Group of Seven (G7) nations committed on Sunday to ban or phase out imports of Russian oil and the US unveiled sanctions against Gazprombank executives and other businesses to punish Moscow for its war against Ukraine.
The move represents the latest attempt by the West to put pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin for his country’s invasion of Ukraine.
President Joe Biden joined G7 leaders in a videoconference call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss the war, support for Ukraine, and additional measures against Moscow.
