Global News published this video item, entitled “Canada’s defence minister announces Armed Forces training for Ukrainian troops | LIVE” – below is their description.
Canadian Defence Minister Anita Anand is expected to announce on Thursday that the Canadian Armed Forces will start training Ukrainian soldiers in a third country.
The move comes nearly six months after Canada suspended its previous training mission in Ukraine, just weeks before Russian forces invaded the country.
A senior government official told The Canadian Press the new mission will include a significant number of troops and build on the military assistance that Canada has already given to Ukraine.
That includes training Ukrainian forces on how to use the four M777 howitzers that Canada donated earlier this year, as well as cyber assistance through Canada’s electronic spy agency, the Communications Security Establishment.
