Foreign ministers of leading Western democracies meet in Canada to discuss rising tensions with President Donald Trump over tariffs and foreign policy on Ukraine. The crafting of an agreed final statement has been tough, with the US imposing tariffs on steel and aluminum imports and seeking to impose red lines on language around Ukraine. The positive outcome from talks in Jeddah may ease discussions on Ukraine. Relations between the US and Canada are strained, with Trump threatening to impose tariffs on all imports from Canada and musing about annexing the country. The G7 meeting will be used to assess the influence of US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on foreign policy.
