Proletarians, disconnect

US President Donald Trump signed a decree on the country's withdrawal from the Transstoocian partnership - a trade union uniting 12 states of North and South America, Asia and Oceania. It is reported by Reuters.

Trump called his decision "a great good for an American working person."

According to The Washington Post, the President’s gesture is largely formal, since the agreement on the Transstoocaan partnership has not yet been ratified by Congress and would hardly have been approved by deputies. Nevertheless, the newspaper continues, the signing of the decree indicates that Trump's statements about the need for protectionist measures for American manufacturers were not just election rhetoric - he is really configured to introduce these measures.

The agreement on the Transstoocian partnership was signed less than a year ago - in February 2016. In addition to the United States, Australia, Brunei, Vietnam, Canada, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, Chile and Japan include.

The refusal to participate in the Transstoocian partnership was one of Trump’s election program.
