ロシアの「併合」認めず　一段の制裁へ―Ｇ７外相

　【ベルリン時事】先進７カ国（Ｇ７）の外相は３０日、ロシアが決めたウクライナ東・南部４州の一方的な「併合」や、その根拠とされた「銃口を突き付けて行われた偽の住民投票」について決して認めず、ロシアに一段の制裁を科すとの共同声明を発表した。
　Ｇ７は「併合」について「ロシアによる国際法の露骨な無視が、新たな最低地点に達した」と糾弾。ロシアや、同国の国際法違反を支援する個人・団体に対して「一段の経済的代償を負わせる」と明言した。（2022/10/01-01:28）

Foreign Ministers of the Group of Seven major powers on Friday reacted harshly to Russia's moves to annex four eastern and southern regions of Ukraine.
   "We will never recognize these purported annexations, nor the sham 'referenda' conducted at gunpoint," the ministers said in a statement.
   Russian President Vladimir Putin's efforts to incorporate the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhya regions into the territory of Russia "constitute a new low point in Russia's blatant flouting of international law" and yet another example of its unacceptable violations of Ukraine's sovereignty, the statement said.
   "We will impose further economic costs on Russia, and on individuals and entities--inside and outside of Russia--that provide political or economic support to these violations of international law," the ministers said, calling on "the broader international community to reject Russia's brutal expansionism."
   Reiterating their "condemnation of Russia's irresponsible nuclear rhetoric," the ministers urged Russia to "immediately stop its war of aggression" against Ukraine and "withdraw all of its troops and military equipment from Ukraine."
