- December 6, 2018 USA requests Canada to arrested Meng. They also could
have requested Mexico to arrest Meng, which was the destination of Meng's
trip. But they chose Canada for the single purpose to ruin the Canada-China
free trade deal. Canada on the other hand dropped the ball. They could use
backchannel to warn Meng, but didn't, which got themselves to be between a
rock and hard place.
The outcome:
China has no choice but to retaliate. This strategic move by the USA has
permanently damaged relationship between Canada and China, and ruined any
hope of free trade between the two countries for the foreseeable future. | a*******g 发帖数: 3500 | | S**C 发帖数: 2964 | 3 US had a great game, Canada was fucked. Job well done USA.
