Have the Canadians apologized yet for theit Building standing in the way?
Can this trigger an article 5 action?
Sure lol
Nope.
Article 5 only applies to Europe and North America
I realise that this joke was a bit rough but now that we’ re talking, isn’t Canada a part of North America? And embassies are extensions of the countries they represent?
Article 5 inly applies to actuons that happen in member country’s home soil or military bases in North America or Europe. So if Singapore decided to blast the USS Gerald R Ford while it transisted the Straits of Malaca, Article 5 could not be invoked. It gets a bit fuzzy with the Middle East though
Canadian embassy ceased operations in 2012 as Syrian civil war worsened
So probably no.
Damn… should have read the article and not only the title! What a clickbait!
If we follow Trudeau’s trend as of late, he is likely to blame this on Russia. He seems to blame external and internal threats and simple fuck ups of his administration all on Russia. He would blame China but he is currently embroiled in an ineptitude scandal where China helpep manipulate elections, seemingly mostly in his party’s favour. Despite the point of it was to seemingly vote CCP friendly MP’s from differents parties, details ate skerchy. Investigations on it contiue, but the Liberals are stalling, for exact cause unknown.
Point is that it would be good if he stated that Israel doing this is not alright at all, but he won’t. Even if an activation of Article 5 was never on the table. Which is understandable.
