G7 says ‘committed to further’ sanctions against Russia: draft

In a draft statement released on Saturday, the finance ministers of the G7 said they would oppose attempts at evasion and were “committed to further financial and economic sanctions” against Russia for its conflict against Ukraine.

“We are also committed to further financial and economic sanctions to reduce  Russia’s sources of revenue and capacity to wage war against Ukraine, including continuing to target Russia’s energy revenue and future extractive capabilities,” they said in a draft statement seen by AFP at the end of talks in Stresa.
