TOKYO (Sputnik) - Japan will provide an additional $1 billion in humanitarian aid to Ukraine in line with the G7 countries' pledge to support Kiev, the Japanese Foreign Ministry announced on Thursday.
"[Prime Minister Fumio Kishida] said that this time Japan has decided to provide an additional $1 billion in aid to Ukraine, including humanitarian and reconstruction assistance," the ministry said in a statement following the G7 online summit.
In total, Tokyo will provide Ukraine with $4.5 billion in assistance, including loan guarantees to the World Bank, according to the statement.
