Canada rejects Russian demands to reduce NATO presence in Europe
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Europe and NATO, not Russia, will shape the continent’s security architecture, rejecting Moscow’s reported demand to return NATO’s military presence to 1997 levels. Estonia’s prime minister called the attempt to redraw Europe’s security system a psychological game, while EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas urged talks to focus first on a ceasefire and peace agreement.
