Lawyers Demand Justice After Quebec Teen’s Death

Lawyers representing the family of Nooran Rezayi , a 15-year-old boy fatally shot by police in Longueuil, Quebec, are calling for accountability after allegations of interference in the investigation. Rezayi was killed on September 21, 2025 , in a suburban neighborhood south of Montreal. Quebec’s police watchdog (BEI) has accused local officers of questioning witnesses and attempting to obtain video footage , actions that could compromise the independence of the probe.

Russia's Role in Stalling Peace Efforts in Ukraine

European foreign ministers convened at a NATO meeting in Brussels, collectively accusing Russia of obstructing U.S.-led peace initiatives aimed at resolving the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The ministers urged the Trump administration to adopt a firmer stance against Moscow, citing concerns over Russian President Vladimir Putin's commitment to peace.

Despite U.S. President Donald Trump's promise to bring a swift end to the three-year war, recent developments have cast doubt on Putin's intentions. Moscow rejected a U.S. proposal for a 30-day ceasefire in March, even as Ukraine expressed willingness to cooperate. Instead, the warring sides agreed to a limited pause in attacks on energy infrastructure, which both parties accused each other of violating.

British Foreign Minister David Lammy criticized Putin for "dragging his feet" and continuing to bombard Ukraine's civilian population and energy supplies. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock described Putin's negotiation efforts as "empty promises," while French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot called for a definitive response from Moscow to the ceasefire proposal.

Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly suggested imposing a deadline for Russia to respond, emphasizing the urgency of the situation. The ministers' collective stance reflects growing frustration with Russia's perceived lack of commitment to peace and a call for stronger international pressure.
