Diplomacy in Crisis: Zelenskiy Leaves G7 with Canadian Aid Amid U.S. Concerns

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy attended the G7 summit, securing substantial Canadian military aid while voicing concerns about the diplomatic deadlock with the United States regarding the Ukraine-Russia conflict.

Despite Canadian support, G7 unity over Ukraine was challenged by President Trump's expressed sympathies towards Russia and his early departure to deal with Middle-East tensions.
