加拿大总理马克·卡尼于周三抵达沙特阿拉伯,成为 26 年来首位访问该国的加拿大领导人 [1]。此次访问旨在加强两国经济联系并推动贸易多元化,以帮助加拿大减少对美国的依赖,应对特朗普关税威胁及美墨加协定带来的不确定性 [1]。与此同时,沙特方面希望通过吸引外资来推动其经济多元化计划,摆脱对石油的过度依赖 [1]。
卡尼将于周四会见沙特王储穆罕默德·本·萨勒曼,并出席沙特 - 加拿大投资论坛及签约仪式 [1]。双方此次会晤标志着两国在结束因 2018 年人权争议引发的长期裂痕后关系的进一步正常化;加沙与沙特已于 2023 年恢复全面外交关系 [1][1]。
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney arrived in Riyadh on Wednesday for a state visit marking the first time a Canadian leader has visited the Kingdom in 26 years [1]. The trip aims to strengthen bilateral economic links and promote trade diversification, specifically seeking to reduce reliance on the United States amid threats of tariffs from President Trump and uncertainties surrounding the USMCA agreement [1]. During his stay, Carney is scheduled to meet with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on Thursday for a signing ceremony at the Canada-Saudi Investment Forum [1]. This high-level engagement follows the restoration of full diplomatic relations between Ottawa and Riyadh in 2023, which ended years of estrangement caused by human rights disputes dating back to 2018 [1]. The visit also supports Saudi Arabia's efforts to attract foreign investment as part of its plan to diversify its economy away from oil dependence [1].
