Instructors from Canadian Forces will continue training the Ukrainian military men from the Ukraine's Armed Forces until the end of 2017, Deputy Defense Minister of Ukraine Ihor Dolhov has said.

"Canadian instructors will continue training the Ukrainian military men until the end of 2017," Dolhov told reporters on Yavoriv training area (Lviv region) during the visit of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to an army training complex on Tuesday.

According to the minister, the agreement was reached during negotiations between Trudeau with the Ukrainian authorities in Kiyv.

Among other things Dolhov said that in addition to already existing training program Canadian instructors will train Ukrainian sergeants and intelligence unit. Ukrainian officers will be sent to study at Canadian military schools.

Assistance in the development of military field medicine is another area of support to the Ukrainian Armed Forces by the Canadian side.

Shortly before President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko asked the prime minister of Canada to extend the term of stay to Canadian military instructors that train Ukrainian military men.

Poroshenko at a joint with Trudeau press conference in Kyiv on July 11 recalled that the Canadian soldiers train Ukrainian military men on the Yavoriv training ground.

We've made a deal today that our cooperation program will be surely prolonged as Canada provides assistance in creating a new, modern professional Ukrainian army," Poroshenko said at a joint briefing with the prime minister of Canada on Monday.

"We emphasize that Canadian military instructors should stay in Ukraine until March 2017, as I asked the prime minister to extend this mission," Poroshenko said.

On July 12 Trudeau visited Yavoriv training area in the Lviv region, where about 200 instructors of the Canadian Forces are training Ukrainian military servicemen.
