Senior diplomat skeptical of Carney’s middle powers pitch
Malaysia's High Commissioner in Canada, Shazelina Abidin, expressed skepticism about Prime Minister Mark Carney's proposal for middle powers to unite against dominant great powers.
Abidin described Carney's World Economic Forum speech as profound mainly because it was delivered by a G7 leader, not for its content.
She noted that past attempts by middle powers to unite have failed due to unclear definitions of included countries.
Indian officials indicated a preference to cooperate with like-minded nations rather than using the term 'middle powers'.
