Carney to speak with Trump today at the White House meeting with high risk

Prime Minister Mark Carney will meet his American counterpart on Tuesday to attend high-risk meetings-a face-to-face face at a time when bilateral relations are at the lowest point for decades and with a commercial war.

Carney won the elections last week partly because of his promise to defend Canada steadily in the face of President Donald Trump’s tariff and mocked him in the state.

Now, the country expects Carney to present some signs of progress and show that his new liberal government may be able to close this Mingle era.

Carney has put low expectations for this meeting, indicating that it may be time until now before the two countries can formulate a new economic and security arrangement now after another said “End.”

He told reporters late last week: “I do not pretend that these discussions will be easy. They will not have a straight line, there will be guards and zags, ascending and landing.”

On Monday, he asked what he expects from the meeting, Trump said he did not know.

“He is coming to see me. I am not sure of what he wants to see about, but I think he wants to make a deal. Everyone is doing it,” Trump said.

Speaking to CBC News on the background before the meeting, this is the first of what will likely be more meetings between the leaders as the two sides begin to make a new partnership, “said a senior Canadian government official, speaking to CBC News on the background before the meeting.

The official said that Carney had some time alone with the president, behind the glow of television lights, and there will begin to identify and improve relationships.

Laura Dawson is an expert in relations between Canada and the executive director of the future border coalition.

She may not be a satisfactory end of these trade tensions until Carney and his team media mediate in a new agreement in Canada-USA (CUSMA) with Trump, which will get a review next year.

Although it might be painful to carry the customs tariff until then, Dawson said it was in the interest of Canada not to rush to a deal.

“At the moment, Trump feels like he has all the cards. If we settle very quickly, it will not be good for Canada. You just get sharp and rapid deals if the other side surrenders,” she said in an interview.

The trio of ministers with Carney

As part of the batch to reform the relationship, Carney will accompany three ministers in the cabinet who have been active in the Canada and the United States since the relations have gone after the presidential elections last fall: International Trade Minister Dominic Lieblank, Minister of Foreign Affairs Melanie Jolie and Minister of Public Safety David McGantte.

LEBLANC has a direct line of US Minister of Trade Howard Lottenic, the tariff of President Caesar, while Jolie was communicating with Foreign Minister Marco Rubio, who appeared reliable lieutenant in Trump in the first 100 days of the administration.

Meanwhile, McGoeni leads the accumulation of border security in the federal government to satisfy the fears of fentanel and migrants from Trump, although the data appears Canada is not a big problem compared to Mexico. the The latest numbers of customs and US border protection (CBP) Five kilograms of fentanel are seized on the northern border so far this year – compared to 3,040 kg in southwest.

Lutnick started against Canada in an interview with Fox Business only moments after a Carney plane landed in the capital on Monday, saying that the country had a “socialist” system and that it “was feeding on us for decades.”

In addition to the objective political changes that can arise from these meetings, Carney is also looking to avoid this type of speech and the potential oval office Like Ukrainian President Folodimir Zelinski, he would carry him Earlier this year.

It is expected that Vice President JD Vance, who played a leading role in that confrontation, will sit on the same sofa, alongside Trump, at a Carney meeting.

Dawson said that Carney is an experienced international player and will be well informed by diplomats in Washington about a possible confrontation.

She said: “Mark Carney has passed before – that he will not hold his pearls and run out of the room. If there is a little unwanted statement, he will find a way to move to it in a productive way as possible.”

But there is no doubt that Carney’s function is complicated by the behavior of the president sometimes.

Trump has repeatedly raised the possibility that Canada will become part of the United States, saying again on Sunday that he liked to see the “artificial line” between the two countries erasing to create a “beautiful” country that extends from the Gulf coast to the Arctic circle – something that Carney said “will never happen.”

Although commercial data showing the United States depends on Canadian goods – in particular Import about four million barrels of oil per day – Trump said Meet Again during the weekend he does not need “anything” from Canada.

However, Trump’s signs are less hostile than it was just a few months ago.

While former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described the “ruling” at a presentation of disrespect, Trump Carney described as a “nice man” and said, “We will have a great relationship.”

American journalists also reported that Trump was pleased that his interventions had an impact on Canada’s vote.

There is some hope that these small signs of good faith can lead to a kind of decline for Canada, regardless of the possibility of it appears at this stage.

“Our Prime Minister shows power and is respectful of President Trump,” said Candice Ling, CEO of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce.

She said: “It is important that these two leaders have a good link that has been established so that communication and follow -up in the future is easy.”

Evere Essenstat, who served as deputy director of the Economic Council in Trump during the first period of the president, said Trump is linked to tariffs as a revenue generation tool and a method of manufacturing to the United States and it may be difficult to transfer him from this position.

“The relationship is unlikely to be resolved in one meeting, but it is definitely a good start,” he said.
