TOKYO -- The Group of Seven nations are unshakable in their support for Ukraine, Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv on Tuesday.

Kishida, who will host G-7 leaders in Hiroshima this May, pledged to provide $30 million in nonlethal aid through NATO for Ukraine. He is the last G-7 leader to visit Ukraine since Russia invaded it in February 2022.
