The G7 Foreign Ministers of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States as well as the High Representative of the European Union commended the ongoing efforts to achieve a ceasefire in Ukraine, and in particular the meeting on March 11 between the US and Ukraine in Saudi Arabia.
In a statement released after their meeting in Charlevoix, Quebec, they commended Ukraine for its commitment to an immediate ceasefire, SPA reported.

They emphasized that this is an essential step toward achieving a comprehensive, just, and lasting peace in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations. They called on Russia to reciprocate by agreeing to a ceasefire on equal terms.

The statement affirmed their support for the resumption of unhindered humanitarian aid into Gaza and for a permanent ceasefire, emphasizing the imperative for the Palestinian people to have a political horizon reached through a negotiated solution to the conflict with Israel, in a manner that meets their legitimate needs and aspirations and promotes comprehensive peace, stability, and prosperity in the Middle East.
The G7 members also expressed deep concern about the escalation of tensions and hostilities in the West Bank, calling for de-escalation and affirming readiness to engage with Arab countries on their proposals for charting a way forward on the future, reconstructing Gaza, and achieving peace.
