G7 warns Russia of expanded sanctions unless it backs ceasefire

The United States and its G7 partners have warned Moscow that they can expand the sanctions and use frozen Russian resources to support Ukraine, because Donald Trump wants to win Vladimir Putin for its ceasefire proposal.

A week later, Kiev signed up in 7 days of war, but Moscow immediately expressed reluctance to do so, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his associates on Friday threw a joint statement against Russia on Friday and earned some unity degree.

Published in Canada after the G7 meeting, their contacts have been mentioned that the Foreign Ministers have discussed more fines if the Kremlin does not fully implement the ceasefire.

Asked about our sanctions, Rubio warned that Trump “Don’t want to do so right now, because he is hoping to attract people on both sides in a process where we can discuss peace.”

He added that it is not yet clear whether Russia is playing for time.

“The question is, are we actually moving towards a ceasefire, or is it a delay strategy?” Secretary of State. “I’m not going to answer that because I can’t identify it for you right now.”

The G -7 statement said that ministers discussed the potential arrangements against Moscow, such as “oil prices caps, as well as additional assistance for Ukraine and other means”, especially using the income of frozen Russian assets.

After the full-scale invasion of G7 in Moscow, in 2022, most of the cash and about $ 300 billion in the property of the Government Bond-Central Bank.

Rubio, who had previously indicated that Kiev had to give regional concessions, indicated Friday that Moscow had to do so.

“I have never heard of President Trump saying that all Russia’s right to take Ukraine and they have the right to do whatever they want,” she said.

He also added that the President’s Ambassador Steve Witcoof returned to Moscow to test the position of Trump this weekend after Trump’s national security team would call.

Trump said in a post on his true social network that the previous day’s discussion with Putin was “good and productive”.

Until this week, the new administration has focused on imposing pressure on Kiev to agree to the rapid consequences of the war, but the suspicion of Putin’s immediate ceasefire has drawn to Moscow.

Canadian Foreign Minister Melania Jolie told reporters on Friday, “The ball is now in the Russian court when talking about Ukraine.”

An officer said that the text in contact with Ukraine was a matter of overnight exciting. The United States argued that the strong language could disrupt the negotiations with Russia and it was given water to reach an agreement, they said.

Kiev and Britain and France are keen to overcome a catastrophic meeting last month by returning to the US agenda between Russia between Trump and its Ukrainian equivalent Volodimire Jewnsky.

This week, Jensky’s government agreed to Trump’s proposal after military support and intelligence sharing with the United States Kiev – both Washington said it was resumed.

In contrast, Putin said that he supported the ceasefire but added it “Issue” remains It needs to be discussed first.

His reluctance to make the ceasefire proposal comes back because the Russian forces have made significant ProgressWhere Ukraine occupied more than 1,000 square kilometers from Russia last summer.

In his true social post, Trump claimed that the Russian army surrounded thousands of Ukrainian troops, adding that “I have strongly requested President Putin that their lives should be saved”.

Normal activists of Ukraine have denied that the Ukrainian army has been surrounded and said that the fight in the Kursk region is still going on.

Putin said Friday that Ukrainian troops in Kursk “should surrender” to perform Trump’s appeal “because Jensky dismissed Moscow’s position on ceasefire as a stalling strategy.

The Ukrainian President says, “The devil is in detail and they will start to drag you into a conversation, delay certain processes and to postpone you to suspend the end of the war,” the Ukrainian president said. He also added that he expected the “sight response” from Trump to Putin’s position.

Gensky also said that the issue of Ukrainian regions occupied by Russian forces would be “the most difficult”.

Ceasefire and regions “the hardest moments [of a negotiation]”, He said.

“The first one is difficult because it requires courage and political desire, the second is because it needs a difficult conversation.”

Europeans and the United States are expected to adjust economic pressure on Putin. National security advisers from Britain, France and Germany were in Washington on Friday to discuss with their US counterpart Mike Waltz.

France and Germany, which opposed a full-fledged occupation of wealth in the EU for a long time, is now warming the idea and discussing the way they can be used with the United Kingdom and others.
