As a founding member of @NATO, Canada continues to lead within the Alliance. We've achieved NATO’s 2% GDP defence spending target. We're scaling up investments in Arctic security and defending NATO’s northwestern flank. And we’re on track to reach 5% by 2035. #WeAreNATO

#Russia claims it is "cooperating" to reunite Ukrainian families. Facts tell a different story: returns are rare and driven by Ukraine, international partners and civil society while Russia obstructs their work. #BringKidsBack More facts countering lies: international.gc.ca/world-monde/is…

#Russia hides behind claims that there is no complete list of deported Ukrainian children. Meanwhile, Russia limits access to records and prevents verification in temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine. #BringKidsBack More facts countering lies: international.gc.ca/world-monde/is…

#Russia falsely claims #Ukraine is exaggerating the number of deported children. The evidence says otherwise. Multiple independent sources confirm these cases are widespread, systematic and verified. #BringKidsBack More facts countering lies: international.gc.ca/world-monde/is…

Russia says it’s rehoming Ukrainian “orphans.” Also Russia: –Transfers children without tracing families –Withholds records needed to find them –Labels them “orphans” to enable illegal adoptions A child is not an orphan just because you erased their history. #BringKidsBack

May 4th marks Dodenherdenking, The Netherlands's Day of Remembrance, honouring civilians and service members who died in WWII. Canadians are invited to attend local ceremonies or visit a Canadian War Cemetery to reflect on our shared service and sacrifice. #CanadaRemembers

In 1986, the world’s most severe nuclear accident happened in Chornobyl. 40 years on, our thoughts are with the people who have suffered its consequences for decades. Chornobyl showed the world that nuclear safety is everyone’s concern. Canada will not forget.

Russia says #Ukraine’s figures on deported children are unreliable. Also Russia: – Continues illegal deportations and forced transfers – Russifies identities and records – Limits access to data The numbers change because Russia is still taking Ukrainian children. #BringKidsBack

Russia claims Ukrainian parents “voluntarily” sent their children to Russian camps. Also Russia: -Obtains “consent” under occupation and war -Keeps children after short-term programs end Consent to a summer camp does not equal consent to giving away your child. #BringKidsBack

Indigenous soldiers made vital contributions to the liberation of the Netherlands. Yesterday, @bmzeeland opened the Indigenous Liberators exhibition, which tells these important stories. Check out tinyurl.com/3cwrmj3w to learn more.

Russia calls it a “temporary evacuation” of Ukrainian children for their safety. Also Russia: –Sends Ukrainian children to re-education camps -Imposes Russian citizenship -Facilitates illegal adoptions This is not temporary. It is unlawful. #BringKidsBack

Over the last few weeks, we’ve shown how AI-generated visuals can mislead. Meet the cast: a unicorn, a nurse, a reporter and a girl. All AI-generated. All created in seconds. Before reacting, pause, check the source and #ThinkBeforeYouShare

Russia: We'll help reunite Ukrainian children with their families if we receive “verified lists”. Also Russia: -Unlawfully deports & forcibly transfers children -Changes identities -Imposes citizenship -Enables illegal adoptions -Limits access to the records needed to find them

AI-generated photos and videos often trigger shock, fear, or outrage, pushing you to react immediately. If what you see online makes you feel an intense emotion, pause, check the source and #ThinkBeforeYouShare

The trust Canada has built through #OpREASSURANCE opens doors. Allies who trust us are more willing to listen to Canada's voice, value our input and work with us as a trusted partner. #WeAreNATO

Russia uses shadow fleet vessels to bypass sanctions restrictions and transport sanctioned goods and commodities, including Russian oil. The profits help fund Russia’s war machine. That’s why Canada is sanctioning 100 more of these vessels. Learn more: canada.ca/en/global-affa…
