The Canadian Forces confirmed it is not taking part in NATO discussions underway to try to deal with the potential issue of arms smuggling from Ukraine.

There are growing concerns that some of the weapons sent to Ukraine have been or will be diverted to the black market. NATO nations have donated billions of dollars of arms and military equipment to Ukraine since Russia invaded that country on Feb. 24.

On July 12, the Financial Times reported that a number of NATO member states are discussing with Ukraine’s government the development of some form of tracking system or detailed inventory lists for weapons supplied to the country. Officials noted that once weapons are shipped into Ukraine, NATO loses track of what they are used for or even if they remain in the country.

Canadian taxpayers have financed the donation of $500 million worth of weapons and other military equipment to Ukraine. That included anti-tank systems, .50-calibre sniper rifles equipped with silencers, 60-millimetre mortars, grenade launchers, pistols, C6 and C9 machine-guns, thermal-imaging binoculars, cameras, scopes and medical supplies. Donations also included ammunition, drone cameras and armoured vehicles.

“We have been assured that our military aid is reaching Ukrainian soldiers,” Anand told journalists at a July 7 news conference.

CRAZY

Wow what a surprise

Well, of course not. You didn't think these Liberals were suddenly going to become marginally competent all of a sudden, did you

Just as there's no way to track the kick backs going into politicians pockets!

Here's a shocker for you, Its not a 'concern' it's been happening since may, videos all over, surrendering and unscrupulous Ukrainians are handing weapons to Russians who send them back to Russia to be reverse engineered and copied, advantages they provided are now non existent.

Of course they don't. You can't money launder properly if there's a paper trail.

Name the war you could trace arms 🤡 🤡

Do you think Canada has anyway of tracking money sent to a historically known money laundering country? Nothing is as it seems … to borrow a line from the matrix.

Wouldn't be ironic if those weapons made their way back to Canada illegally and used in crimes. Don't think it can't happen.

All weapons end up on the black market. Do that story CBCNews. The U.S. literally walked away from billions in Iraq, Afghanistan. War is when money is thrown into the abyss.

Idiocy

Now your concerned 🤣🎬🤡 DefundCanadianMedia

Free Tamara

Neither does any other country.

🤦‍♀️

Thats actually funny.

Basically saying Ukraine is corrupt - zero dollars should be sent

I know a guy in Odessa that can help but you gotta help him get some packages to Syria and Libya first

The liberal/ndp comedy team continues to astound us! Bravo!

Black market isnt interested in the crap we sent. Maybe Kijiji

Canada has no way to track all of the money being sent to Ukraine either. Sounds like a great way to money launder.

See now that's funny 😁 😂

Trudeau's brilliance continues to shine.

Or in the hands if Nazis?

Yeah 'Could' Not a bug, it's a feature

“Could” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The most corrupt , money laundering, sex trafficking country in Europe .

Now do “foreign aid”.

Like this?

Lets admit it, we just let Trudeau take our weapons away from us which leaves us vulnerable. History repeats itself they did it to the native people in exchange for food and shelter. In 2022 we have been tricked in believing it was for a good cause- not to equipe Nazi groups.

History repeats

Wow. Shocker. Who could’ve seen that coming ? 🤣

Who knew?

No worries. Ukraine was only 4th on the list for the most corrupt county on Earth.

It's ok the biden crime family helping with corrupt distribution.

The chance you take.

Where have we seen this before… 🤔
