G7 Hiroshima Summit 2023: Ukraine’s Zelenskyy arrives in Japan

Zelenskyy’s arrival at the G7 summit comes a day after winning long-sought access to advanced US fighter jets and training for Ukrainian pilots.

His surprise appearance in Japan follows shortly after he welcomed as “historic” Biden’s decision to allow Ukrainian pilots train to fly F-16 fighters.

Until now the Biden administration had effectively vetoed the transfer of F-16s, with US officials citing long pilot training times and the risk of escalating the conflict with Russia.

US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan insists there was no U-turn in US policy.

“We’ve reached a moment where it’s time to look down the road and to say ‘What is Ukraine going to need… to be able to deter and defend against Russian aggression?'”

“F-16s, fourth-generation fighter aircraft, are part of that mix,” Sullivan told reporters on Saturday.

“We are going to do everything we can to support Ukraine in its defence of its sovereignty and territorial integrity, and we are also going to proceed in a way that avoids World War III,” he added.

Where is the G7 summit 2023 taking place, who is attending, and what are the key issues?

Z-man should get the center ring in what has now become a circus in Japan.

[Kenjikah]

How ironic the very people trying to start a nuclear war are meeting in Hiroshima🤔

[melidareichert]

The closure of the skies is a crucial defensive measure that will save lives

[maircapais]

The way the world is going, i think that China and India should ramp up their long range nuclear arsenals with enough range to cover every country.

[imranshaikshaik]

Free Palestine first.
Arrogant zelensskyy

[yusufbanda]

Is Ukraine in the G7? Then Malawi should also be in the group

[timakygenzieq]

The world seems to prefer BRICS more than G7.

[alanmorgan]

Amazing I thought only zelenski was the actor, I was wrong how can they all go there put wreaths down and talk more war, this is embarrassing

[prakritighodki]

There is an urgent need to focus on sustainable peace in the world. 🙏

[leisakovacek]

I admire Zelensky and how bravely Ukraine is fighting. I hope that our support will only increase until Ukraine wins. I also hope that the new sanctions package will be adopted soon and the Russian budget will suffer even more

Appropriate that being at Hiroshima, Sunak should answer for supplying depleted uranium to Ukraine and now Europe has a radiation cloud containing alpha particles and also emitting gamma radiation. This has been confirmed by EU measurements as well as the Marie Curie Institution at Lublin Poland. A detailed account of this is needed with no hiding suppression or distortion of information.

[antonylambert]

Zelenyskyy full time comedian has arrived

All people have had enough of Zelenski. When they hear or see him, they switch off or change the channel.
