G7 ministers meeting on efforts to end Ukraine conflict, halt new Iran war
Focus of meetings strikingly similar to those from March
G7 foreign ministers are meeting in Paris for two days starting Monday to discuss the war in Ukraine and the possibility of further United States military strikes against Iran. According to the Toronto Sun, European powers are expected to urge the United States to seek a fair settlement regarding the conflict with Russia and to deter further military action against Iran. France 24 reports that Washington has kept the option of new strikes on Iran open since Republicans lost the midterm elections.
