Justin Trudeau meets Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy on surprise trip to Kyiv
Trudeau last travelled to Ukraine just over a year ago, where he reopened the Canadian Embassy in Kyiv and met Zelenskyy in person for the first time since the war began.
Earlier Saturday, Britain’s defence ministry reported “significant Ukrainian operations” in the country’s east and south since Thursday morning, with gains in some areas. Earlier this week, a hydroelectric dam on the Dnieper River ruptured, flooding a large part of the front line in southern Ukraine and worsening the humanitarian situation — including the need for drinking water — in an area that was already undergoing shelling.
Canada has joined other countries in condemning Russian President Vladimir Putin’s regime for the incursion, including through economic sanctions. It also gave some $1 billion in military support, including the donation of eight Leopard 2 main battle tanks to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Canada has also recently joined Latvia in delivering training to Ukrainian soldiers being promoted to junior military officers, building on a program that focuses on teaching battlefield tactics.
