Washington: America's newly elected President Donald Trump has claimed that America is giving subsidies of $ 100 billion and $ 300 billion to its two neighboring countries, Canada and Mexico. He said that if this is so then these two countries should become a part of America. Trump (78) has threatened that if Canada and Mexico do not stop the flow of illegal immigrants from their respective territories into America, he will impose heavy tariffs on both the countries.
'Why are we giving subsidy?'
Trump said in an interview with NBC News, “We are giving more than 100 billion US dollars in subsidies to Canada every year.” We are giving subsidies to Mexico amounting to approximately US$300 billion. We should not give subsidy. Why are we giving subsidies to these countries? If we are subsidizing them, they should become a state (of America).
'It won't make any difference to Americans'
Trump refuted the comments of some American CEOs that the tariffs will harm America and increase the prices of common goods, which will increase the pressure on the common people. “It won't make any difference to Americans,” he said. He created a great economy for us. If we face problems related to war and other things like tariffs, I would like to respond to the war with tariffs. I would say that if you people want to fight, then it is good that you fight. But, both of you will pay 100 percent of the duty to the US. If used properly, fees serve many purposes. I'm not saying you should use them like crazy. I say use them properly.

'The country will not suffer'
Trump said, “This will not cause any harm to the country, but it will bring money to this country.” We never got a chance to work with full force because we fought the Covid-19 pandemic before this. We dealt with it very well, successfully. When I handed over the reins of power to Joe Biden (outgoing President), the stock market was higher than it was just before the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic. “Taxes, if used properly, are a very powerful tool, not only economically, but also to achieve other things outside economics.”
'Talked to the leaders of Canada and Mexico'
During the interview, Trump was asked, “Are you going to impose these tariffs or is this just a negotiating tactic?” Trump said, “Let me give you an example.” Millions of people are coming to our country from Canada and especially Mexico. I spoke to both (the leaders of Canada and Mexico). I talked to Justin Trudeau. He left for 'Mar-a-Lago' (the private club owned by Trump) within about 15 seconds of the phone conversation. He was at Mar-a-Lago. We were having dinner and talking about this.'' Trump said, ''I told the President of Mexico and Justin Trudeau, if this does not stop, I will impose about 25 percent tariff on your country.'' ( Language)
