G7 summit in France slipped as Trump schedule and Iran talks loomed

The Group of Seven summit in Evian, France, started later than originally planned after President Donald Trump's schedule forced a change, Bloomberg reported, while uncertainty around US-Iran peace talks added another complication. The gathering is usually centered on economic and trade coordination among major democracies. This year, attention shifted to whether Washington and Tehran could reach a deal that might culminate in a signing ceremony in Geneva. Bloomberg reported that speculation around such an agreement, alongside a sizable US military presence, raised expectations but left the summit's agenda harder to predict and added strain to already tense US-European relations.
