The heads of the world's richest nations are gathering in a French spa town this week for a Group of Seven summit. Starting Monday, the summit will be dominated by discussions on the global agenda, specifically Russia's war on Ukraine and the peace process with Iran.
A key part of the summit will involve determining the next steps regarding the Iranian conflict, which has recently overshadowed the war in Ukraine. The talks come on the heels of President Donald Trump's announcement of an agreement to end the U.S. war against Iran, a deal that is expected to face significant scrutiny.
President Emmanuel Macron says leaders will discuss the US-Iran agreement, including the long-term reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. While the EU seeks to ensure Ukraine remains on the agenda, G7 leaders are cautiously optimistic about the promised peace in Iran.
