Prime Minister Mark Carney and U.S President Donald Trump pointed and smiled at each other as they sat down for dinner together in South Korea on Oct. 29, marking their first interaction in person since Trump called off all trade negotiations with Canada last week.
The two leaders sat across from each other among a small group of leaders who were invited to a dinner hosted by South Korean President Lee Jae-Myung, ahead of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit set to begin on Oct. 31. Signs on the dinner tables indicated the dinner was in honour of Trump “and state leaders.”
