The G7 foreign ministers of the more developed industrialized nations warned Russia today that it would face “massive consequences” if President Vladimir Putin attacked Ukraine, according to a draft statement seen by Reuters.
At a meeting in Liverpool, northern England, G7 delegates said they condemned Russia’s military development near Ukraine and called on Moscow to escalate the situation.
“Russia should have no doubt that further military action against Ukraine will have massive consequences and high costs,” the draft statement said, G7 sources confirmed.
Ukraine is at the center of a crisis in East-West relations as it accuses Russia of mobilizing tens of thousands of troops in preparation for a possible large-scale military strike.
Russia has denied the allegations in a statement issued Friday stating “Similar, baseless allegations concerning Russia and its allies have been made more than once.
The G7 includes Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Canada and the United States, and is also represented by a representative of the European Union.
