Macron and Carney pledge closer ties in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon meeting

hindustantimes.com — September 20, 2026 at 08:01 PM UTC

French President Emmanuel Macron and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney pledged closer cooperation on Sunday during a meeting in Saint-Pierre and Miquelon, a French territory off Canada's Atlantic coast, amid rising tensions with the United States. The leaders discussed geopolitical challenges, climate change, and democratic erosion, with Carney stating the time has come to strengthen ties. Macron said they agreed to forge closer links in sectors including space, climate, and energy, while dismissing a recent social media post by US President Donald Trump that depicted the territory under the US flag. The visit, the first by a French president since 2014, carried symbolic weight following Trump's post. France views the territory as strategically important near the US and Arctic, and Paris hopes Canada will expand liquefied natural gas exports to Europe.
