Foreign ministers from the G7 nations reached a deal on a joint statement aimed at showing unity on Friday that backed Ukraine's territorial integrity and warned Russia to follow Kyiv in accepting a ceasefire or face possible further sanctions.

"G7 members called for Russia to reciprocate by agreeing to a ceasefire on equal terms and implementing it fully," the G7 nations, comprising Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United States, said in a final draft statement seen by Reuters.

In the draft communiqué following the meeting, the G7 foreign ministers did not include new sanctions against Russia. But the joint statement will mention security guarantees for Ukraine, according to Reuters.
