G20 trade talks in Milwaukee as tariffs and tensions reshape global commerce Canada, the EU and India could gain ground—see what the talks may mean next
Trade ministers from major economies are gathering in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for a G20 meeting shaped by the Trump administration’s tariff agenda and growing trade tensions.
Canada is using the summit to push its diversification strategy and seek stronger ties with partners including the European Union and India, while U.S. officials are expected to focus on World Trade Organization reform and other trade priorities.
The meeting comes after negotiations between Canada and the U.S. stalled in August, and after new U.S. restrictions on some Canadian goods took effect this week, adding to uncertainty for businesses and global supply chains.
