CNN: Canadian Defense Ministry may send additional military to Europe


“Canada is capable of sending a company of soldiers to the region - this is just over 150 people, as well as staff staff,” the channel reports citing its source.

CNN notes that "currently there are about 200 Canadian military personnel in Poland who conduct exercises together with Polish, American and Turkish colleagues."

Wider participation of Canadian troops in NATO-planned events was discussed on June 14 at a meeting of defense ministers of the member countries.

“We are very grateful for the contribution of Canada, which it has already made, but would have welcomed even more (Canadian soldiers),” said NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg.

He noted that “in addition to infantrymen of the Ministry of Defense of Canada,“ they sent several CF-18 fighter jets to the command of NATO in the Baltic region, and one of the Canadian frigates is involved in patrolling the waters of the Mediterranean and Baltic seas ”.

The alliance recently approved the deployment of 4-x multinational battalions in the Baltic countries and Poland.

      "Canada is able to send a company of soldiers to the region - just over 150 people, as well as staff personnel." How much is the staff staff? If we take the classic formula "for one slave - three foremen", then it turns out quite well.

      Canada:). Well done. Just they have national interests preserved. Therefore, the strength to send as much company plus staff.

      Because they have nothing to do there. And for the hegemon, and so will be enough. And the face was preserved by national interests under the Canadians.

    Canada by forces send a company of soldiers to the region

    Well, if Canada is able to send a company to Europe, then we can assume that everything is in NATO in a bunch.
    We are very grateful for the contribution of Canada ...

    As I understand it, Canada’s main contribution was anti-Russian rhetoric and support for sanctions against our country. Can someone tell me about the military successes of the Canadian Armed Forces in the field of the fight against international terrorism?

    It was always touching how the unfinished Bandera supporters who had settled in Canada adore "native Ukraine" to the point of madness. True, adoration with insanity passes sharply, after the proposal to change a cozy house in the suburbs of Ottawa for a one-room apartment in Kiev.
