By John Irish and Sakura Murakami
HIROSHIMA, Japan – Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskiy attended the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Hiroshima, Japan, to seek support for his country’s ongoing war against Russia. Zelenskiy met with India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other non-aligned countries in attendance to discuss Ukraine’s needs, including mobile hospitals and the removal of land mines. Modi expressed India’s readiness to continue humanitarian aid and support for dialogue and diplomacy to seek peace.
Russian and Chinese Ire
The G7 leaders announced new measures aimed at hitting the Russian economy and promised further military support, including backing by U.S. President Joe Biden for Ukrainian pilots to be trained to fly F-16 fighter jets. The G7 also issued a communique that set out a common strategy towards future dealings with China, warning that countries attempting to use trade as a weapon would face “consequences.” Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused the G7 of trying to eliminate Russia as a geopolitical competitor, while China’s foreign ministry accused the G7 of interfering in its internal affairs, including Taiwan.
AI Technology and Climate Change
The G7 acknowledged differences on how to manage the rapid development of artificial intelligence technology, calling for consensus on global technical standards. While they reaffirmed existing net-zero emissions targets in the fight against climate change, they said in their communique that investment in the gas sector could be temporarily appropriate as countries phase out reliance on Russian energy.
