Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is meeting with his fellow NATO leaders at a special summit aimed at finding a path toward ending the fighting in Ukraine.
Russia's invasion of Ukraine one month ago has left Europe facing its biggest security threat since the Second World War, and, Trudeau argued yesterday, a larger threat to the globe.
Arriving at the alliance's glassed-in headquarters Thursday morning, Trudeau condemned what he calls the "illegal, brutal invasion of a friendly democracy."
He says NATO is united in its condemnation of Russian President Vladimir Putin, and equally in its support for Ukrainians who, he says, are fighting for the values that underpin democracies.
Canada and its allies are expected to unveil later today a new round of economic sanctions against allies of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is also scheduled to address NATO leaders after having spoken directly with Trudeau earlier this week.
