OTTAWA (Reuters) – Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spoke to Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday for about 10 minutes on the sidelines of a G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, a Canadian government source said.
During the conversation, Trudeau raised the issue of Chinese “interference activities” in Canada, the source said, which is likely a reference to recent reports that China allegedly meddled in the 2019 election and to the arrest of an alleged Chinese spy on Monday.
