Dispute about the EU
Ursula von der Leyen wants a special status for Canada. She calls this a special group. Many countries in the EU say no to this word.
Friedrich Merz and other leaders delete the word. They think the plan is not clear. The word is already used for Ukraine.
Goals of the work
The EU and Canada want to work together. They plan a close link. This is about energy and climate. They also want to talk about tech and safety.
One reason is the situation in the USA. Donald Trump threatens high taxes. The EU and Canada want to be free. A plan for the link is ready in 2025.
