Ambassador of Canada: Occupation of Crimea is step towards world security destabilization

The Euro-Atlantic security is a top priority for Canada and the occupation and illegal annexation of Crimea is a step towards destabilization of the world security system.

Ambassador of Canada to Ukraine Roman Waschuk said this at the international forum "Crimea under occupation: Consequences for Ukraine and the world", an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"We all feel the seismic tremors of this aggressive encroachment on the territory of Ukraine... This creates pressure, certain stress in the international system and hidden fear," the Ambassador said.

That is why, he said, Canada supports Ukraine and its territorial integrity on all international platforms.

As reported, February 25-26, Kyiv hosts the international forum "Crimea under occupation: Consequences for Ukraine and the world."

February 26, Ukraine will mark the Day of Resistance to Occupation of Crimea.
