KYIV -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has pledged 25 light armoured vehicles to Ukraine and to provide the country with $5 billion in seized Russian assets.

Trudeau and a dozen other world leaders are in Kyiv today to mark the third anniversary of Russia's invasion.

Trudeau says Russia invaded Ukraine "to erase Ukrainian history and expand their empire."

More coming.
