The Prime Minister said that, as a middle power, Canada understands how important it is to protect the rules-based international order

Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau opposed any deal letting Russia keep Ukrainian land, saying it would encourage other countries to break international rules.

Speaking to a NATO meeting, he highlighted Canada’s $19.5 billion aid to Ukraine and stressed the need to defend global stability.

Trudeau defended his plan to raise military spending to 2% of GDP by 2032 after criticism of Canada’s low defense funding.

He warned against isolating Ukraine, saying continued support is crucial to stop further global conflicts.

      Zelensky has already said the war will end quicker under Trump, which means he’s probably already had a chat with the new regime and is resigned to surrendering most of the land Russia have already taken.

      And none of it will stop Russia regrouping and trying again in a few years.

        I do not know if the war will end quicker under Trump.

        But saying it will not end quicker under Trump (now that he’s elected) will send you back to politics 101.

        IMO.
