“The G7 countries plan to develop comprehensive sanctions and economic measures to further limit the income, goods and technology that Russia uses to finance and wage war. This is stated in the joint statement of the G7 following the meeting in which the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andriy Sybiga took part. “We will take appropriate action, in accordance with our legal systems, against entities in China and other third countries that materially support the Russian military machine, including financial institutions and other organizations that facilitate Russia’s acquisition of equipment and goods for its defense industry base,” the statement reads. The “Group of Seven” declares that it will continue to put pressure on Russian revenues from the export of energy carriers, metals and other raw materials, including through the effective implementation of already adopted measures and further actions against the “shadow fleet”.

The G7 also expressed concern about the deployment of North Korean troops on the territory of Russia and their use on the battlefield against Ukraine. According to the authors of the statement, the direct participation of North Korea in the war “marks a dangerous expansion of the conflict”, which will have serious consequences for European and Indo-Pacific security. The organization expressed “deep concern” about China’s support for Russia and its defense industrial base, which enables Russia to “continue its illegal war in Ukraine and rebuild its armed forces and has significant implications for security in a broad sense.” “China must prevent its companies from transferring weapons, especially attack unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), dual-use materials, including weapons components, and equipment. We also call on China to step up its efforts to promote international peace and security and to put pressure on Russia to end its military aggression and immediately, completely and unconditionally withdraw its troops from Ukraine,” the G7 said.
