Russia and China have reacted angrily to the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Hiroshima, which pledged new measures designed to target Russia and spoke out about concerns over China. The Moscow government condemned the G7’s agenda for seeking to “deter” both countries whilst the Chinese Foreign Ministry accused the G7 of “hindering international peace”. Both Russia’s aggression towards Ukraine and how to confront a more assertive China have dominated the three-day gathering of the world’s big democracies taking place in Japan, which counts both amongst its neighbours.
