At the three-day NATO summit in Madrid, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and officials are expected to outline Canada’s drive to launch DIANA as well as NATO’s Climate Change and Security Centre of Excellence
Canada will play key roles in honing NATO’s innovation edge and developing its response to climate change.
NATO announced the formation of DIANA in April, but gave scant details of the effort and said only that “Canada is actively looking at hosting the North American regional office.” The alliance has already decided that the U.K. and Estonia will jointly host DIANA’s European office. “Working with the private sector and academia, allies will ensure that we can harness the best of new technology for transatlantic security,” Mr. Stoltenberg said in April.
Neither Canadian officials at the NATO mission in Brussels nor Canada’s Defence Minister could be reached for comment on Tuesday. Canada, through the Department of National Defence and Global Affairs Canada, had lobbied NATO to establish the Climate Change and Security Centre of Excellence for some time. NATO approved the concept, which Mr. Trudeau unveiled at the 2021 NATO summit, last month.
