French President Emmanuel Macron traveled Saturday to Saint Pierre and Miquelon, a small French archipelago off the coast of Canada's Newfoundland, to host Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, according to France 24.

The visit marked the first time a Canadian prime minister has traveled to the North Atlantic territory, which remains under French sovereignty despite its proximity to Canada, France 24 reported.

France 24 said the trip carries symbolic weight as Carney's government pursues what the outlet described as a shift in Ottawa's foreign policy toward Europe, a move that comes amid growing tensions between Canada and the United States.

Details of the specific agenda for the meeting between Macron and Carney were not immediately provided in the report.

Saint Pierre and Miquelon, located near Canada's eastern coast, is one of France's overseas territories and represents the country's only remaining foothold in North America.
