President Donald Trump, after celebrating his 80th birthday, is set to attend the G7 summit in Évian-les-Bains, France, from June 15 to 17. This marks his fifth appearance at the summit, which will focus on global issues like the conflicts in Iran and Ukraine. The U.S.-Iran war, now in its 15th week, has affected global oil prices and strained relations with some G7 allies. Trump plans to meet with leaders from Egypt, Qatar, and the UAE, and has announced an agreement with Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz. The summit will also address the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy attending. Although Trump has promised to resolve the conflict, no direct meeting with Zelenskyy is scheduled. The G7 includes France, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, and the UK, with other leaders often invited.
