Carney's Davos Warning: Unite Against Global Coercion

Carney’s Blunt Message to Davos: The Rules-Based Order Is Dead Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney used a major address in Davos to argue that the world’s middle powers must band together to resist coercion from aggressive superpowers. Recent events have shown the “rules-based international order” is effectively dead, Carney said, which means Canada and other countries have no choice but to create new alliances to oppose pressure tactics and intimidation by the world’s great powers. His speech didn’t mention US President Donald Trump by name.
