Justin Trudeau’s G20 visit: Plane troubles, diplomatic tension, & backlash
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s trip to the G20 Summit in New Delhi was extended by a night after the official aircraft could not takeoff on the designated time due to technical issues. Stranded for an additional night in New Delhi, Trudeau chose to stay in his hotel room while the aircraft was fixed or an alternative travel plan was made. This and other incidents have drawn backlash from Canada over Trudeau’s entire G20 trip to India.
