Lovitură pentru relația Europei cu Trump: Parlamentul European își deschide birou la Ottawa, în timp ce Canada caută statut de „membru asociat” al UE, în plin război comercial cu SUA

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney has proposed initiating discussions for a unique association alliance with the EU, emphasizing a strategic partnership rather than formal membership. The talks are in early stages without a defined partnership format. This announcement comes amid significant trade tensions with the U.S. following tariffs imposed by the Trump administration. Additionally, the European Parliament plans to open an office in Ottawa to strengthen political relations and enhance dialogue on strategic issues such as trade and security. The move reflects Canada's search for new economic partnerships in light of deteriorating U.S.-Canada relations.
