## Resource

The G7 summit pivoted sharply toward Iran as a major diplomatic breakthrough—brokered by the U.S.—reopened the Strait of Hormuz and set the stage for a new Middle East strategy, even as Ukraine faced a brutal Russian drone and missile barrage. President Trump pushed for a renewed focus on Ukraine, while Macron welcomed Gulf leaders to the table. Despite Ukraine’s crisis taking a backseat in headlines, G7 nations reaffirmed their commitment with stronger sanctions on Russia’s energy sector and pledged advanced air defense systems for Kyiv. Meanwhile, Ukraine formally launched EU membership talks—a historic step toward long-term security. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
