The leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized countries approved at their summit held in Japan on Friday new sanctions on Russia. The sanctions included restrictions on exports of goods such as diamonds, and depriving Moscow of industrial technologies and equipment.
The leaders pledged in the draft final statement of the summit to reduce dependence on trade with China. Ukraine will receive the support it needs in the budget this year and early 2024, while renewing their commitment to provide it with financial and military support in its war with Russia.
