While Iranian forces continue to block the Strait of Hormuz, which normally carries around 20 percent of global oil supplies, a number of ships linked to China have managed to transit through the strait, leaving some to speculate a deal has been made between Beijing and Tehran.

I don't see a future of increased trade between the EU and Canada under Carney because Canada is a climate villain and the EU is moral. Either the EU has to become immoral and drop their climate and biodiversity laws, or Canada needs to do a 180 and become a moral nation. The EU already refuses dirty Canadian oil and is making noise about dirty Canadian gas...
Thank you to the EU for being ethical and moral!
This idiot governs (using that word very generously) by reactionary insecure whim.
#Trump says #US will cut all #trade with #Spain after it refused to let the US #military use its bases for missions linked to strikes on #Iran.
"Spain has been terrible," Trump told reporters adding that he had told #Treasury Secy Scott Bessent to "cut off all dealings" with Spain.
"We're going to cut off all trade with Spain. We don't want anything to do with Spain," he added.

The Trump admin truly isn't thinking about the small businesses that brought the tariff case to the Supreme Court because of how negatively Trump's broad tariffs affected them (in fact, they are "sleazebags," per #Trump ).
The admin is using #tariffs as leverage to get whatever it wants in world #trade and beyond.
In fact, in the video below, #US Treasury Secretary Scott #Bessent reports that the admin can impose "more draconian" trade embargoes— #SCOTUS said so!

#Trump announced Saturday that he would raise his new, global #tariff to 15%, a day after he took steps to replicate some of the punishing duties that had been struck down by #SCOTUS.
Trump announced the change in a post on social media, & said the #tariffs would take effect immediately, as he signaled anew that he would press ahead with his #trade war despite the legal ruling.

#Canada reacting exactly as we all should∶
“The Supreme Court’s decision to strike down the use of #IEEPA tariff powers is a legal ruling, not a reset of #US #trade policy. This is certainly not the last chapter of this never-ending story,” said Candace Laing, the president & chief exec of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. “Canada should prepare for new, blunter mechanisms to be used to reassert trade pressure, potentially with broader & more disruptive effects.”
#Trump set what he called “reciprocal” #tariffs on most countries in April 2025 to address #trade #deficits that he declared a “national emergency”. Those came after he imposed extra #duties on #Canada, #China & #Mexico, ostensibly to address a “drug trafficking” “emergency”.
A series of lawsuits followed, including a case from a dozen largely Democratic-leaning #states & others from small #businesses selling everything from plumbing supplies to educational toys to women’s cycling apparel.

The details of any framework aside, Trump’s decision to back down from steep new #tariffs on European countries came days after financial #markets recoiled over the prospect of a #trade war. Some analysts felt that a protracted battle threatened to harm the #US #economy, not just the countries that #Trump had been trying to pressure over #Greenland.
Nevertheless, it was not the first time that #TACO has retreated from his tariff plans, particularly in the wake of a strong market reaction.
#EU freezes work on #US #trade deal ‘indefinitely’ after #Trump’s #Greenland & #tariff threats
A key group of European Parliament members blocked a vote to ratify a US-European trade deal Wednesday after Trump threatened to take over Greenland & charge as much as an additional 35% tariff on countries opposed to his ambitions.

#Macron says #US #tariffs aim to 'subordinate Europe'
"Cooperation gives way to relentless competition," Macron said.
"Competition from the #UnitedStates of America through #trade agreements that undermine our export interests, demand maximum concessions, & openly aim to weaken & subordinate #Europe. Combined with an endless accumulation of new tariffs that are fundamentally unacceptable, even more so when they are used as leverage against territorial #sovereignty."
Instead, he said, #Europe will continue to stand up for territorial #sovereignty & the rule of #law, despite what he called a shift towards a world without rules. That could include the #EU responding with its own steep #trade #sanctions.
"We do prefer respect to bullies," #Macron said. "And we do prefer rule of law to brutality."

Carney said there would be an initial cap of 49k vehicles on Chinese EV exports to Canada, growing to 70k over 5 years. #China will reduce its tariff on canola seeds, a major Canadian export, from about 84% to about 15%, he told reporters.

U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement of new tariffs on goods from countries trading with Iran risks derailing his one-year trade truce with China, the world’s top buyer of Iranian oil. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2026/01/13/markets/trump-china-trade-iran-tariff/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #markets #us #donaldtrump #trade #tariffs #china #iran

For the last year, European friends-turned-frenemies of the #UnitedStates have delicately navigated one shock after another, hoping for the best as #Trump threatened to lay waste to the #GlobalOrder.
When Trump scolded #NATO #allies, lambasted #Ukraine’s president, laid on #tariffs & framed ratified #treaties as conditional deals, the go-to play by #Europe was to placate—with #military #spending pledges, #trade concessions, disciplined summits, in language scrubbed of #morality or judgment.
It wasn’t always elegant, or dignified, but the policy of strategic acquiescence seemed to be working, *sort of*. #US arms kept flowing to #Ukraine, an all-out #trade war was averted & #Trump deigned to say some nice things about #NATO.
Then came the strikes on #Caracas, explosions that echoed in capitals around the world. Governments that spent years preaching #restraint, legality & #multilateralism found themselves scrambling for words to express unease without triggering #Trump’s fury.

I don't believe the administration is being sincere when it decries international trade imbalances. There are some simple, obvious actions it could be taking right at home that would be wildly popular yet do not seem to merit mention.
