The G7 stressed unwavering support for Ukraine, while the EU recommended starting talks on Kyiv's membership. Meanwhile, Russia issued an arrest order for another International Criminal Court judge.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has welcomed the G7 statement on Ukraine after the group's foreign ministers reiterated unwavering support for Kyiv.
Zelenskyy said he spoke to Japan's Prime Minister Fumio Kishida and that he thanked him for his country's "lead in supporting Ukraine during its G7 presidency."
"I am particularly grateful to Japan for its substantial energy aid, which includes powerful turbines and transformers, as well as the resumption of JICA office activities in Kyiv," Zelenskyy said.
The Ukrainian president added that he also discussed with Kishida expanding cooperation, including on security guarantees. They also discussed further macroeconomic financial support for Ukraine.
The G7 reiterated in a summit in Tokyo that its "steadfast commitment to supporting Ukraine's fight for its independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity will never waver."
