Trudeau expected to travel to Ukraine as envoy calls on Canada to ‘step up’
Global News
Volodymyr Zelenskyy confirmed during a news conference in Kyiv Sunday evening that he will meet with Justin Trudeau and other foreign leaders in Ukraine during a summit on Monday.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will join world leaders in Kyiv on Monday as Ukraine marks the third anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said, as a Ukrainian diplomat urged Canada to “step up” its support.
Zelenskyy confirmed during a news conference in Kyiv Sunday evening that he will meet with Trudeau in person – one of 13 foreign leaders attending a summit on peace and security for Ukraine.
“Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will be here with a visit tomorrow,” Zelenskyy said in Ukrainian.
“He is chairing the G7 at the moment so he will tell me what is happening with the relationship with the U.S.”
The news conference was translated into English by Ukrainian broadcaster UATV.
The Prime Minister’s Office has not publicly confirmed Trudeau’s trip and did not respond to questions about Zelenskyy’s remarks Sunday.
This would be Trudeau’s fourth visit to Ukraine since the war began, and will almost certainly be his last as Canada’s prime minister. He has said he will step down after a new Liberal leader is chosen on March 9.
Zelenskyy said European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and delegates from Nordic and Baltic countries are also attending Monday’s summit in person, and two dozen leaders will join virtually.
