Canada’s participation at APEC ended with a pledge of nearly $183-million in new funding over five years to strengthen ties to the Indo-Pacific
plays in the region, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Friday in Thailand.
Trudeau told his five colleagues that Canada will continue its role in a United Nations mission, called Operation Neon, to monitor sanctions on North Korea. “This will increase Canada’s presence here on the ground deepen diplomatic ties to build and maintain the important relationships that we are creating,” International Trade Minister Mary Ng said Friday.
“As the world moves towards net zero, there is enormous potential to grow our ties in the natural resources sector.” Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha noted that sporadic engagement Thursday when he welcomed Trudeau to his Bangkok residence.“I hope that this visit, this particularly short one, will be as memorable” as the one Trudeau made in his youth, Prayut said.“Canada is serious about this, this region, we have always been,” he said
Xi was filmed Wednesday accusing Trudeau of harming diplomatic relations by sharing details with the media about a prior meeting. Beijing later accused Canada of acting in a “condescending manner” toward China. Macron also attended the lunch as a non-APEC invitee, while Thailand had invited Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on behalf of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations.
