OTTAWA — The Canadian and American embassies in Ukraine were closed to the public on Wednesday after the U.S. warned of a"potential significant air attack" in Kyiv by Russia.
In a media release later on Wednesday, the embassy said it had modified operations and was open and operational. U.S. President Joe Biden gave the green light for Kyiv to strike Russian targets and to use antipersonnel landmines, as part of a larger effort to bolster Ukraine's defences before Donald Trump takes over the White House in January.
"I have, for months now, talked about how important it is to degrade the capacity of the Russian military to strike into Ukraine with impunity because Ukraine hasn't been able to strike on factories and military production sites in Russia," he said at a press conference in Rio de Janeiro on Tuesday. "All state parties must take a firm stand. We cannot remain silent," Axworthy said in the statement, which included comments by Anne Delorme, executive director of Humanity and Inclusion Canada.
