The leaders of the G7 countries have agreed to expand deliveries of air defense systems and long-range weapons to Ukraine.

According to Ukrinform, this is stated in the joint declaration issued by G7 leaders following their summit in France.

"To support and accelerate this new momentum, we agree to increase the delivery of air defence capacities, additional systems and interceptors, and long-range capabilities. We are also ready to consider extending to Ukraine the benefit of licenses to allow for an increase in Ukraine’s military production," the statement says.

The leaders of the Group of Seven also pledged to increase pressure on Russia's wartime economy.

"We will strengthen sanctions, particularly in the oil and gas sectors. We believe this is a very timely moment to introduce additional measures, as President Trump has reached an agreement that we support with regard to keeping the Strait of Hormuz open," they stated.
