Karney rejects calls to Canada in a conversation with Trump to become a US state / day
The two politicians met for the first time in the White House’s oval office and Trump insisted that there would be a « wonderful marriage » if Canada agreed to his repeat calls for becoming a 51 US state.
Both politicians later welcomed these talks, which had made progress, although Karney said he had asked Trump to no longer invite Canada to join the US.
« As you know from the real estate industry, there are some places. That is never sold, » Karney told the real estate for a magnate for Trump.
« It (Canada) is not sold. It will never be sold, » Karny said.
« Never say never, » Trump replied.
The 60 -year -old Liberal Party, led by Karney, won the Canadian parliamentary elections on April 28.
When Karnie woke unpopular Justin Trudo in the prime minister’s chair on March 14, he linked his action program to the trump, stating that the US president wants to break the Canadians to make them his servants.
After a meeting with Trump at a press conference, Karney said the trade talks were « complicated », but his two -hour consultation with Trump was « very constructive ».
« He’s ready for these conversations, » Karny said, answering the question whether Trump would be ready to give up the customs tariffs set by Canada.
However, the Prime Minister added that he called for Trump to end calls for Canada to become 51.
« I told him that it is not useful to repeat this idea, but the president would say what he wants, » Karny said.
Trump, on the other hand, said that there was no tension during this « very great » meeting.
