The Group of Seven ministers from Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United States, along with the European Union, convened in the remote tourist town of La Malbaie, nestled in the Quebec hills, for meetings on Thursday and Friday that in the past have been broadly consensual.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio briefed his colleagues on talks on Tuesday with Ukraine in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, where Kyiv said it was ready to support a 30-day ceasefire deal. But officials said ambiguous comments by Russian President Vladimir Putin left delegates unclear where things stood. In the run-up to the first G7 meeting of Canada&#8217;s presidency, the crafting of an agreed all-encompassing final statement had been tough, but diplomats said the atmosphere since had been positive and candid.<\/p>\n<p>There was hope for an accord, something they said was vital to show unity. &#8221;If we can&#8217;t reach agreement on the communique, then it shows the division. It&#8217;s not in the interest of any of the members of the G7,&#8221; EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas told Reuters on the sidelines of the G7 foreign ministers&#8217; meeting. Kallas said she was optimistic and that there was good wording on Ukraine so far that she hoped remained. A Japanese official echoed Kallas, saying failure to reach an agreement would only benefit China and Russia.<\/p>\n<p>A U.S. decision to impose 25% tariffs on all steel and aluminium imports immediately drew reciprocal measures from Canada and the EU, underscoring the tensions. &#8221;Under @POTUS&#8217;s leadership, we are going to use forums like the G7 to counter our adversaries and stand by our allies. America First!&#8221; Rubio said on X. Washington had sought to impose red lines on language around Ukraine and opposed a separate declaration on curbing Russia&#8217;s so-called shadow fleet, a murky shipping network that eludes sanctions, while demanding more robust language on China.<\/p>\n<p>A draft communique seen by Reuters made no mention of possible new sanctions on Russia.<br \/>\nHowever, it emphasised the need for robust and credible security guarantees so that a ceasefire would be respected and that Ukraine would be able to deter and defend itself against future aggression.<\/p>\n<p>The draft, substantially shorter than a statement in November that took aim at Russia, welcomed U.S. efforts in Jeddah and Ukraine&#8217;s commitment to an immediate ceasefire. It urged Russia to follow &#8221;unconditionally.&#8221; It also includes tougher language on China, as requested by Washington, and language on Taiwan that will likely be encouraging to Taipei.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/g7-foreign-ministers-meet-canada-amid-tensions-with-trump-2025-03-13\/\">Reuters<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/vau-viikkokatsaus\/g7-seeks-unity-as-trumps-tariffs-ukraine-stance-weighs-on-ties\/\">G7 seeks unity as Trump\u2019s tariffs, Ukraine stance weighs on ties<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1539,18220,606,607,608],"class_list":["post-138214","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-g7","tag-trumps-tariffs","tag-vau_viikkokatsaus","tag-vauen","tag-vaufien"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138214","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=138214"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138214\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=138214"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=138214"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=138214"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
