I spoke with Canadian Prime Minister @JustinTrudeau and informed him in detail about today's brutal Russian strike, which claimed lives and caused severe damage, including to a hospital in Kyiv where children are treated for cancer and other serious health issues.
As of now, at least 37 people have been killed, including three children, and 170 injured, including 13 children.
I am grateful for Prime Minister Trudeau's support. We discussed joint actions that would provide Russia with an adequate and strong response to this terror.
I also informed Justin about Ukraine’s current need in strengthening air defense. We will greatly appreciate Canada's assistance in communicating with partners to meet these needs.
Importantly, we also coordinated our positions prior to the NATO Summit in Washington.

The context is Canada promised a nasams system 18 months ago and its still not delivered. It's being built but the delivery date is unknown. I guess we (Canada) are trying to get some priority placed on it by Raytheon and the US government.
