Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said his top priority in talks with King Charles on Monday will be protecting Canada’s sovereignty, following U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent remarks about absorbing Canada as the 51st U.S. state.
Trudeau, speaking ahead of the meeting, stressed that "nothing is more important to Canadians than standing up for our sovereignty and independence."
The talks follow King Charles' invitation for Trump to make a state visit to Britain, a proposal delivered by U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer in Washington last week.
Trump has repeatedly suggested that Canada would be better off as part of the U.S., linking the idea to the country’s abundant natural resources. Trudeau, who announced his plans to step down, previously called Trump’s remarks "a real thing", warning that they could not be dismissed.
Asked about Trump’s recent meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Trudeau reaffirmed his position: "I stand with Zelenskyy."
The King Charles meeting will highlight Canada’s stance on sovereignty, as Trudeau seeks to reaffirm the country’s independence on the global stage.
