On May 19, 2023, the G7 summit began in Japan. On the first day of the event, the leaders of the states talked about Ukraine and made several important decisions.
The leaders of the G7 (G7) pledged not to waive measures to identify, freeze, confiscate and confiscate assets of natural and legal persons sanctioned in connection with Russia’s aggression. In addition, the partners pledged to continue supporting Ukraine in the war against Russia. This was expressed in the G7 statement made after the summit in Hiroshima.
“We reaffirm that, in accordance with our respective legal systems, Russia’s sovereign assets in our jurisdictions will not be effective until Russia pays for the damage it has caused to Ukraine,” the document said.
In addition, the leaders of the “Big Seven” do not reject Ukraine’s financial, humanitarian, military and diplomatic support. It will continue as long as necessary. Also at the summit, new actions were announced to defeat the Russian Federation in battle.
In the statement, “We express our deep condolences and condolences to the people of Ukraine for their pain and loss. We honor the people of Ukraine for their brave resistance. Our support for Ukraine will not be shaken.”
Important
In addition, G7 leaders pledged economic support from 2023-2024 and pledged to help rebuild the country after the war.
Recall that a few days ago a Council of Europe summit was held in Iceland, and it is an international record of the damage Russia has done to Ukraine since the far-reaching invasion. It will record all the facts of the damage and claims for damages.
Earlier, it was reported that Ukraine wants to receive compensation payments from Russia amounting to at least 300 billion dollars. This money is the equivalent of the frozen assets of the Bank of the Russian Federation in the G7 countries.
Focus also wrote that the G7 countries are ready to ban all imports of diamonds, copper, aluminum and nickel from Russia. According to the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine, the Russian Federation earned up to $2 billion annually from rubber and diamond imports.
