Breaking-News >> WorldNews US media: Canadian Foreign Minister plans to visit China in the next few weeks to seek to ease tensions
According to Bloomberg news agency local time, Canadian Foreign Minister Anand will visit China and India in the coming weeks to seek to improve tensions with the two countries. In an interview on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York, USA, Anand said that Canada must "ensure our bilateral relationship with important economic powers in the 'Indo-Pacific region'". She also said that she would discuss with China and India how to cooperate on issues that have plagued Canada's relations with China and India in recent years. Anand said she plans to advance Canada's interests in trade, climate change, defense and security during her visit. According to Bloomberg's analysis, the dispute during the tenure of former Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau has caused tensions between Canada and China and the United States, and the current Prime Minister Carney is working to ease this situation. At the same time, the trade protectionism policy of the United States has increasingly highlighted the necessity of Canada's diversified trade relations. At the same time, since the Canadian government imposed discriminatory tariffs of 100% and 25% respectively on Chinese electric vehicles and steel and aluminum products in two phases in October 2024 on the grounds of "protecting local industries" and following U.S. policies, China has since August this year Temporary anti-dumping measures will be taken on Canadian rapeseed from March 14, levying a 75.8% deposit. Around the trade of rapeseed, pork and seafood, the Canadian economy has suffered a bigger impact. It is understood that Canada is the world's largest producer and exporter of rapeseed, accounting for more than 50% of global rapeseed trade, and China has always been the main destination of Canadian rapeseed exports. Canada's Global Post that after China imposed a temporary guarantee, Canada's oil seed export costs soared and lost China's $4.9 billion worldwide second-largest market, with 40,000 oil seed growers per capita in Western Canada losing tens of thousands of dollars. In the current situation, the Western Canadian province pressured the federal government to cancel tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles to avoid China's tariffs on Canada's oil seed. Canney said on Monday that he would work to resolve the trade dispute between Canada and China over the oil seed. Canada's largest oil seed production province, Saskatchewan, also visited China this month to promote China's "punitive tariffs" on Canada's oil seed collection. Regarding the ongoing tensions between Canada and India, the "Indian Express" stated that in September 2023, Trudeau, then Prime Minister of Canada, publicly accused the Indian government of being involved in the assassination of Canadian Sikh leader Nijjar. Nijar was shot and killed in Canada in June 2023. In this regard, the Indian side denies it. The two countries accused each other of expelling each other's diplomats. India once stopped issuing visas to Canadian personnel, and bilateral relations deteriorated sharply. However, the diplomatic relations between the two countries have picked up recently, and they resumed sending diplomats to each other for the first time in August this year after nearly 10 months. Bloomberg said that this move comes at a time when relations between the two countries and the United States are increasingly tense.
