticizing New Delhi’s Russian energy ties. Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley also criticised Trump for giving China “a pass” while risking ties with a major ally like India. The contradiction is fuelling diplomatic tensions and raising questions over U.S. trade ethics in the Ukraine war era. India’s response underscores growing frustration in the Global South over selective enforcement of geopolitical pressure. #TrumpIndiaTariff #TrumpRussiaTrade #IndiaUSRelations #UraniumImports #DoubleStandards #RussianOil #TrumpPressBriefing #ModiTrump #TrumpOnIndia #IndiaSlamsWest #RussiaIndiaUS #TariffThreats #USImportsFromRussia #GeopoliticalTensions #TrumpCNBCInterview #HaleyVsTrump #RussiaTradeDebate #EnrichedUranium #TrumpIndiaRelations #RussiaFertiliserImports
