Speaking on Monday, Mr Trudeau also suggested that Russia would use the appearance to push a false narrative on Ukraine.
Putin has tried justifying the war in Ukraine by saying he is fighting nazis. The optics of Canada’s parliament applauding a Ukrainian with ties to Nazis is that it adds fuel to Putin’s narrative. Trudeau did not blame Russian propaganda for causing the incident. Trudeau was saying to push back on Russian propaganda if Putin uses this incident to further those claims.
Oh shit. Maybe Donald Trump is the next messiah.
