At the G7 summit in Evian-les-Bains, France, European leaders are advocating for U.S. President Donald Trump to pursue a more robust long-term agreement concerning Iran's nuclear program and to revise his approach to Ukraine. The temporary Iran deal allows for a 60-day period to negotiate enriched uranium conditions and sanctions relief, alongside discussions about reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is appealing for renewed support from Western nations, as European officials emphasize that Russia continues to be the primary hurdle to achieving peace. This summit may significantly impact future diplomatic efforts in both the Middle East and Ukraine.
