During a summit interspersed with discussions on Russia's war in Ukraine and the Israel-Iran conflict, six G7 leaders failed to reach significant agreements on critical global issues. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the need for allied support and an unconditional ceasefire. The leaders pledged to tackle non-market policies affecting access to critical minerals and aim to address the impact of artificial intelligence. Despite these discussions, no collective statement on Ukraine was issued due to differing stances, particularly from the United States in light of its diplomatic preferences.
