1. Politico: Trump says Canada’s Palestinian move is new trade deal stumbling block
Ottawa’s recognition of Palestinian statehood will make it “very hard” to reach an agreement, the U.S. president warned.
U.S. President Donald Trump said late Wednesday that Canada’s move to recognize Palestinian statehood threatened to jeopardize trade deal talks between the two countries.
On Wednesday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced that his country intends to recognize a Palestinian state ahead of September’s United Nations General Assembly, joining France and the U.K. on that path.
But Trump, despite acknowledging there is “real starvation” in Gaza on Monday, remains a staunch Israel ally. He argued earlier this week that recognizing Palestinian statehood would reward Hamas, the militant group behind the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel.
“Wow! Canada has just announced that it is backing statehood for Palestine. That will make it very hard for us to make a Trade Deal with them. Oh’ Canada!!!” the president wrote on Truth Social on Wednesday night.
With a Friday deadline looming to strike a deal or face steep U.S. tariffs, negotiations between Canada and the U.S. have stalled, and no deal framework has been set.
POLITICO reported this week that U.S. officials have been recycling grievances at trade talks without offering a path forward, according to Canadian officials. In June, the White House pushed Canada into rescinding its planned digital services tax to unfreeze the talks.
