U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened the European Union with “very serious tariffs” and possible trade restrictions if Brussels proceeds with a proposal to make Canada the bloc’s first associate member. Trump described the proposal as “laughable” and suggested it could constitute a hostile act depending on Europe’s intentions. The European Commission has rejected that characterization, saying closer ties with Canada are intended to strengthen the bloc and its partners rather than target the United States. France’s Europe Minister Benjamin Haddad also said Washington should not determine Europe’s political or geopolitical direction. The proposal remains at an early stage and requires approval from EU member states. The dispute comes as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney seeks deeper ties with Europe amid worsening relations between Ottawa and Washington. trump, trumpnews, donaldtrump, eu, europeanunion, canada, markcarney, ursulavonderleyen, usnews, europenews, worldnews, trumpvs
