YEREVAN — Prime Minister Mark Carney says his government will contribute $270 million to help Ukraine secure critical military capabilities in its defence against Russia’s full-scale invasion.
Carney made the announcement in Armenia today, where he addressed world leaders at the European Political Community summit, a gathering focused on strategic co-operation in politics, security and infrastructure.
The money will go toward purchasing items from a NATO list, and brings Canada’s total monetary support for Ukraine up to $25.8 billion.
Carney met Sunday with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, and thanked him for the invitation to attend the summit at a “crucial time” for Europe and European values.
