Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly and International Trade Minister Mary Ng speak with reporters in Bali, Indonesia, where they are attending the G20 leaders’ summit alongside Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Minister Joly responds to questions concerning her meeting earlier in the day with her Chinese counterpart. That meeting comes just days after the publication of Canadian media reports alleging that China interfered in Canada’s 2019 federal election. The ministers also discuss Canada’s announcement of $750 million in funding to finance infrastructure projects in the Indo-Pacific region.
