Canada announces $4.3-billion in new support for Ukraine and sanctions on Russia’s ‘shadow fleet’
- At the G7 summit in Alberta on June 17, 2025, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney unveiled a $4.3 billion aid package for Ukraine, including military support and infrastructure loans, alongside new sanctions targeting Russia’s covert fleet of vessels.
- This announcement responded to Russia's ongoing fourth year of war in Ukraine and recent deadly missile and drone attacks on Kyiv that killed 15 people overnight.
- The aid package includes $2 billion in military aid for drones, ammunition, and armored vehicles, alongside a $2.3 billion loan to rebuild Ukraine's war-damaged infrastructure and sanctions targeting 200 vessels evading trade restrictions.
- Carney stated the importance of maximum pressure on Russia and condemned its barbarism, while Ukrainian President Zelensky thanked him for the support and new sanctions during a bilateral meeting.
- The measures underscore Canada's continued strong alliance with Ukraine and follow prior G7 and EU efforts that have cut nearly 80% of Russian oil and gas revenues since February 2022.
