CANADA’S NEW PM CARNEY VISITS DOWNING STREET – First Overseas Trip
Canada’s new Prime Minister, Mark Carney, visited 10 Downing Street as he seeks to strengthen ties with “reliable allies” in Europe.
Carney’s decision to visit Paris and London instead of Washington, as is usual for Canadian leaders, comes after U.S. President Donald Trump escalated tensions with both Canada and Europe.
The former Bank of England governor earlier met King Charles, both Canada and Britain’s head of state, before the meeting with British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer, in Downing Street.
