MADRID - Western allies vowed on Tuesday to boost Nato's defences and to back Ukraine to the end as Moscow demanded Kyiv's surrender.

Erdogan's office said late on Tuesday it had agreed to back their applications, saying Ankara had"got what it wanted". Ahead of the summit, Stoltenberg said the allies would boost their high-readiness forces from 40,000 to 300,000.Before travelling to Madrid, Biden and other leaders of the Group of 7 powers - the world's richest democracies - had held a summit in the German Alps.

At the G-7 summit, the leaders agreed to impose new sanctions targeting Moscow's defence industry, raising tariffs and banning gold imports from the country. "The Ukrainian side can stop everything before the end of today," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. All that was left of the mall was charred debris, chunks of blackened walls and lettering from a smashed store front.

The G-7 leaders did not go so far as to brand Putin a terrorist - but they vowed that Russia, already under tough sanctions, would face more economic pain."We will continue to keep up and drive up the economic and political costs of this war for President Putin and his regime."The G-7 had announced several new measures to put the squeeze on Putin, including a plan to work towards a price cap on Russian oil.
