Ukraine Marks Somber Anniversary as Zelenskyy Vows Resolve Amid Fractured Allied Support

Ukrainians pay tribute to victims of the Russian invasion, on the day marking the fourth anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion. As Ukraine enters another year of full‑scale war, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy used the anniversary to deliver a message of defiance and endurance. Speaking to the nation, he emphasized that Ukraine’s determination to resist Russia has not weakened, even as the conflict grinds on with no clear end in sight.

Canada Faces Economic Crossroads Amid Trump's Tariff Escalation

 






Canada is bracing for a new wave of tariffs from U.S. President Donald Trump, set to take effect on April 2. These tariffs, described as "reciprocal," aim to match the levies imposed by trading partners on U.S. goods. Prime Minister Mark Carney has urged Canadians to prepare for the worst, emphasizing the need for retaliatory measures that minimize domestic impact while targeting U.S. vulnerabilities.

The tariffs could have sweeping consequences for Canada's economy, particularly in industries like automotive and steel. Carney has outlined plans to bolster worker protection programs and reduce interprovincial trade barriers to mitigate the fallout. Meanwhile, opposition leaders have criticized the government's handling of the situation, calling for stronger economic strategies.

As Canada navigates this challenging period, the focus remains on safeguarding jobs and maintaining economic stability. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining the nation's resilience against these trade tensions.
