European leaders are trying to engage US President Donald Trump on the war in Ukraine as leaders from the Group of Seven (G7) meet. Multiple reports say Trump has urged Russia to “make a deal” with Ukraine, and European officials want the conflict to remain a priority on the international agenda during the summit. According to the accounts, European leaders are working to secure time to speak with Trump directly and present their position on Ukraine. The reports also note that Trump’s attention is currently focused more on the US-Israeli war related to Iran, which European leaders see as a challenge in keeping Ukraine at the forefront of his policy considerations. The coverage frames the current effort as an attempt to persuade or influence Trump’s stance toward negotiations or continued support, in light of his public call for a deal. The reporting does not indicate that a direct agreement has been reached, but describes ongoing efforts ahead of or during the G7 meeting to raise Ukraine’s profile in discussions with the US president.
