Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly will call on Israel in a speech on Monday to temper its heavy bombardment of Gaza and allow for pauses in the war to permit sustained humanitarian aid to reach beleaguered Palestinian civilians.
In a wide-ranging foreign-policy address to the Economic Club in Toronto, Ms. Joly will lament that the world is engulfed in a “major international security crisis” that stretches from China and the Indo-Pacific to the war in Ukraine and the violent conflict in the Middle East. A copy of the speech was provided in advance to The Globe and Mail.
