President Trump Calls Canadian PM Trudeau 'Very Dishonest And Weak' As G7 Agreement Crumbles

L-R: Donald Trump - Justin Trudeau

Many business experts say President Trump is starting a 'trade war' with most of its allies but the US leader is not bothered and he just described Canadian Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau as 'very dishonest and weak' following events that took place at the 2018 G7 summit.

After the leaders of the G7 alliance produced a carefully crafted communique Saturday that struck a fragile consensus on difficult issues like Russia and trade - only to have Donald Trump rescind his support after the fact.


Just hours after agreeing to the joint communique with his G7 allies, the U.S. president tweeted from his plane that he had told his officials to abandon American support for the document in an eye-opening move that could threaten the future of the club.

He blamed the summit's host: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Trump tweeted: ''Based on Justin’s false statements at his news conference, and the fact that Canada is charging massive Tariffs to our U.S. farmers, workers and companies, I have instructed our U.S. Reps not to endorse the Communique as we look at Tariffs on automobiles flooding the U.S. Market!''.

He followed it up with a second post that targeted Canada's auto and dairy industries: ''PM Justin Trudeau of Canada acted so meek and mild during our @G7 meetings only to give a news conference after I left saying that, 'US Tariffs were kind of insulting' and he 'will not be pushed around.' Very dishonest & weak. Our Tariffs are in response to his of 270% on dairy!''
