According to Reuters, on August 24 local time, Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau stated that Canada supports Ukraine's demand to include "strong security guarantees" in any peace agreement, and Canada does not rule out sending peacekeeping forces to Ukraine under this framework.

On the same day, Trudeau attended the Ukrainian Independence Day commemoration ceremony held in the center of Kyiv with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy. This was Trudeau's first visit to Ukraine since he became Prime Minister of Canada in March this year. U.S. Special Envoy for Ukraine Keglov also attended the ceremony.

Zelenskyy said at the ceremony: "We are all striving to ensure that the end of this conflict will mean peace guarantees for Ukraine, so that our future generations will no longer face the threat of war."

Zelenskyy had previously expressed hope that "future security guarantees" would be included in the peace agreement, and that this guarantee should be as close as possible to NATO's Article Five, which states that an attack on any NATO member state is considered an attack on all member states.

Trudeau expressed support for Ukraine's request to involve the international community in security guarantees. At a joint press conference, he said: "Canada believes it is unrealistic to rely solely on the strength of the Ukrainian armed forces as the only security guarantee... this force needs support and reinforcement."

Trudeau and Zelenskyy also signed a joint production agreement for drones. Trudeau also announced that, according to the previously announced aid plan, Ukraine will receive more than 1 billion Canadian dollars (about 5.18 billion Chinese yuan) in military aid next month.
