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.

Zelenskyy further underscored the deepening defence ties between the two nations, noting Canada’s interest in military-industrial collaboration.
