加拿大驻乌克兰大使娜塔尔卡·科莫克在接受乌克兰通讯社采访时表示,在北极地区地缘政治紧张局势日益加剧的背景下,加拿大正在研究可能有助于确保该地区安全的乌克兰技术。
大使说,“我认为,乌克兰正在开发的一些技术对加拿大北极地区以及保护加拿大北极地区乃至所有人的北极地区都将非常有用。”
在她看来,这些技术包括水下和水面无人艇。
大使强调,从安全角度来看,北极是加拿大的优先事项。科莫克回顾了北极理事会的工作,并表示北欧国家正在积极合作维护北极安全。
大使指出,“而且,从环境角度来看,我们也理解北极需要得到保护。不健康的北极也会影响全球环境。”
据乌克兰通讯社报道,加拿大寻求今年夏天正式加入欧盟的“欧洲重新武装”计划。加拿大总理马克·卡尼表示,目前加拿大75%的国防资本支出都流向了美国。他认为,这样做并不明智,最好增加国内支出,发展多元化的伙伴关系。
Amid growing geopolitical tensions around the Arctic, Canada is studying Ukrainian technologies that could be useful for ensuring the security in the region.
This was stated by the Ambassador of Canada to Ukraine, Natalka Cmoc, who spoke in an interview with Ukrinform.
“Some of the technologies that Ukraine is developing, I think, will be very useful in terms of the Canadian Arctic and protecting the Canadian Arctic or everyone’s Arctic,” the ambassador said.
In her opinion, this includes underwater and surface drones.
The ambassador emphasized that the Arctic is a priority for Canada from a security perspective. The Nordic nations are actively cooperating to maintain such security, Cmoc said, recalling the work of the Arctic Council.
“And also we understand from an environmental perspective that it needs to be protected. An unhealthy Arctic will impact global environment as well,” the ambassador noted.
As Ukrinform reported, Canada seeks to officially join the European Union’s ReArm Europe program this summer. According to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, currently 75% of Canada’s capital expenditures on defense goes toward the United States. In his opinion, this is not wise as it is better to spend more at home and develop diversified partnerships.
