Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau said: The world can continue to function without the United States.

Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau stated that even without the United States, the world can make progress on a range of issues. Although the Trump administration boycotted the G20 leaders' meeting held this weekend in Johannesburg, the consensus reached at the meeting still carries weight.

Trudeau said at a press conference on Sunday that this summit "brought together countries representing three-quarters of the world's population, two-thirds of global GDP, and three-quarters of global trade, while the United States was not formally present. This reminds us that the center of the global economy is shifting."

He said, "We are signing new agreements, seeking new investors, and advancing our economic ambitions for Canada. We will expand trade and promote investment by strengthening cooperation in a range of areas from artificial intelligence to energy in the Indo-Pacific region and Europe."

Regarding trade negotiations with the United States, Trudeau said, "I don't have any urgent issues to discuss with the president right now. When the United States is ready to return to trade discussions, we will have those discussions." (Wen Bu Nao)
