  "summary": "French President Emmanuel Macron and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, not Mark Carney, met on Sunday at Saint Pierre and Miquelon, a French territory off Canada's Newfoundland. According to France 24, this was the first-ever visit by a Canadian leader to the North Atlantic archipelago. The meeting took place as both countries have increasingly awkward relations with the US.\n\nThe leaders called for stronger bilateral ties in the face of new global threats. Macron posted on X, \"In a world in crisis, our friendship is a strength. Together, we affirm our sovereignty, our freedom to decide and our willingness to build a future of peace and prosperity.\"\n\nThe New Straits Times reported that the meeting was held at a time when both their countries are experiencing strained relations with the United States. The archipelago, a three-island group with fewer than 6,000 people, is France's only remaining possession in North America.",
