G7 says will continue economic pressure on Russia, tackle 'wheat war'

G7 to continue weapons supplies 'as long as necessary'; G7 to speed up efforts to end dependence on Russia energy; EU says no sign Putin wants to end war

Group of Seven foreign ministers vowed on Saturday to reinforce Russia's economic and political isolation, continue supplying weapons to Ukraine and tackle what Germany's foreign minister described as a "wheat war" being waged by Moscow.
 

After meeting at a 400-year-old castle estate in the Baltic Sea resort of Weissenhaus, senior diplomats from Britain, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the United States and the European Union also pledged to continue their military and defence assistance for "as long as necessary".
 

They would also tackle what they called Russian misinformation aimed at blaming the West for food supply issues around the world
