Prime Minister Justin Trudeau delivers remarks during a press conference in the facilities of vaccine producer Sanofi, in Toronto on Thursday, May 30, 2024. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Arlyn McAdoreyPrime Minister Justin Trudeau supports France's decision to invite Russian officials to a D-Day commemoration, despite "extreme disagreement" with Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"But that does not preclude our extreme disagreement with the endangering of people around the world, and indeed of the rules-based order that the current Russian regime is involved in." "If lines on a map can be redrawn by a neighbour with a larger army, then the period of stability that we have known since the end of World War Two would come to an end, and the prosperity and opportunity available — not just to people in Western democracies, but all around the world — would be at risk," he told a Thursday news conference.
French President Emmanuel Macron says Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will attend the ceremonies as will Trudeau and U.S. President Joe Biden.
