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.

    only to be attacked.

    You can defend yourself from an attacker even if your government gives 0 public money to the war industry.

        I know i shouldn’t answer to idiots but here you go:

        You and your government are two different things. If someone attack you you can defend yourself even if the government doesn’t put a gun in your hands. Some example? The 200$ drones they are using in ukraine to defend themself.
