Mark Carney shows willingness to talk to Donald Trump
Until recently, Carney had worked as a UN special envelope for the financing of climate protection measures. Politically, however, he is considered a newcomer, and he has never been elected to an office before.
In his election campaign for the party chairmanship, Carney had promised to bring the “economy back on course” and in particular to offer US President Donald Trump’s forehead. On Wednesday, Carney had a willingness to talk to US President Trump.
