Zelenskyy rages against Trudeau

Zelenskyy rages against Trudeau

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is very angry with Justin Trudeau, who he once said inspired him to take up politics.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs had to summon Canada’s representative to our country due to an absolutely unacceptable exception to the sanctions regime against Russia,” Zelenskyy began, speaking in front of a greenscreen to make it appear like he’s on the streets of Kyiv.

“It’s not just about some Nord Stream turbine,” he continued, “that Canada shouldn’t have but decided to hand over — hand over actually to Russia. This is about common rules. If a terrorist state can squeeze out such an exception to sanctions, what exceptions will it want tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?”

Despite his claim, the decision he’s talking about is to return natural gas turbines to Germany, which is currently in the midst of an energy crisis after being cut off from Russian oil due to the sanctions they imposed on Ukraine’s behalf.

The plight of his allies doesn’t seem to matter to Zelenskyy, however, and he continues his tirade against Canada.

“The decision on the exception to sanctions will be perceived in Moscow exclusively as a manifestation of weakness,” Zelenskyy continued. “This is their logic. And now, there can be no doubt that Russia will try not just to limit as much as possible, but to completely shut down the supply of gas to Europe at the most acute moment.”

Apparently, Zelenskyy has short-term memory loss or simply doesn’t appreciate allies who are currently funding his war effort, as his statements come two weeks after Trudeau announced that he would send Ukraine an additional $350 million on top of the $1 billion loan he gave them earlier in the year.

Weapons have also been sent, and it’s all been to the detriment of Canada, which now has a military so depleted that Canada’s former Defence Minister is worried the country can’t defend itself anymore.

Indeed, in March, the current Defence Minister Anita Anand announced to the entire world that the Trudeau government had depleted the military’s stock of weapons in its rush to assist Ukraine.

“We have exhausted inventory from the Canadian Armed Forces,” Anand said nervously. “There are capacity issues,” she added.

Of course, Trudeau was glad to do so and has continued this trend of leaving Canada defenceless, saying the best thing Canada can do with its weapons is to just give them to Ukraine — which Ukraine’s been happy to accept.

“Stocks for the Canadian military will be replenished as quickly as possible,” Trudeau said while speaking at the NATO leaders summit in Madrid. “We need to make sure that the women and men of the Canadian Forces have the equipment they need to continue their mission and step up as necessary.”

“We also recognize that the best use, right now, of things like howitzers and sniper rifles and all of the other equipment we’ve been sending to Ukraine — the best use for Canadian security, for geopolitical stability — is to put them in the hands of Ukrainians.”

All of this isn’t good enough for President and former comedian Volodymyr Zelenskyy, though, who is currently losing the war.
