OTTAWA (Reuters) – Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Friday he will travel to the United States on Tuesday to visit the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) headquarters and then partake in the Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles, hosted by U.S. President Joe Biden.
The summit is being convened in the United States for the first time since the first such gathering in Miami in 1994, as Biden seeks to reassert U.S. leadership and counter China’s growing clout.
