Trump lucrează la un acord comercial masiv cu un aliat al Rusiei, pe fondul războiului comercial cu Canada

U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans for a significant deal to purchase fertilizers from Belarus, moving away from Canada amid escalating trade tensions. He highlighted the lower prices from Belarus, which would benefit American farmers. This shift indicates a willingness to engage with Belarus despite its political repression and support for Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The U.S. has been importing most of its potash, essential for fertilizers, with prices rising since the Ukraine conflict began. While some political prisoners were released, many remain incarcerated under President Lukashenko's regime, which has faced renewed sanctions from the West. Opposition leader Sviatlana Tsihanouskaya warned against trading with Lukashenko, emphasizing the risks involved.
