The head of the German Foreign Ministry, Annalena Burbock, said that the G7 must prove to Russian President Vladimir Putin that it is impossible to achieve his goals in the war against Ukraine, Ukrinform reports..

“Like a crisis team on a long mission, the G7 last year pitted Russian aggression against one barrier after another: winter aid for the people in Ukraine, anti-Russian sanctions and caps on oil prices.. With our support, Ukraine withstood the Russian energy war and the winter offensive,” said Burbock, who took part in the meeting of the G7 foreign ministers..

According to the German minister, during the meeting in Japan, representatives of the G7 countries will reaffirm and strengthen their commitments.

“This is about showing Putin our determination that he will not achieve his goals also because of exhaustion and fatigue,” Burbock said..
