War in Ukraine, one year later | Legault asks Quebecers to show solidarity with Ukrainians

(Quebec) Quebec can provide “all kinds of aid” to Ukrainians.


This is what Prime Minister François Legault said on Thursday, on this first anniversary of the Russian invasion in this country.

Indeed, a year ago, Vladimir Putin’s troops engaged in what was supposed to be a blitzkrieg to overthrow the Ukrainian government of Volodimir Zelensky, but what basically became a war of attrition.

Thursday morning, Mr. Legault met Ukrainians whom Quebec has welcomed as refugees, in particular the family of the girl who was fatally caught last December in Montreal.

During a short press scrum before going to question period, the Prime Minister asked Quebecers to show solidarity with Ukrainians.

Called to elaborate on what more Quebec could do to help Ukraine, he said that we could provide all kinds of aid, without specifying what exactly.
