G7 to coordinate help for reconstruction of Ukraine’s energy sector

MUENSTER, 05 November 2022, (TON): The Group of Seven countries agreed on Friday to coordinate their support for the reconstruction of Ukraine’s energy and water supplies following recent Russian attacks on the power grid that have caused widespread blackouts.

The foreign ministers of the wealthiest democracies said “we will stand firmly with Ukraine for as long as it takes.”

Their statement said “today we establish a G7 coordination mechanism to help Ukraine repair, restore and defend its critical energy and water infrastructure.”

Russia’s Feb. 24 invasion of Ukraine, Iran’s deepening military alignment with Moscow over the war as well as China’s growing assertiveness topped the agenda of the G7 meeting.
