Canada will increase the number of instructors training Ukrainian policemen, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said.

Twenty-two police officers are training local policemen and developing an effective program to train competent police forces, Trudeau said during the joint briefing with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko in Kyiv on Monday.

He also noted that representatives of Canada are included in the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) Special Monitoring Mission and that Canada also provides humanitarian aid to the victims of the Donbas conflict.

Canada took on obligations to provide $700 bln starting from 2014, he added.
