NEW YORK: In reactions to US President Donald Trump’s move to acquire Greenland and his renewed interest in annexing Canada, leaders at the World Economic Forum in Davos have called for unity among the middle powers to resist pressures from the great powers.
French President Emmanuel Macron said the answer to the “instability and imbalances” facing the world is to build “bridges and more cooperation with the emerging countries, the BRICs and the G20, because the fragmentation of this world will not make sense”.
India is a member of BRICS and the G20.
Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney said, “The middle powers must act together because if you are not at the table, you’re on the menu”.
