特朗普狂罵杜魯多之謎?「在美朝談判前削弱總統威勢」

七國集團(G7)峰會以亂局落幕,美國總統特朗普大罵加拿大總理杜魯多「不誠實、軟弱」後,其手下繼續力數杜魯多不是,力度之強,彷彿已把杜魯多列為美國新任頭號敵人。為什麼?特朗普經濟顧問拉里庫德洛(Larry Kudlow)說,因為杜魯多的「背叛」,令特朗普在「特金會」(美朝會談)前顯得軟弱。

杜魯多(Justin Trudeau)在G7發布會上表示,一定會保護加拿大的利益,又說加拿大不會任人擺佈。這跟特朗普的「以美國利益為先」的口號其實大同小異,但特朗普認為這說法是「背叛」,甚至影響自己形象,覺得被矮化了。

庫德洛表示,杜魯多發言的時間剛好是特朗普前往新加坡跟北韓領袖金正恩會談之前,「這等同在背後插我們一刀」。美國在沒有選擇下,為挽回面子,必須反擊。

「美國對G7公報是有誠意的⋯⋯你不能說這些話,這根本是背叛。」庫德洛接受CNN訪問時說。「特朗普絕對有權反擊杜魯多這二流式的陰謀。」

「特朗普不會被加拿大總理欺負。在美朝談判前後,絕不容許任何人或事削減他的威勢。」

特朗普的貿易顧問彼得·納瓦羅(Peter Navarro)在接受霍氏新聞訪問時罵得更狠:「任何跟總統先生耍惡意外交,然後在背後插他一刀的外國領袖,地獄給此人預留了特殊位置。」

特朗普狂罵杜魯多之謎?「在美朝談判前削弱總統威勢」
對於美國的強烈反應,美國國內外無不震驚,其他G7成員國重申會支持公報。法國總統馬克龍發聲明指,國際間的合作不能由怒火和謾罵來主導:「我們花了兩天時間共同製定這份聲明和承諾,我們要堅持遵守,誰退出就是反口覆舌。」

德國總理默克爾向ADR電視台說:「那所謂退出,當然是透過Twitter⋯⋯實在令人沉重,沮喪。」

共和黨資深參議員麥凱恩發帖,向美國的盟友表示,大多數美國人都是支持自由貿易、全球化,以及跟盟友70年來的共同價值和友誼。「美國人站在你們那邊,即使我們的總統不是。」

到目前為止,加拿大似乎無意加入泥沼罵戰。外長費里蘭(Chrystia Freeland)表示,加拿大不認為人身攻擊是有效的外交方式。「對於來自盟友的人身攻擊,我們更要自我管束。」針對特朗普提出要向加拿大鋼材和鋁收關稅,她形容為「莫名其妙、純粹侮辱加拿大。」

Donald Trump signaled Monday in his first tweets from Singapore exactly where his focus was heading into a nuclear summit with Kim Jong-un - and it wasn't on the decades-old dispute with North Korea over its threatening behavior.

Trump instead took aim at Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who he's been sparring with from across the International Dateline over steel and aluminum tariffs the U.S. imposed on its allies in the name of national security.

'Fair Trade is now to be called Fool Trade if it is not Reciprocal,' Trump on Monday morning harrumphed. 'According to a Canada release, they make almost 100 Billion Dollars in Trade with U.S. (guess they were bragging and got caught!). Minimum is 17B. Tax Dairy from us at 270%. Then Justin acts hurt when called out!'

The European Union was next on Trump's list, with the president complaining in follow-up tweets that the U.S. foots the bill for the bulk of the West's shared security through the North Atlantic Treaty Organization only to get ripped off by the very same countries in the trade arena.

Only after the rant did Trump mention the 'excitement in the air' in Singapore, the host nation to his Kim summit, saying it was 'great' to be in the high-class city that doubles as a nation.

Trudeau was a target of the administration's complaining on Sunday and into Monday, becoming the fall guy if Trump's talks failed with North Korea this week

The U.S. president arrived in Singapore on Sunday evening local time for talks could change the course of history and earn him the Nobel Peace Prize, if successful in convincing the world’s most isolated nation to end its pursuit of mankind’s most deadly weapons.

After a grueling 21 hours of travel that included a refueling stop on a Greek island, Trump touched down at Paya Labar Air Base in Singapore. He told journalists nearby he was feeling 'very good' about his meeting on Tuesday morning local time with Kim Jong-un and then sped off in his motorcade to conclude his first evening in the country in privacy of his room at the Shangri-La, the luxury hotel housing the U.S. delegation.

This afternoon he meets with Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong, following in the footsteps of Kim, who sat down with the head of the summit's host nation after his own arrival on Sunday afternoon via an Air China flight.

Kim is staying at the St. Regis hotel, near Trump. The foreign leaders will hold their summit at a third location, the Capella Resort, ensconced on 30 acres of land south of the city on Sentosa Island.

White House guidance for Monday was vague about how Trump was spending his time in the lead-up to his meeting with Kim, aside from his meet-and-greet with Lee at the presidential palace, which houses the prime minister's office.

Trump will also be spending time with U.S. embassy staff this afternoon behind closed doors, according his public schedule.

Tomorrow morning, he will finally sit down with Kim for the first face-to-face discussion between a U.S. president and North Korean autocrat since Kim's grandfather, Kim Il-sung, assumed power in 1948.

President Trump has boldly predicted that the summit with Kim Jong-un will be a 'great success' and have a positive outcome not just for the two parties but for the world at large.

And if the summit doesn't go as planned, the Trump administration said Sunday it would be Canada's fault for trying to exploit its relationship with the U.S.

'Sorry, we cannot let our friends, or enemies, take advantage of us on Trade anymore,' Trump tweeted. 'We must put the American worker first!'

Trump advisers Larry Kudlow and Peter Navarro claimed there was a 'special place in hell' for Trudeau on the United States' top-watched Sunday news programs, claiming he 'stabbed us in the back' with the explicit intention of making Trump look weak ahead of his meeting with Kim.

'He really kind of stabbed us in the back. He really, actually, you know: he did a great disservice to the whole G-7. He betrayed,' Kudlow, the president's chief economic adviser, told CNN on 'State of the Union.'

Kudlow trashed Trudeau in the interview for going 'rogue' on trade after the Trump agreed to sign a G7 communique. The U.S. official said that Trudeau has acted 'sophomoric' and was performing a 'political stunt.'

'You just don't behave that way. It's a betrayal. Essentially double-crossing,' Kudlow said in response to Trudeau's needling on tariffs after Trump departed Charlevoix early in order to spend additional time in Singapore.

The top aide to Trump when it comes to the economy said the former businessman 'is not gonna let a Canadian prime minister push him around' and is 'not going to permit any show of weakness on a trip to negotiate with North Korea.'

'He can't put Trump in a position of being weak going into the North Korean talks. He can't do that. And by the way, President Trump is not weak,' Kudlow argued. 'Kim must not see American weakness. It's that short.'

Attacking Trudeau on CBS' 'Face the Nation,' Kudlow barked, 'The president is going to negotiate with Kim of North Korea and Singapore. It is a historic negotiation and there is no way this president is not going to stand strong. Number one he's not going to allow the people to suddenly take pot shots at him. Hours before that summit and number two Trudeau should've known better.'

Director of the White House National Trade Council Peter Navarro charged on 'Fox News Sunday' that 'there's a special place in hell for any foreign leader that engages in bad faith diplomacy with President Donald J. Trump and then tries to stab him in the back on the way out the door.

Navarro said, 'That's what bad faith Justin Trudeau did with that stunt press conference.'

'To my friends in Canada,' he added, 'that was one of the worst political miscalculations of a Canadian leader in modern Canadian history.'

The broadsides at Trudeau were a 180 from Trump's own remarks when he left Charlevoix on Saturday morning Eastern Daylight Time.

'I will say, it was not contentious. What was strong was the language that this cannot go on,' he said of trade deficits with Canada and Europe in response to a question about his meetings with the heads of government of his host nation and France. 'But the relationships are very good, whether it be President Macron or with Justin. We had — Justin did a really good job. I think the relationships were outstanding.'

Trudeau said at a news conference of his own after Trump was in the air on his way to Singapore that Canada 'particularly did not take lightly' the U.S. claim that worldwide tariffs on aluminum and steel are 'based on a national security reason.'

Trump has claimed unequivocally that they are also about creating what he sees as trade parity. Canada is enacting retaliatory tariffs in response.

'I have made it very clear to the president that it is not something we relish doing, but it is something that we absolutely will do,' Trudeau said at his news conference. 'As Canadians, we are polite, we’re reasonable, but also we will not be pushed around.'

Trump blew up on Twitter, tweeting midway through his journey, '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!' the U.S. president said, affirming Trudeau's point about the administration's national security excuses.

Trump said that the 'false statements at his news conference, and the fact that Canada is charging massive Tariffs to our U.S. farmers, workers and companies' had led him to make an about-face on the joint communique.

'I have instructed our U.S. Reps not to endorse the Communique,' he said, 'as we look at Tariffs on automobiles flooding the U.S. Market!'

A first-term president with no prior political experience who has a flare for the dramatics, Trump’s skeptics say this week’s summit with Kim will serve as little more than a misguided photo-op

Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland said Sunday as Trudeau took on heavy artillery fire from the U.S. that her country doesn't find the attacks 'appropriate or useful' to trade negotiations and the countries' security partnership.

She also said that Canada is 'very measured' in its actions and that Trudeau and other government officials 'use fact-based arguments.'

Trump joined in on the Trudeau bashing on Monday morning from Singapore with a series of tweets that made clear that he sees no difference between the United States' friends and enemies when it comes to the way he plans to pursue trade policy.

'Why should I, as President of the United States, allow countries to continue to make Massive Trade Surpluses, as they have for decades, while our Farmers, Workers & Taxpayers have such a big and unfair price to pay? Not fair to the PEOPLE of America! $800 Billion Trade Deficit...,' he said.

Minutes later he finished the thought, bringing up the Western security alliance that he believes the U.S. pays too much to maintain.

'And add to that the fact that the U.S. pays close to the entire cost of NATO-protecting many of these same countries that rip us off on Trade (they pay only a fraction of the cost-and laugh!),' he said. 'The European Union had a $151 Billion Surplus-should pay much more for Military!'

Trump left France's Macron alone in the tweets, singling out Germany, whose leader, Angela Merkel, he did not meet with at the G7, as a major offender of the United States' generosity.

'Germany pays 1% (slowly) of GDP towards NATO, while we pay 4% of a MUCH larger GDP. Does anybody believe that makes sense?' he asked. 'We protect Europe (which is good) at great financial loss, and then get unfairly clobbered on Trade. Change is coming!'



As if remembering, or being reminded, of what his focus was supposed to be on, Trump said three minutes after his last tweet on trade that it was 'great' to be in Singapore.

Nearly an hour passed before Trump shoved in one more point - that he would not let America's friends or enemies 'take advantage of us' on trade anymore - before he moved on with his day.

The tweets demonstrated Trump's fixation with America's trade posturing at a time when he was supposed to be preparing for a discussion on denuclearization with the world's most notorious dictator.

A first-term president with no prior political experience who has a flare for the dramatics, Trump’s skeptics had already said this week’s summit would serve as little more than a misguided photo-op.

His admission in the lead up to the trip that he’d done little to get ready for the face-to-face with the 33-year-old brute and was relying on his ‘attitude’ and ‘willingness’ to strike an accord did little to lessen anxiety at home that Trump was hurling himself in the direction of a catastrophic mistake.

Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer on Thursday chided that 'the situation is far too dangerous for seat of the pants negotiating' after warning Trump earlier in the week against entering an agreement with Kim 'just for the sake of reaching a deal.'

The sniping from the sidelines prompted Trump to charge that Schumer and his party 'did NOTHING about North Korea' and is now 'telling me what to do at the Summit the Dems could never set up.'

'Schumer failed with North Korea and Iran,' he tweeted, 'we don’t need his advice!'

The 71-year-old billionaire whose birthday is Thursday reassured naysayers Friday that he has ‘been preparing all my life’ for the showdown with Kim and said Saturday at a media availability that 'within the first minute' he expects to know if his negotiating partner is serious about denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula.

The White House claimed in an early Monday morning in a statement that Trump had in fact spent time reviewing documents en route to Singapore that would aide him in his discussions with Kim. He also received briefings, the statement said, from his National Security Adviser John Bolton, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.

'During the flight the President spent time meeting with his staff, reading materials, and preparing for his meetings in Singapore,' the statement from White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said.

His swipes at Trudeau later in the day may have been their own form of political theater, with Trump stringing up the Canadian leader just to beat him down in order to show Kim that he won't be trifled with.

Trump has repeatedly said he will get up and leave the meeting that he now claims will be only a first step in the direction of North Korean denuclearization if talks are not productive.

'If I think it won’t happen, I’m not going to waste my time. I don’t want to waste his time,' Trump said Saturday before departing the G7.

The U.S. president has already called the summit off once in a reminder to Kim that Trump will not tolerate impertinent behavior.

'You have to be able to walk away,' he reminded at a Friday news conference.

The U.S. president and former reality TV star says that the meeting with Kim will be ‘at a minimum’ the beginning of ‘a good relationship’ between himself and the North Korean leader.

A timeline showing the build-up to the historic Trump-Kim summit
The upcoming meeting between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un in Singapore will kick off a potentially lengthy diplomatic process to try to resolve the standoff over Pyongyang's pursuit of nuclear weapons.

Here's a look at how the diplomacy took shape this year:

January 1: After an unusually provocative 2017 during which North Korea tested a purported thermonuclear warhead and three intercontinental ballistic missiles, Kim tries to initiate diplomacy in his annual new year's address. He calls for improved relations and engagement with South Korea, though adds that he has a nuclear button on his desk. Trump responds on Twitter that he has a bigger and more powerful nuclear button, adding 'and my Button works!'

January 9: North and South Korean officials meet at a border village and agree on North Korea sending athletes and delegates to the Winter Olympics in the South. Hundreds of North Koreans go to the Pyeongchang Games in February, including Kim's si
