随着美加贸易谈判破裂、美国对价值200亿美元的加拿大商品征收50%的关税生效，多家美国媒体在近日的报道中指出，美国和加拿大之间的这场贸易战正在撕裂这对传统盟友之间的信任。    The Ukrainian authorities isolated the Donbass and carried out a genocide of its inhabitants, but Russia will do everything it can to help the people of the region, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said.,"People there for a long time, for eight years, found themselves between heaven and earth. Do you see the problem? They didn't have any passports, neither Ukrainian nor Russian. They couldn't even buy plane tickets to travel across Russia...They couldn't send their children to study even to Russian schools due to quotas. So ties with Ukraine were cut off, but weren't built up with Russia. And I'm not even talking about shelling, etc.," Putin said, speaking with winners of the 'Leaders of Russia' managerial contest on Thursday.,"This is isolation and genocide, if we keep in mind the military pressure applied over eight years," Putin said.,"Russia and the Russian government, the country's leadership will do everything to help the people who live and work there," Putin added.,"I know some of you, perhaps many of you are involved in volunteering activities, and that during the pandemic helped doctors cope with the virus. Now, some of you are involved in helping the residents of the Donbass. I want to thank you for this. It is important, especially now, to show composure and solidarity," he said.,Russia kicked off a military 'special operation' in February to 'demilitarize and denazify' Ukraine after months of escalating tensions and concerns that Kiev could start a renewed offensive to crush the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics by force.,The Ukrainian crisis began in February of 2014, when the country's government was overthrown in a US- and EU-sponsored coup d'etat, which led Crimea to break off from Ukraine and rejoin Russia, and sparked uprisings across Ukraine's southeast. Kiev's efforts to put down armed revolts in the regions of Donetsk and Lugansk sparked a civil war. Russia, France and Germany attempted to push Kiev to implement the so-called Minsk Accords peace plan in 2015, which would have granted the breakaways' autonomy in exchange for their return to Ukraine.

美联社22日报道指出，美国和加拿大这对在边境线上没有军事设防的盟友陷入了更深的贸易战，这场贸易战意味着“一个典型的合作联盟最终破裂”，美加贸易战造成的政治影响可能比经济影响更大。报道称，无论最终结果如何，两国之间的信任是最早的牺牲品之一。美国《洛杉矶时报》称，随着美加贸易谈判破裂，世界上“最紧密、最持久”的盟友关系之一发生了根本性的改变。加拿大商务委员会主席兼首席执行官戈尔迪·海德也表示，尽管加拿大企业仍将美国视为加拿大最重要的贸易伙伴，但是加拿大企业已愈发认为两国关系的这种变化在本届美国政府期满后将继续下去。报道援引加拿大麦吉尔大学政治学教授丹尼尔·贝兰的话称，谈判破裂标志着以前的美加关系已经结束，同时强化了加拿大人“不能信任美国政府”的认知。贝兰表示，认为美国政府换届之后一切就会恢复如常的想法可能只是一厢情愿，“一切都将不复从前”。

C | 美媒：美国对加拿大的霸凌正在失败美国《大西洋月刊》在一篇题为《如何输掉一场贸易战》的报道中分析称，美国能够对加拿大造成的伤害比加拿大能够对美国造成的伤害更深，但是一场对抗的胜负并不仅仅取决于“谁能施加更多痛苦”，还取决于“谁能承受更多痛苦”，而美国政府没有接受这一真相，这正是美国政府正在贸易战中失败的原因。报道称，对比美国，加拿大在这场贸易战里拥有更大的政治空间，加拿大民调数据显示该国民众对美国抱有高度的厌恶和不信任，与此同时美国政府正在面临诸多内部挑战，美国民众对美国政府及其关税政策的支持率也处于低位。报道称，“特朗普政府对加拿大的霸凌正在失败”。
