G7 nations still discussing joint statement on Ukraine, Canadian minister says
The Group of Seven nations are still debating a possible joint statement marking the third anniversary of the war between Ukraine and Russia, with Canada expressing disagreement with the US position on the conflict. Canada's Foreign Minister Melanie Joly stated that discussions continue, but no consensus has been reached. The G7 presidency is set to pass to Canada in 2025, which may impact the future of joint statements on the issue.
- The lack of a unified G7 statement on Ukraine highlights the challenges of coordinating foreign policy among nations with differing views on the conflict, potentially undermining international efforts to address the crisis.
- How will the eventual Canadian-led presidency shape the tone and content of G7 responses to the war in Ukraine in the years to come?
