And the U.S. government does what, exactly?
Does it send a strong message to China to cut out this judicial kidnapping
of Canadian bystanders? Does it make clear that the U.S. and Canada are in
this together, and China will suffer if it tries to beat up on the smaller
partner?
No, it does not. It’s quite clear that, for the Trump administration, the
United States and China have much bigger fish to fry — namely renegotiating
their economic relationship in a way that will allow the U.S. president to
claim that his country is no longer being ripped off.
This has been one of Donald Trump’s obsessions for decades, and is perhaps
his central preoccupation in global affairs. Canada, for him, is a sideshow. | q****5 发帖数: 1660 | 2 Stupid move Canada....since she is not up for charges in this country, she
should have been allowed to connect to Mexico....it was a perfect
opportunity to demonstrate to our "neighbours" to the south that we are not
their door-mat...also since we are not the big dogs in the park, we have to
pick our fights carefully, and this certainly wasn't one of them.... |
