Donald Trump veered unexpectedly into a rant about Canadian ice hockey when asked about London’s efforts to reset relations with Beijing.
Speaking on Thursday, the 79-year-old president warned that closer ties with China could have far-reaching consequences for Canada, suggesting that Beijing could one day exert influence even over the country’s national sport.
The off-topic remark came in response to a reporter’s question about British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing this week, part of a broader effort by the U.K. and China to improve bilateral relations.
