South Africa\u0027s envoy to Ottawa urged the Trudeau government to drastically change course on its most central foreign\u002Dpolicy issue
Shaik insists South Africa’s motives are to defuse the conflict.
He argued this approach would bear more fruit than Ukraine and its Western allies refusing to undertake peace talks with Moscow until Russia returns all occupied territory. “That is insulting.

“The only thing that the bogeyman narrative does is create fear. And we must never forget that fear produces cruelty.” Ottawa has told developing countries that Russia is to blame for driving up living costs and distracting the global community from dealing with climate change. Canada’s ambassador to the UN, Bob Rae, often makes the case that not laying such blame will set a precedent for other countries to violate sovereignty.
