Canada is interested in partaking in conversations about security guarantees for Ukraine, Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly said on Feb. 18.

“We want to be part of these conversations regarding security guarantees,” Joly told reporters in Brussels on Feb. 18.

“We want to be part of conversations linked to more Canadians being involved in protecting Ukraine.”

Joly’s comments come a day before Canada is set to join European countries for a high-level summit in Paris, where leaders will discuss security options for Ukraine. The summit comes on the heels of a Feb. 18 meeting between U.S. and Russian delegations in Saudi Arabia that did not include Ukraine.

      Why do Americans always think everything is about them? Just because you hear about Canada in 2 different contexts at the same time doesn’t mean they’re related. Get over yourself.
