Zelenskyy and Canada’s new PM Mark Carney discussed military aid, sanctions on Russia, and defence cooperation, highlighting stronger ties and Ukraine’s role in Canada’s G7 agenda.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on Sunday that he had spoken with Canada’s newly appointed Prime Minister, Mark Carney, discussing military assistance, sanctions against Russia, and bilateral cooperation in defence production.
In a statement on Telegram, Zelenskyy congratulated Carney on taking office and expressed gratitude for Canada’s ongoing support. “I expressed my appreciation to Canada for its assistance, particularly the defence packages and its backing of our energy sector,” he stated.
He stressed the importance of intensifying pressure on Russia, including the implementation of "comprehensive sanctions" to achieve a "just and lasting peace."
“We also spoke about the humanitarian aspect of security guarantees for Ukraine, covering post-war reconstruction and economic support. We will continue working on this,” Zelenskyy added.
The conversation also touched upon Ukraine’s place on Canada’s G7 presidency agenda, with both leaders highlighting the need for stronger cooperation.
Zelenskyy further underscored the deepening defence ties between the two nations, noting Canada’s interest in military-industrial collaboration.
“Through the course of this war, we have gained substantial expertise in the production of electronic warfare systems, long-range missiles, and drones. Ukraine is prepared for joint production,” he said.
Canada has backed the US-led initiative for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine. While Russia has agreed to the proposal in principle, it has insisted that the underlying causes of the conflict must be addressed.
