G7 agreed 'Marshall plan' for Ukraine: Scholz

Munich, June 28 (UNI/Sputnik) German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced in a wrap-up to the Group of Seven summit of advanced economies that the leaders had agreed to draw up a "Marshall plan" for Ukraine.
"We have been talking about long-term reconstruction, for which there is money that has to be mobilized... We need a 'Marshall plan' for Ukraine that must be properly outlined and developed. We plan to do it," he said, referring to a 1948 US program to finance its allies.
Scholz told a press conference that the conflict in Ukraine had dominated the leaders' talks at Schloss Elmau in Bavaria. He confirmed that sanctions imposed on Russia would remain in place until it reached an "honest agreement" with Ukraine.
