Zelenskyy extends an invitation to Trudeau for a visit to Ukraine
Zelenskyy Extends Invite to Carney for Ukraine Visit
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy extended an invite to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney during a phone conversation on April 30th. According to European Pravda, Zelenskyy congratulated Carney on the victory of his Liberal Party in the early parliamentary elections and discussed cooperation within the Group of Seven, currently chaired by Canada.
In the conversation, they discussed air defense for Ukraine, diplomacy, and communication with key partners. The focus was on maintaining strong sanctions against Russia and the need for continual enforcement to counter the ongoing war. Zelenskyy invited Carney to visit Kyiv, expressing confidence in Canada’s continued support for Ukraine and international law.
Following the call, Zelenskyy is also scheduled to visit southern Alberta in June for the G7 Summit hosted by Canada. While Carney has not yet publicly confirmed his acceptance of the invite, the conversation emphasized strengthened bilateral relations between the two nations.
Interestingly, the Liberal Party, under Carney's leadership, won the election but did not secure the majority needed to form a government on its own. The situation changed due to Justin Trudeau's resignation as the Liberal leader and mounting challenges facing the country, including US President Donald Trump's attack on Canada.
Zelenskyy presented gratitude for Canada’s leadership in defending international law and reiterated the need for a complete ceasefire as a precondition for negotiations with Russia. It remains to be seen if Carney accepts the invite and whether these discussions will lead to further strengthened ties between Ukraine and Canada in the months to come.
