"It has been a historic and productive two days, and I am very pleased to announce that we have made significant progress in a number of key areas. Stepping back, it's been eight years since a Canadian Prime Minister visited China. And in that time, the world has changed dramatically. The technological revolution and the energy transition are accelerating at an unprecedented pace. The global trading system is undergoing a fundamental change. And the effectiveness of multilateral institutions on which trading powers such as Canada and China have greatly relied, that effectiveness has been greatly reduced. This is happening fast. It's large, it's a rupture, it's not a transition."

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Friday that his visit to China had been "historic and productive" and that the two sides had made significant progress in several key areas, underscoring the importance of trade ties between the two countries.

Carney made the remarks during a media briefing in Beijing on the third day of his visit to China.

The visit is notable as it is the first by a Canadian prime minister in eight years.

"It has been a historic and productive two days, and I am very pleased to announce that we have made significant progress in a number of key areas. Stepping back, it's been eight years since a Canadian Prime Minister visited China. And in that time, the world has changed dramatically. The technological revolution and the energy transition are accelerating at an unprecedented pace. The global trading system is undergoing a fundamental change. And the effectiveness of multilateral institutions on which trading powers such as Canada and China have greatly relied, that effectiveness has been greatly reduced. This is happening fast. It's large, it's a rupture, it's not a transition," said Carney.

He also said that multilateralism is the cornerstone of global security and stability.

When meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Carney reaffirmed Canada's commitment to the one-China principle. He said his country is willing to work with China in the same direction, respecting each other and working together to expand cooperation in areas such as the economy, trade, energy and climate change.
