A day after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy strongly criticized Canada over its decision to allow a Canadian company to return turbines from a Russian pipeline that supplies natural gas to Germany, the Ukrainian World Congress says it plans to sue Canada over the decision.

    “This was a very difficult decision, but we have seen Russia consistently try to weaponize energy as a way of creating division among the allies, of undermining the general population’s support for this essential effort in Ukraine that governments support,” Trudeau told reporters in Kingston, Ont. Wednesday.

    But will that answer satisfy Ukranian leadership?

    1. Canada deserve a fierce rebuke for giving into the pressure and providing Russia with these turbines. Having said that Ukraine suing Canada is just going to create a situation where Canadian citizens will begin pushing back AGAINST the Ukraine support efforts.

      It was a terrible decision to give those turbines to Russia, it's also a terrible decision for Ukraine to hamper the support they are being provided by suing a Country whose general populace supports their efforts.

    2. Is this organization suing Canada for taxpayers money while it doesn’t affect the organization? Seems like a scam

    3. Give it a break about Canada giving in to turbines, It's not Russia that wants them it's the EU that needs them and btw they can instantly turn off Nord Steam anytime. You've all been played so how does it feel. There's an old saying from JR "The Inmates are running the asylum"

    4. Stop buying Russian gas!!! I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here but Russia is clearly the enemy and we're buying their good still!!!

    5. This is what you get for going out your way to aid a country that is being invaded by a superpower. This is what you get for putting yourself at risk against a superpower by implementing sanctions against them. Canadian-Ukrainians must be upset.

    6. Look after problems in Canada instead of dividing people over your creepy mandates! Destroying hundreds of thousands of small businesses is shameful! And stop poking the bear with your propaganda media!

    7. Ukraine should be careful. Remember when truckers where heroes to Trudeau during the pandemic but once they turned on him they became far right extremists. Trudeau, the little crybaby, can't handle any kind of criticism

    8. Huh? Didn't Zelensky just get $40 billion dollars from Brandon….errr, I mean Biden? Everyone knows that Zelensky pocketed a couple billion. The Ukraine government is just as corrupt as Trudeau and the Liberals…….just sucks that it's the people in both countries that are getting screwed.

    9. this is the crack in the dam that eventually leads to a total breakdown of the nato aliiance's sanctions against russia. some european nato countries can now justify buying russian oil and gas. trudeau's action will cost ukrainian lives. his mistakes are taking on epic proportions.

    10. Canada could not win here. Keep the turbine and be perceived as being responsible for Europe’s energy crisis or send it and now Ukraine wants to play politics and launch a lawsuit. It was a lose/lose for Canada. Putin wants to cut energy to Europe and now he can’t blame Canada anymore for that.

      Ukrainian lawmakers haven’t launched a lawsuit against their European partners who still pay Russia 80 million dollars a month for oil. I guess there’s a price after all for all the free military aid. You’d think they’d be too busy trying to prosecute war crimes than suing countries over a turbine.
