During his first overseas visit, Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney emphasized the need to strengthen ties with "reliable allies" in Europe, meeting French President Emmanuel Macron. The visit comes amid escalating tensions with the U.S., particularly over trade and political issues.
Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney said that it was important for Canada to strengthen ties with "reliable allies" in Europe, as he met French President Emmanuel Macron on Monday for his first overseas visit amid tensions with the United States.
"(It) is more important than ever for Canada to strengthen its ties with reliable allies like France," Carney said, ahead of a working lunch with Macron at the Elysee Palace, noting that Canada was "the most European of non-European countries."
Carney visits London later on Monday. Macron said Canada was a good example of a country that defends its national interests while being collaborative on the global scene.
"I think we both believe that fair trade that respects international rules is good for everyone's prosperity, and is certainly more effective than tariffs," Macron said.
Trump has shocked Western allies by imposing tariffs on their imports, questioning traditional alliances, and even floating threats of annexation for Canada or the Danish territory of Greenland since he came to office in January.
It is unclear how long Trump's tariffs will last, or what is driving his aspirations for Canada to become the 51st U.S. state.
