EVIAN-LES-BAINS -- Canada will impose new sanctions on Russia in a package that will target 162 people, entities and vessels -- all assets of the Russian war machine.

Prime Minister Mark Carney made the announcement during a meeting at the G7 summit with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

“We’re working more closely on production of drones together and we’ll discuss the next stage of that,” Carney said.

Zelenskyy thanked Canada for its support and said the working session on Ukraine was “great.” He said the leaders supported Ukraine’s request for more Patriot missiles and discussed how to increase production.

Patriot missiles are able to counter Russian ballistic missile attacks on Ukraine’s cities and power grid.

“Our partners supported our messages, what we really need -- energy package … air defence, more Patriot missiles,” he said. “Russia is not winning and we have to push (Russian President Vladimir Putin) to end this war.”

A readout from the Prime Minister’s Office said during his meeting with Zelenskyy, Carney strongly condemned Russia’s latest attack on Kyiv, including the strike on the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra monastery.

Canada’s Ambassador to France Nathalie Drouin told reporters Tuesday the session on Ukraine was “very positive.” She said the leaders recognized the progress Ukraine is making and the need to continue supporting the country.

She said the U.S. still stands behind Ukraine and wants a deal for Ukraine that is also acceptable for Russia.

Canada provided $2.8 billion in military assistance to Ukraine in 2026 and imposed sanctions on more than 3,400 individuals and entities and 600 vessels.

Carney announced last month Canada will contribute another $270 million to help Ukraine secure critical military capabilities.

Carney’s meeting with Zelenskyy is one of at least five bilateral meetings he is holding on the margins of the G7 summit.

The first full day of the 2026 leaders’ summit will also include discussions about conflicts in the Middle East and the pullback in foreign aid funding that is forcing the world to rethink how it handles international development.
