G7 will not recognise new ‘war’ borders

THE G7 nations said on Saturday they would not recognise the borders Russia is trying to shift by force in its war against Ukraine and pledged enduring support for Kyiv.

“We will never recognise borders Russia has attempted to change by military aggression, and will uphold our engagement in the support of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, including Crimea, and all states,” the G7 foreign ministers said in a statement after three days of talks in northern Germany.

The ministers, who met in Wangels, also vowed to expand sanctions to include sectors on which Russia is dependent and keep supplying Ukraine with weapons to help it repel Russia’s invasion. |
