G7 joint statement on Ukraine is a real success, - Merz
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz stated that the G7 countries' joint statement was a "real success," in part because they managed to convince U.S. President Donald Trump to sign on to the document.
According to Censor.NET, DW reports on this.
"This is the first time since President Trump took office that we have adopted a joint statement at the G7 summit and found common ground on the key foreign policy and security issues of our time. I consider this a real success," he said.
What happened before that?
Leaders of the "Group of Seven" countries at the summit in Evian-les-Bains, France, agreed to increase pressure on Russia, in particular by imposing new sanctions on oil and gas exports to cut off funding for Putin's military actions against Ukraine.
