G7 allies press Trump to keep focus on Ukraine

European leaders at the Group of Seven summit in France worked to refocus President Donald Trump's attention on the war in Ukraine, wary that the conflict could be sidelined by Middle East diplomacy.

Competing priorities

With Trump largely focused on the newly announced Iran ceasefire, host President Emmanuel Macron and other allies pressed the case for continued support for Kyiv and increased pressure on Moscow to reach a peace agreement.

Transatlantic balance

The push highlighted enduring differences over how to weigh competing crises. European governments view sustained backing for Ukraine as essential to the continent's security.
