Leaders of the Group of Seven (G7) major economies agreed to increase support for Ukraine during their annual summit held Tuesday in France. US President Donald Trump called on Russia to engage in peace negotiations, mirroring an approach Washington has recently taken with Iran.
According to Kyodo News, G7 leaders reaffirmed their commitment to provide continued security and economic assistance for Ukraine. President Trump stressed that talks with Russia are necessary to secure a lasting peace deal, drawing a parallel with successful negotiations with Iran.
Details of specific support measures and the timeline for talks are still under discussion among parties. Analysts suggest the move could open a new phase in the Ukrainian reconciliation process, although significant political and military challenges remain.
