Prime Minister Mark Carney said he had several conversations with U.S. President Donald Trump during the G7 Summit in France, even though no official bilateral meeting was scheduled between the two leaders.
Speaking to reporters, Carney noted that they exchanged words while walking together at the summit. He described the interactions as constructive, though no specific details were provided about the topics discussed.
The Canadian prime minister also mentioned that he has seen a tentative U.S.-Iran peace deal and called the conflict 'worth it,' though he did not elaborate further.
The G7 Summit brought together leaders from Canada, the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom to discuss global issues including trade, security, and climate change.
Carney's remarks come amid ongoing trade tensions between Canada and the U.S., with both countries engaged in negotiations over the CUSMA trade agreement.
