DAVOS, SWITZERLAND — Prime Minister Mark Carney delivered a striking speech at the World Economic Forum in which he exhorted countries to band together and speak out against bullies and “hegemons” but didn’t call out any by name. Carney delivered his starkest speech yet on the state of the world during a plenary session of the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland, on Tuesday. Tariffs as leverage, financial infrastructure as coercion, supply chains as vulnerabilities to be exploited,” Carney declared, presumably about the U.S. and China. Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen who explicitly named the U.S. and its president, Carney never uttered the words “United States,” “Trump” or any other country. Yet in the same speech, he called on other countries to call out powerful states who engage in bullying or coercion.
