Canada joins NATO countries in supporting Ukraine's membership bid, but timeline remains uncertain.

Canada has become the 20th country to declare support for Ukraine's NATO membership, with the joint declaration signed by President Volodymyr Zelensky and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau containing the firmest wording of support for the Euro-Atlantic aspirations of Ukrainians among the G7 nations. The declaration also publicly records support for the creation of the Ukraine-NATO Council, with Canada expressing readiness to continue work to seize and confiscate Russian assets and support international efforts to hold Russia accountable for the crime of aggression.
