<\/a>\u201cThe Canadian government is closely following Iran-related hostilities throughout the Middle East and urges all Canadians in Iran to shelter in place. Canadians in the wider region should follow local advice and take all necessary precautions.<\/p>\nCanada\u2019s position remains clear: the Islamic Republic of Iran is the principal source of instability and terror throughout the Middle East, has one of the world\u2019s worst human rights records, and must never be allowed to obtain or develop nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n
Canada and our international partners have consistently called upon the Iranian regime to end its nuclear program, including at the 2025 G7 Leaders\u2019 Summit in Kananaskis and with the United Nations\u2019 reimposition of sanctions in September.<\/p>\n
Despite diplomatic efforts, Iran has neither fully dismantled its nuclear program, halted all enrichment activities, nor ended its support for regional terrorist proxy groups. Canada stands with the Iranian people in their long and courageous struggle against Iran\u2019s oppressive regime. Canada has listed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist entity, and has sanctioned 256 Iranian entities and 222 individuals in response to the regime\u2019s repression and its violence both against its own people, and persistently, beyond its borders. Canada reaffirms Israel\u2019s right to defend itself and to ensure the security of its people.<\/p>\n
Canada supports the United States acting to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and to prevent its regime from further threatening international peace and security.<\/p>\n
The Canadian government urges the protection of all civilians in this conflict. We will take all possible measures to protect our nationals and Canadian diplomatic missions throughout the region.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
