G7 leaders meet for first full day of talks with Russia-Ukraine war first on the agenda – Europe live
World leaders will be joined by Volodymyr Zelenskyy as they try to keep Donald Trump on side So what we now have is the leaders of Canada, EU, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK waiting for Trump, Macron and Zelenskyy . It sounded as if someone, possibly Meloni, was telling some sort of story that involved the White House, but it’s impossible to make out what it was.
Back to G7, Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy has taken to social media to hail a good G7-Ukraine discussion in France , thanking fellow leaders for their time this morning and “for the strong ideas on how to force Russia into peace.”
“Priorities are clear: more air defense missiles along with licences to produce them, winter support package, and cranking up pressure on Russia. Importantly, the US is ready to provide backstop across these lines of effort.
It is key that everything discussed be implemented. Russia must come to learn that its war will never be normalized. I thank everyone who’s helping.
