Trump Warns: If Canada Becomes a EU Candidate Member, He Will Impose Tariffs on Europe and Suspend Trade

U.S. President Donald Trump threatened that if Canada becomes a candidate member of the European Union, he would suspend trade with Europe "in many areas."

On Wednesday, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced that work has begun to develop Canada into the EU's first candidate member, though she did not specify what this status exactly entails.

Trump responded to reporters, saying that if he deems this move as hostile, he will impose very severe tariffs or suspend trade with Europe on many projects.
