G7 allies scramble to put Ukraine back atop Trump's agenda as war drags on

European leaders want Trump to renew support for Ukraine as Kyiv seeks more air defenses and sanctions on Russia, officials said.

  • G7 leaders gathered in Evian-les-Bains on June 16-17, 2026, urging President Donald Trump to refocus on Ukraine as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy joined the summit to address the conflict.
  • Prior to the summit, the U.S.-Iran conflict overshadowed the four-year-old war in Ukraine, as President Trump prioritized regional stability and reopening the Strait of Hormuz to tanker traffic.
  • Hours before the summit, Russian missile strikes killed at least 11 people in Kyiv, heightening urgency as Zelenskyy met with leaders to discuss security needs and air-defense priorities.
  • Leaders agreed to bolster Ukraine's air defenses and intensify economic pressure on Moscow through sanctions targeting oil and gas sectors, aiming to bring Russia to the negotiating table.
  • The Iran deal initiates a 60-day negotiation window on nuclear issues, while G7 members commit to maintaining energy security and sustained support for Ukraine against Russian aggression.
