DND official lambasts western leaders for anti-U.S. comments

A top Canadian defence department official has admonished western leaders for pushing back against Trump administration policies and raising concerns the U.S. is abandoning its allies.

Raquel Garbers, the chief architect of Canada’s new defence policy, accused western leaders of helping Russia and China with their “absurd anti-United States narratives.”

“To suggest that the U.S. can’t be trusted as an ally because it is ‘mistreating its friends’ is to indulge in the fantastical view that states privilege sentimentality over national interest,” she wrote in an opinion piece in the Oct. 15 issue of the Hill Times, a newspaper aimed at Canadian parliamentarians.
