REPLAY: Canadian PM Mark Carney addresses EU Parliament
Here's the replay of Mark Carney's address to the European Parliament on Thursday, September 17, after President Donald Trump suggested that allowing Canada to become an associate EU member could be seen as a "hostile act"
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney addressed the European Parliament. This comes after a proposal by Ursula von der Leyen to make Canada the EU's first "associate member", according to Politico EU. The proposal has raised questions about the new status and its implications.
The idea was met with a warning from US President Donald Trump, who threatened "serious tariffs" on Europe if it followed through. Canada is looking to strengthen its ties beyond its North American neighbor, while Europe seeks to enhance its security and independence.
