G7 countries step up financial support for Ukraine to help it through winter – statement
The foreign ministers of the Group of Seven (G7) countries have agreed to strengthen financial support for Ukraine during the winter period, according to a statement by the ministers published on Wednesday following their meeting in Paris.
The G7 nations have reaffirmed their commitment to supplying Ukraine with crucial military aid, including air defense equipment, interceptors, and long-range weapons, as well as licenses for Ukraine to expand its own military production, according to a joint statement released by the G7 foreign ministers. The ministers evaluated the progress made in providing Ukraine with these critical capabilities during their meeting in Paris on November 9-10.
The statement emphasized the importance of granting Ukraine licenses to bolster its domestic military production and uphold its fundamental right to self-defense. The G7's commitment to supporting Ukraine in defending its territorial integrity, sovereignty, freedom, and independence was reiterated, alongside solidarity with Ukrainian citizens facing relentless Russian aggression targeting residential areas, civilian infrastructure, and cultural heritage sites.
