Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney jumped in to thank Trump for accidentally calling him the president. “I’m glad you upgraded me,” Carney grinned.
“Oh, did I?” Trump joked, eager to have the last laugh, before adding, “At least I didn’t say governor.” That quip was aimed at Carney’s predecessor Justin Trudeau, who Trump trolled at length during his two terms as U.S. president.
Trudeau, for his part, was unlikely to be paying too much attention given his other priorities right now.
Orbán’s bows
In a bizarre scene, Hungary’s nationalist Prime Minister Viktor Orbán slowly emerged from behind a cluster of leaders and offered a low, deliberate bow to Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, who was in mid-conversation with former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair.
Observers were left guessing: Was it formal protocol, a gesture of flattery, or simple diplomatic confusion? Or perhaps an inside joke.
Praise or warning?
If Orbán was bowing, Trump took a blunter approach to the Azerbaijani leader.
