Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly says Canada is prepared to send ships to help Ukraine export its wheat to the developing world.
Speaking after meetings with G7 and EU counterparts in Germany and Belgium, Joly said: “We are on this. We are in solution mode and it’s Canada’s contribution to making sure that we participate in this great mission of freeing the Ukrainian wheat.”
“They are trying to garner this false narrative,” Sajjan said in an interview. “Ukraine is a bread basket for the developing world.” Ukraine’s ambassador to Canada told MPs earlier this month that Russian troops have not only been blocking ports but raiding Ukrainian wheat stores and destroying farm machinery.
“The conflict in Ukraine is compounding what is already a year of unprecedented hunger, transforming a series of terrible hunger crises into a global food crisis,” said Marshall. Joly also said Canada plans to swiftly ratify the entry of Finland and Sweden to NATO, which could be done directly by the government. Even so, the minister said she has held talks with the Conservatives, Bloc Quebecois and NDP, which have indicated support.
