Canadian Armed Forces to enhance engagement with Indo-Pacific, Trudeau says

BANGKOK — The Liberal government's long-promised Indo-Pacific strategy will include new investments to strengthen the role the Canadian Armed Forces plays in the region, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced Friday in Thailand.

"This will support our allies, Japan and South Korea, and all of us in the Pacific," Trudeau said Friday as he wrapped up his participation in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum.

The gathering had been sidetracked by the news that North Korea had launched a ballistic missile that landed near Japanese waters.

"This is completely unacceptable, and must not continue," Trudeau told reporters at a news conference in Bangkok.
