Quick Summary

Prime Minister Mark Carney will close his attendance at the UN General Assembly by co-hosting an event called OceanEye International Alliance with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. The event aims to foster collaboration in observing and sharing data on ocean changes and challenges, following von der Leyen’s recent suggestion that Canada could become the first “associate member” of a proposed arrangement. Carney’s advocacy for global alliances has drawn criticism from U.S. President Donald Trump, who did not meet with Carney during the assembly.

Story summary

Mark Carney, Canada's Prime Minister, co-hosted an event with Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, during the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

Von der Leyen committed 100 million euros ($160 million) to support oceanic research, while Carney pledged a matching $82 million over five years. Both leaders highlighted the importance of multilateral cooperation in addressing climate change challenges, particularly after U.S. President Donald Trump's criticisms of international organizations and global warming at the UN Assembly.
