Canada's newly appointed Prime Minister Mark Carney first spoke to Ukrainian President Voldy Mirzelensky on Sunday on a call with a foreign head of state.
Carney became prime minister on Friday after being appointed as the new leader of the far left Liberal Party in last week's elections that were shut down to eligible members. Trudeau announced that he would vacate his position in January 10 years after his popularity plummeted among the general public, in response to loud pressure from within his party, as his popularity plummeted among the general public, and in response to the great pressure from within his party, as a result of the surge in his rule, the immigration crisis, economic decline, the erosion of civil liberties, and the rise of murders by doctors in his control, he announced he would vacate his position in January 10 years after power. The Liberals have dramatically improved their vote after Trudeau announced he would leave his political life for now.
Carney is expected to compete to remain the country's prime minister in a general election where Canadian legal obligations must be held by the end of October. His top rival is Pierre Poilierble, head of the Conservative Party.Like Justin“Trudeau and Carney accused them of suffering from various financial conflicts that hinder his ability to negotiate tariffs with US President Donald Trump.
In Ukraine, Carney never left Trudeau's policy. Canada has voiced support for Ukraine invasions of Russia, officially launched in February 2022, but has been vocal in support of the Russian territorial invasion, which has been in over a decade since Russian robber Vladimir Putin conquered the Crimean Peninsula in 2014.
According to Zelensky, along with photos showing him making extensive statements about the phone and talking to Carney, the two enjoyed a “good substantive” conversation with a long-term confidence in Canadian support for his country.
“The Prime Minister gave the right points on how the pressure needs to be increased on Moscow: the Shadow Fleet of the Banking Sector,” Zelensky wrote. “We must impose full sanctions on everything that provides Russia with funding its war, and only then can we enforce Putin in a fair and lasting peace.”
Zelensky also showed that Canada is interested in investing in the reconstruction of postwar Ukraine and investing in joint defense contracts to produce weapons.
“Canada is interested in military industry and defence cooperation,” Zelensky said. “Through this war, we have gained considerable experience in the production of EW systems, long-range missiles and drones. Ukraine is ready for joint production.”
Carney has published a shorter message, confirming their conversation and adding that Zelensky had the opportunity to discuss “a global effort to advance peace.” The biggest and most viewed efforts to advance peace at this point are led by Trump, who will speak in person with Putin on Tuesday. However, Carney did not mention the United States in his remarks regarding his call with Zelensky. He also omitted any mention of support for “full sanctions” against Russia.
Zelensky and Carney spoke just before the latter set out for his first international trip, since becoming European prime ministers. Carney is in France at the time of pressing and expects to visit the UK before returning home. Paris, Carney distance He himself comes from his continent, describing Canada as “the most European of non-European countries,” and seeks more robust trade between Ottawa and Paris.
“I want to ensure that together with you and the President, France and the whole of Europe will work hard with Canada, as you do, as determined to maintain the most positive and possible relationship with the United States,” Carney said. I said In front of the reporter.
French President Emmanuel Macron warmly welcomed Carney, declared his support for free trade, subtly denounced President Trump's push for tariffs, and argued that the lack of tariffs would make trade “more efficient.”
“I believe fair trade, which respects international rules, is good for everyone's prosperity and is far more effective than tariffs that simply create inflation and destroy the integration of the economy and supply chain,” Macron calls Canada a “unique friend.”
The meeting with Macron is the first face-to-face exchange with Carney's other government chief since he inherited Prime Minister. His performance during a short tour of Europe is one of the high interests as Kearney entered the top office of the Canadian government, where he had no previous political experience and was not selected for any office. Carney has been involved in finance for most of his career, leading both the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England.
Like Carney, Trudeau has given Ukraine priority as his foreign policy partner. Trudeau administration granted Aid to Ukraine was $13.5 billion, treating the Ukrainian War as Canada's biggest problem. One of Trudeau's final international trips as prime minister was in Kiev, where he reaffirmed the government's commitment to supporting Zelensky.
Trudeau's support for Ukraine reached the embarrassing incident in 2023, with Trudeau and Zelensky giving the Soviet Union a standing ovation in the Canadian parliament to the Yaroslavian soldier, a Ukrainian soldier who worked in the Nazi German division of Ukrainian volunteers.
