Russia Not on US Tariff List Despite Broad Global Reach | Sweden Herald

So the source is your reddit comment linking to a statement from a "Whitehouse official". I do not trust anyone representing Donald trump.

Almost the entire world is paralyzed by American tariffs

That tracks. Prove to me he’s not a Russian asset.

Let's see the birth certificate.

Looks more like Russia and USA are in the same trade embargo, while the rest of the world is free to do whatever they want.

Sorry, I don’t support Trump I was just trying to link to the original comment I had made. Not hiding the source. That’s also why I said “apparently”. I just did a quick search and was hoping someone could either correct me or corroborate that view.

Also this is Lemmy… not Reddit?

[riodoro1@lemmy.world]

That finnish president sure talked some sense into him.

[wirebeads@lemmy.ca]

Un-fucking-real.

This presidency will be such a shit stain on the world. The world will never trust the U.S. in the same way it did before.

Over a century of trust and partnerships destroyed in less than 100 days.

Could someone ask Propaganda Barbie about this?

[jasondj@lemmy.zip]

I don't think it landed well but I think he's Rubber/Glue-ing the Obama birth certificate thing back to him.

[cocopanda@futurology.today]

Because we have embargoed all Russian trade. I hope more folks realize this.

[carvex@lemmy.world]

...every accusation is an admission...

[danc4498@lemmy.world]

What’s the trade difference? Aren’t we not allowed to trade with them at all?

Russia imports $17 billions from USA. So we don’t have a trade deficit with Russia.

He’s definitely a Russian troll, but I’m not sure this is the data point to prove it.

[eran_morad@lemmy.world]

Well, uh, who do you think is calling the shots?

Russia does not really trade with the US to a significant degree. It exports next to nothing, but it does import things like electronics for obvious reasons.

Tarrifs on Russia will be pointless, really. Russia has been trading with Europe for the most part until it fell out of favour.

[danc4498@lemmy.world]

That’s what I was thinking. Plenty of reason for outrage. This will just be a distraction.

[galanthus@lemmy.world]

3 billion is nothing.

I wonder how much the EU imports.
