Ukraine secures fresh air defence commitments at G7 Summit in France

Evian [France]: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Wednesday said the G7 Summit in France delivered significant outcomes for Ukraine, including commitments to further strengthen the country's air defence capabilities and increase pressure on Russia.

In a post on X, Zelenskyy said that the G7 leaders had agreed on new measures aimed at supporting Ukraine's security and resilience while intensifying efforts to push Russia towards peace.

"The G7 Summit in France delivered important results for Ukraine. Most importantly, we agreed on additional strengthening of Ukraine's air defence. There will be new steps to put pressure on Russia over its war - pressure for the sake of peace," Zelenskyy said.

He added that Ukraine's partners would continue supporting the country's defence requirements and energy infrastructure.

"Our partners will ensure support for our defence and energy resilience. It is important that we have a shared understanding of the main challenges and concrete steps to respond to them."

"Our global unity is truly reducing Russia's ability to continue this insane and criminal aggression against Ukraine. I thank everyone who is helping us!" Zelenskyy said.
