Canada is not excluding the possibility of sending troops to Ukraine in the event it reaches a ceasefire with Russia, a senior Canadian government official said ahead of Independence Day celebrations in Kyiv where Prime Minister Mark Carney was to be recognized as the guest of honour on Sunday.
“We are not excluding boots on the ground,” the official told reporters during a secure background briefing ahead of the prime minister’s trip. For security reasons, details of the trip were not allowed to be released until Carney arrived in Ukraine.
The official said discussions by the “Coalition of the Willing” — the group of 30 countries
looking to support a path forward for Ukraine in the war with Russia — about what future security guarantees for Ukraine could look like in the event of a ceasefire are ongoing, but their “form … has yet to be determined.”
U.S. President Donald Trump has said his country will not send troops to Ukraine as part of a security guarantee.
