Canada PM Carney Holds Security Talks with India, China, US Over Trade, Law Enforcement

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has been actively engaging with global leaders to address strained international relations and trade conflicts. Carney held a constructive phone call with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, agreeing to maintain ongoing law enforcement dialogue and inviting Modi to the 2025 G7 Summit in Canada, signaling a reset in bilateral ties. In parallel, Carney and Chinese Premier Li Qiang agreed to regularize communication channels and hold deputy-minister level talks to resolve a damaging trade war triggered by Canadian tariffs on Chinese goods, while also committing to cooperate on combating fentanyl trafficking. These efforts come amid pressure from Canadian regional leaders to lift Chinese tariffs that harm Canadian farmers and seafood producers. Additionally, Carney is in direct communication with U.S. President Donald Trump as part of diplomatic negotiations to resolve ongoing trade disputes between Canada and the U.S. These diplomatic engagements underscore Canada's strategic efforts to manage complex international economic and security challenges.
