The G7 leaders, which includes Germany, Canada, the United States, France, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom, reaffirmed they will work on applying hard-and-fast sanctions.

According to the US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, the G7 member nations agreed upon an initiative to “counteract any Russian attempt to shirk sanctions.”
