Trump a interzis alcoolul din Canada. Ce se întâmplă acum cu whisky-ul preferat de americani

President Donald Trump has banned imports of alcoholic beverages from Canada, escalating trade tensions. This measure affects approximately $800 million worth of Canadian products annually. An exception allows Canadian whisky and liquors in containers over four liters to be imported without tariffs, but this requires changes in transportation and packaging, potentially increasing costs. The ban is justified by claims of Canadian discrimination against U.S. companies, relying on a 1930 tariff law. The alcohol industry in the U.S. has already felt the impact, with a 70% drop in exports to Canada. Canadian producers heavily depend on the U.S. market, with 93% of their spirits exported there. Trump believes this will push Canada to negotiate, but Canadian officials have not confirmed this expectation.
