The leaders of the Group of Seven countries generally agree on the need to continue to support the economy through fiscal stimulus, the media quoted an unnamed person familiar with the matter as saying.

All G7 leaders, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel, support continued fiscal stimulus, according to people familiar with the matter. The President of the United States, the Prime Minister of Britain and Prime Minister Draghi of Italy are particularly supportive.

According to reports, G7 leaders believe that the rise in inflation after the relaxation of the anti-epidemic blockade in many countries will be temporary. G7 leaders stressed the importance of taking action to reduce unemployment, such as retraining and providing support to young workers.
