  • German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Sunday left for a three-day visit to Canada focused on boosting energy security in Europe’s largest economy.
  • Scholz and his deputy and energy minister, Robert Habeck of the Greens, landed in Montreal late on Sunday local time and were greeted by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his deputy, Chrystia Freeland.
  • Up for discussion will be the supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG), although it was unclear whether this would meet Germany’s short-term needs.
