Trudeau considers “regrettable” the tribute paid by the Canadian Parliament to a Ukrainian who fought alongside the Nazis
The Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, considered “regrettable” and “shameful” the tribute that the Parliament of Canada paid last Friday to the Ukrainian Yaroslav Hunka, who fought alongside Nazi Germany during the Second World War.
“It’s very regrettable that this happened. The Speaker of Parliament acknowledged his mistake and apologized,” Trudeau said. But this is something that deeply embarrasses the Parliament of Canada and, by extension, all Canadians,” Trudeau told media at Parliament, according to CBC.
For his part, the spokesperson for the UN Secretary General, Stéphane Dujarric, declared that he was against “any tribute to people who actively participated in Nazi activities during the Second World War.”
Faced with the controversy, the President of the Canadian House of Representatives, Anthony Rota, apologized this Monday for the ovation given by the deputies to Hunka, whom he even described as a “hero” and thanked “for all his services”. past linked to Nazi Germany.
