equipment, interceptors and long‑range strike capabilities to Ukraine and is

group pledged to intensify pressure on the Russian economy and to strengthen
sanctions, including measures targeting the oil and gas sector. The statement
said now is an appropriate time for further steps, citing an agreement by Trump
to support reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
