President Biden expresses pride in his friendship with Trudeau as both leaders prepare to step down from their roles
Ottawa: So, President Biden just gave a shout-out to Prime Minister Trudeau, calling him a good friend. It’s kind of a big deal since both are stepping down soon.
Biden had a chat with Trudeau right after he announced he’d resign once a new Liberal leader is picked. It’s like they’re both moving on at the same time.
And guess what? Biden’s also leaving the White House soon, with Trump coming back for another round. Talk about a shake-up!
In a statement, Biden said the bond between the U.S. and Canada is stronger thanks to Trudeau, even with some trade tensions brewing.
Biden reminisced about how Trudeau was the first foreign leader he spoke to after taking office. They’ve tackled a lot together, from COVID to climate issues.
Interestingly, the response from other world leaders to Trudeau’s resignation has been pretty quiet, even though he focused on global connections during his time in charge.
This news was first reported by The Canadian Press on January 7, 2025.
