New Delhi, Jan. 27 -- Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed on Tuesday (January 27) that he spoke with Donald Trump on Monday, following remarks he made last week that reportedly drew irritation from the US President. Carney, however, denied claims that he had walked back his statements.

The controversy stems from Carney's speech in Davos, where he urged nations to accept the end of a rules-based global order. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent commented that Carney "was very aggressively walking back" some of his remarks after the speech.
