The Secretary-General of NATO, Jens Stoltenberg, will be holding a news conference in Brussels, Belgium on Tuesday ahead of an extraordinary meeting of NATO defence ministers taking place on Wednesday.

A new poll suggests nearly three-quarters of Canadians believe NATO allies should prepare for military intervention as Russian aggression escalates in Ukraine, even as half hold out hope for a diplomatic resolution.

The online survey of 1,515 Canadians and 1,002 Americans was conducted by Leger between Friday and Sunday.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization has signalled its solidarity with Ukraine in the form of supplies, weapons, and sanctions since the early days of Russia’s latest incursion into its territory, but has not deployed troops for combat.

“This is the first time where people say, ‘Give diplomacy and sanctions a chance but brace for potentially this becoming military involvement,”’ said Leger executive vice-president Christian Bourque.
