"We reiterate our determination to further increase economic and political pressure on Russia, to continue to act united."

The G7 "will never recognise the borders that Russia wants to impose by force through its war in Ukraine, the foreign ministers of the Group of Seven most developed industrialised countries stressed today.

"We will never recognise the borders that Russia has tried to change with its military intervention," the diplomacy chiefs said in a statement released at the end of their three-day meeting in Vangels, in northern Germany, in which they again call on Belarus "to stop facilitating Russia's intervention and to respect its international commitments".

The G7 foreign ministers also say in their statement that they will strengthen Russia's economic and political isolation, continue to supply arms to Ukraine and work to limit global food shortages caused by the war in Ukraine, and also call on China "not to undermine" these measures.

"We reiterate our determination to further increase economic and political pressure on Russia, to continue to act together," the foreign ministers stress after their meeting in northern Germany, and say they want to "accelerate efforts" to "put an end to dependence on Russian energy."

The foreign ministers also "call on China not to support Russia in its attack" on Ukraine.
