Trump Withdraws Gaza Board of Peace Invite to Canada PM Carney Amid Davos Spat

  • US President Donald Trump withdrew the invitation for Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney to join the Gaza Board of Peace on January 23.
  • The decision was announced by Trump on his social media platform Truth Social through an open letter to Carney.
  • The withdrawal follows a public war of words between Trump and Carney at the World Economic Forum (WEF) Summit 2026 in Davos, Switzerland.
  • Carney criticized the use of economic integration as weapons and the threat to multilateral institutions in his Davos speech.
  • Trump responded by stating "Canada lives because of the United States," to which Carney retorted, "Canada thrives because we are Canadian."
