Prime Minister Mark Carney says he expects to eventually meet with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, as talks between Canada and China continue to “deepen” following recent official engagements.
Carney made the comments on Sept. 23 on the sidelines of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, following an in-person meeting with Chinese Premier Li Qiang. The two discussed trade “sensitivities” and agreed to continue talks, including at the highest levels of government, according to a readout from the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO).
