US EditionCarney calls on middle powers to band together in World Economic Forum speech
Carney called for middle powers to unite against coercion by great powers and to build alliances for strategic autonomy amid the collapse of the U.S.-led international order.
- On Tuesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Mark Carney urged middle powers to unite, saying `Middle powers must act together because if we're not at the table, we're on the menu` .
- Drawing on Václav Havel's 1978 essay, Carney warned the old bargain no longer works and said economic rules are enforced asymmetrically by the strongest using tariffs, financial infrastructure, and supply chains.
- Amid Arctic tensions, Carney affirmed Canada's support for Greenland, Denmark and Nato, backing Denmark's right to determine Greenland's future after President Donald Trump's fake image and Saturday tariffs.
- He said Canada is focused on engaging partners and building different coalitions for different issues, warning that without shared rules, gains from transactionalism will be harder to replicate.
- Carney's remarks arrived as Donald Trump, U.S. President, prepared to speak on Wednesday, and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said Canada's GDP is 75 percent dependent on the United States.

Carney's call at Davos could be start of a new 'non-aligned movement'
Canada's prime minister Mark Carney had a proposal at Davos — 'middle states' should work together, not taking sides between the US, Russia or China, but defending free trade and international law. This is a nice idea, but the question is whether it is powerful enough to calm the world and restore some order to the chaos.
In Davos, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney outlined what no one in Europe has dared to do: a West without the USA, even after Trump.
