G7 leaders fail to reach ambitious joint agreements on key issues after Trump's exit
KANANASKIS, Alberta — Six of the Group of Seven leaders discussed Russia's war in Ukraine and the Israel-Iran conflict but failed to reach major agreements on those and many other top issues — wrapping up a summit that was forced to try and show how the wealthy nations' club might still shape global policy despite the early departure of U.S. President Donald Trump. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and his counterparts from the U.K., France, Germany, Italy and Japan were joined during Tuesday's final sessions by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and NATO chief Mark Rutte. 'We need support from allies and I'm here,' Zelenskyy said, before adding, 'We are ready for the peace negotiations, unconditional ceasefire. I think it's very important. But for this, we need pressure.' The remaining leaders agreed to jointly attempt to combat what they called non-market policies that could jeopardize global access to critical minerals. They also pledged to limit the downsides of artificial intelligence on jobs and the environment, while still embracing the potential of the 'technological revolution.' There was consensus on other issues, but though the summit was meant to showcase unity on top global concerns, no joint statement on the conflict in Ukraine was released. Zelenskyy had been set to meet with Trump while world leaders were gathering in the Canadian Rocky Mountain resort of Kananaskis, but that was scrapped. The U.S. also previously signed an agreement granting American access to Ukraine's vast mineral resources. A senior Canadian official said the U.S. opposed a joint statement on Ukraine amid its efforts to promote negotiations with Russia. The official said it only became clear during the summit's first day on Monday that there wouldn't be a joint statement — though other attendees suggested no consensus agreement was seriously on the table. The official spoke on condition of anonymity due to not being authorized to discuss summit deliberations. In Trump's absence, the remaining six leaders held an extensive session on Ukraine. Lacking unanimity, individual leaders also met with Zelenskyy to reassure him of their support. The summit also was largely overshadowed by a showdown over Iran's nuclear program that could escalate. Israel launched an aerial bombardment campaign against Iran, and Iran has hit back with missiles and drones. French President Emmanuel Macron warned against the U.S. and other powers pushing for regime change in Iran, suggesting it could destabilize the greater Middle East. 'I believe the greatest mistake today would be to pursue regime change in Iran through military means, as that would lead to chaos,' Macron said. Before leaving, Trump joined the other leaders in issuing a statement saying Iran 'can never have a nuclear weapon' and calling for a 'de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza.' Getting unanimity — even on a short and broadly worded statement — was a modest measure of success. Macron said Carney fulfilled his mission as G7 host by preserving the unity of the multilateral organization. 'We shouldn't ask the Canadian presidency to resolve every issue on earth today. That would be unfair,' said Macron, who will host the G7 next year. Carney said in his final remarks Tuesday evening that Trump's early exit was about the 'extraordinary' situation in the Middle East, not anything that occurred during the summit. 'There was no problem,' Canada's prime minister said. 'Mr. Trump felt it was better to be in Washington, and I can understand that.' Carney said Canada would impose new economic sanctions against Russia and was releasing its own statement offering 'unwavering support for a secure and sovereign Ukraine.' Asked if the U.S. pushed to soften any possible joint statement from the gathered leaders on Ukraine, Carney said he consulted with Trump while preparing the language his own country used. Still, Trump's departure only served to heighten the drama of a world on the verge of several firestorms — and of a summit deprived early of its most-watched world leader. ` 'We did everything I had to do at the G7,' Trump said while flying back to Washington. But things were getting awkward even before he left. After the famous photo from the G7 in 2018 featured Trump and then-German Chancellor Angela Merkel displaying less-than-friendly body language, this year's edition included a dramatic eye-roll by Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni as French President Emmanuel Macron whispered something in her ear during a Monday roundtable. That, and concerns about the Russia-Ukraine war, little progress on the conflict in Gaza and now the situation in Iran have made things all the more tense — especially after Trump imposed severe tariffs on multiple nations that risk a global economic slowdown. Members of Trump's trade team remained in Canada to continue discussing tariffs, including Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who sat at the table as world leaders met with Zelenskyy. Trump's stance on Ukraine also put him fundamentally at odds with the other G7 leaders, who are clear that Russia is the aggressor in the war. The U.S. declined to join new sanctions against Russia, with Trump saying, 'When I sanction a country, that costs the U.S. a lot of money, a tremendous amount of money.' Trump also said at the summit that there would have been no war in Ukraine if G7 members hadn't expelled Putin from the organization in 2014 for annexing Crimea. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said the G7 now looks 'very pale and quite useless' compared to 'for example, such formats as the G20.' Additionally, the U.S. president has placed greater priority on addressing his grievances with other nations' trade policies than on collaboration with G7 allies. He has imposed 50% tariffs on steel and aluminum, as well as 25% tariffs on autos. Trump is also charging a 10% tax on imports from most countries, though he could raise rates on July 9, after the 90-day negotiating period set by him would expire. One bright spot for Trump during the summit came when he and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer signed a trade framework that was previously announced in May. Trump said British trade was 'very well protected' because 'I like them, that's why. That's their ultimate protection.' But, while announcing that agreement, Trump brandished pages spelling out the deal and dropped them. Starmer stooped to pick them up, later explaining that he was compelled to ditch diplomatic decorum because anyone else trying to help risked spooking the president's security team. 'There were quite strict rules about who can get close to the president,' Starmer said, adding that he was 'just deeply conscious that in a situation like that it would not have been good for anybody else to have stepped forward.'

Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent owner throws out the fashion rulebook
Things are getting wild in the luxury industry. Quiet boardrooms are turning into war rooms. Legacy houses that coasted on prestige and heritage are now clawing for relevance. Once bulletproof brands are bleeding market share, losing cultural heat, and watching TikTok drive trends they can't keep up with. At the center of the storm? Kering. Related: Gucci, YSL owner pushes back on tariff threats The French luxury giant, home to Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta, and others, is unraveling. After riding high for years, Kering is now facing a full-blown identity crisis. Its crown jewel, Gucci, has lost momentum. Gen Z isn't buying in. Sales are slumping. Analysts are doubting. Investors are bailing. And leadership? Wobbling. In the past two years, Kering has lost more than 60% of its market value. Its debt has ballooned past $11.5 billion. Gucci (once its money-printing machine) is sputtering. And now, the company just made a move no one expected - one that has nothing to do with handbags and everything to do with horsepower. Kering confirmed on Monday that François-Henri Pinault will step down as CEO after nearly 20 years and hand over leadership to current Renault CEO Luca de Meo. De Meo, who officially leaves Renault on July 15, will take over as Kering CEO on September 15, pending shareholder approval. While best known as a "car guy" with stints leading Fiat, SEAT, Volkswagen, and most recently Renault, de Meo has a strong reputation for brand building and strategic turnarounds. Related: Why now may be the best time to buy a luxury watch He's credited with the revival of the Fiat 500 and the Renault 5, and is known for his deep understanding of marketing and design. In a statement, Pinault said, "His experience at the helm of an international listed group, his sharp understanding of brands, and his sense of a strong and respectful corporate culture convinced me that he is the leader I was looking for." The message is clear: Kering doesn't want just another luxury exec. It wants a visionary who can rewrite the playbook. It sounds wild. But is it really? Fashion, like auto, is about design, scale, and timing. And Kering needs a Its traditional playbook just isn't working. Gucci's creative shifts haven't landed. Saint Laurent is steady, but not enough to carry the weight. Balenciaga's controversy fatigue lingers. Meanwhile, rival LVMH is lapping Kering in nearly every category. Enter de Meo. He's not a fashion insider, but that might be the point. Kering doesn't need another luxury lifer - it needs someone willing to make hard decisions and rip off Band-Aids.

De Meo is known for being strategic, brand-driven, and deeply interested in design - he reportedly has an affinity for Swiss watches and the luxury space. That gives him something rare: operational rigor and taste. If this shakeup works, it won't just reshape Kering. It could mark a new era of luxury leadership, where cultural relevance depends less on who you know in fashion, and more on whether you can actually build a brand people care about. For fans of Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, and the future of fashion, this could be the plot twist that changes everything.

France to hold next G7 summit in Evian spa town
Next year's summit of the Group of Seven powers will take place in Evian, the French spa town known for its eponymous mineral water, President Emmanuel Macron announced Tuesday. Macron made the announcement with a social media video as he took part in the 2025 summit in the Canadian Rockies resort of Kananaskis. Speaking afterward to reporters, Macron said that Evian and its surrounding region "have shown a real willingness and real commitment to hold this major international gathering." Evian-les-Bains, in the Alps near the border with Switzerland, gained fame starting in the 19th century for its natural spring water and became a high-end resort that drew royalty and celebrities. It will not be Evian's first time at the center of international diplomacy. In 1962, the Evian Accords ended the Algerian war and established the way for the northern African country's independence from France. The G7 summit rotates each year among one member of the club of major industrial democracies -- Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United States. France was last host of the G7 in 2019 when the summit took place in the southwestern beach resort of Biarritz. The United States will be host in 2027, offering President Donald Trump an opportunity to throw a major international summit in a locale of his choosing. The 2025 summit focused in part on Trump-related trade tensions and support for Ukraine, with President Volodymyr Zelensky among the invited guests, but was overshadowed by Israel's military campaign against Iran. vl-sct/bgs/md
