Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and two of his top cabinet ministers have touched down in Seoul, South Korea, hoping to make headway on an economic insurance policy.
Diversifying supply chains post-pandemic and resisting economic coercion are among the major topics that Group of Seven leaders will discuss this weekend when they convene in Hiroshima, Japan.
"We've been subjected to Chinese coercion very recently, and various, different kinds of Chinese interference," said Roland Paris, a professor of international affairs at the University of Ottawa and a former foreign policy adviser to Trudeau. Paris said leading countries to push back against economic bullying is in the same league, because they're "working together to try to deter China from taking actions that target specific countries, in effect saying, 'We will work together to try and resist these efforts.'"
