MONTREAL, Canada—Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, on July 4, said U.S. President Donald Trump had raised the case of two detained Canadians with China and insisted Ottawa’s efforts to pressure the Chinese regime were working.
China detained Michael Kovrig and Michael Spavor after Canadian authorities arrested Huawei’s chief financial officer Meng Wanzhou last December on a U.S. warrant. Meng was arrested at the Vancouver International Airport on Dec. 1 at the request of the U.S. government, which alleges that Huawei, one of China’s flagship telecom companies, violated sanctions restricting the sale of most goods to Iran.
