CHARLEVOIX, Canada, March 14, 2025 (BSS/AFP) - Group of Seven foreign ministers reached a unified statement backing US-led calls for a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, host Canada said Friday, despite friction with President Donald Trump.

"I can say that through our long conversations, we were able to find strong G7 unity on a variety of issues that were discussed and one that I would like to highlight in particular is the one linked to Ukraine," Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly told reporters on the last day of the talks in Quebec.
