Canada răspunde presiunilor lui Trump după apropierea de UE. Premierul canadian: Nimeni nu ne va dicta cu cine putem încheia acorduri

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney emphasized the strengthening ties between Canada and the European Union, asserting that Ottawa will not be dictated by the U.S. regarding its agreements. He responded to U.S. President Donald Trump's threats of tariffs if Canada pursued closer relations with the EU. Carney highlighted Canada's right to make its own international decisions and rejected external pressures on its policies. He welcomed the idea of Canada potentially becoming the first 'associated member' of the EU, as proposed by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. Carney stated that the terminology used for this relationship is less important than the substance of the partnership being built.
