Japanese Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi said Japan will invite his Ukrainian counterpart to the Group of Seven (G7) foreign ministers’ meeting to be held in Germany on Feb. 18, Kyodo reported on Thursday.
As the organiser of the meeting and the chair of G7 summit this year, Japan is also preparing to host a G7 summit meeting online on Feb. 24, timed with the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Kyodo news agency reported earlier this month.
Support measures to Ukraine and sanctions against Russia are expected to be a top priority for G7 leaders.
