Foreign Ministers Say G7 Will Keep Up Economic Pressure Over Russia's Invasion Of Ukraine

The foreign ministers of the Group of Seven (G7) leading industrialized nations said on February 21 that their countries would continue to impose economic costs on Russia and urged the broader international community to reject what they described as Moscow's "brutal expansionism."

"We will impose further economic costs on Russia, and on individuals and entities – inside and outside of Russia – that provide political or economic support to these violations of international law," the ministers said in a joint statement.
