Prime Minister Mark Carney departs Sunday to meet with European and NATO allies amid heightened tension in the Middle East and mere hours after the United States joined Israel’s war with Iran.
The first stop will be in Brussels on Monday, where the prime minister is expected to sign a comprehensive security and defence partnership with the European Union.
U.S. President Donald Trump bailed early on last week’s G7 summit in Kananaskis, Alta., saying he was needed at the White House to deal with the evolving war where Israel is attempting to not only destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities, but to instigate regime change.
Carney comes bearing grifts for his EU and WEF pals.
I suspect the talk of adopting Trump’s desired goal of a 5% NATO spend is just hot air.
