Trump (T-45’s) Tariff
Trade War:
London (CNN) — The United States ambassador to the UK, Woody
Johnson, called on Britain to side with President Trump on Iran “or to risk
serious trade consequences for UK businesses.”
In a pointed
intervention into an issue that has strained ties between the two allies, Johnson said the UK should embrace Trump's hard-hitting sanctions on Iran,
re-imposed last week, and break with its European partners who are seeking to
preserve the deal to curtail Iran's nuclear program, writing in the UK’s Sunday
Telegraph: “America is turning up the pressure and we want the UK by our side.
It is time to move on from the flawed 2015 deal. We are asking global Britain
to use its considerable diplomatic power and influence and join us as we lead a
concerted global effort towards a genuinely comprehensive agreement.”
(I Note:
Johnson was referring to the 2015 Obama-era Iran nuclear pact agreed upon by
the U.S., Iran, the UK, France, Germany, China, and Russia to curb Iranian
nuclear weapon development. Trump withdrew the U.S. from the deal in May 2018,
even though all the other signatories and the IAEA all have said repeatedly
that Iran is complying with agreement. Trump, however, wants to play hardball
as his version of “Art of the Deal” – which really is dangerous ground for him
to place the U.S. to say the least, and also going against our closest and best
allies).
In a joint
statement just last week, the UK, France, and Germany all said again that the
Iran deal was “working and delivering on its goal and said they deeply regret
the re-imposition of U.S. sanctions.”
Impact of all this: Europe has attempted to counteract
the effects of the sanctions by launching an updated version of its “Blocking
Statue” (a measure intended to protect EU companies doing business in Iran from
being hit by punitive U.S. measures).
Johnson seemed to disregard that move
urging British businesses directly to cut ties with Iran, writing in the
Telegraph: “The
President has been explicit: any businesses which put their own commercial
interests in Iran ahead of the global good will risk serious consequences for
their trade with the United States.”
Johnson concluded: “Only by presenting a united front can
we exert the maximum possible pressure on the Iranian regime and get them to
finally change course and put an end to their malign and reckless activities
both at home and abroad.”
Johnson's
comments come less than a week after the Trump administration on Tuesday
re-imposed a raft of sanctions on Iran that affect, among other things, the
purchase or acquisition of U.S. dollars by the Iranian government, the
country's auto industry and trade in gold or precious metals. Another phase of
U.S. sanctions will be re-imposed in November and will target Iran's crucial
oil industry.
My 2 cents: A simple question not just about
Trump’s one-man stance against Iran even in the face of contracting our allies,
partners, and friends and the IAEA, or his harsh tariff policies impacting
China and this threat to the UK, and it seems Turkey as well is in his sights,
is this: WTF is Trump’s goal? Seems it’s some sort of global dictatorship plan
just for himself and a [????? partner blank].
Their purpose is to
divide up the planet by saying: “Okay, you take the Eastern part across the Atlantic Ocean
all the way to Asia and everything in between. I pick it up from Asia across
the Pacific Ocean back to the Atlantic Ocean shores and link up with your half,
then we’ll have a total lock on Mother Earth.”
Sounds far-fetched I know, but think deep about what
is going on around and from and planned
by Trump and his [????? fill in the blank
partner].
FYI: Fill in the blank for the Trump partner with any
name that pops in your head.
Thanks for stopping by.
