Summary
Evian hosts the G7 next week with Donald Trump arriving as the summit’s biggest uncertainty, leaving allies with little clarity on his goals or approach.
Iran peace-agreement discussions were gaining momentum Friday, and the state of those talks could shape both Trump’s mood and his conduct at the meeting.
France, Germany, Canada, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom will face Trump directly at a gathering where his schedule and personal style are expected to dominate proceedings.
Liana Fix of the Council on Foreign Relations said Trump is no longer seen as manageable in the way some leaders believed during his first term, underscoring the summit’s unpredictability.
