CANADA:
In a significant development that highlights global concern over escalating hostilities in the Middle East, the Group of Seven (G7) nations, currently meeting in Canada, issued a unified statement on Monday declaring that Iran must never be allowed to possess a nuclear weapon. The joint declaration also strongly supported Israel’s right to defend itself while calling for urgent steps to reduce regional tensions.
The move comes in the wake of Israel’s recent military offensive, dubbed Operation Rising Lion, targeting key Iranian nuclear and military installations. The G7 communiqué emphasized, “We affirm that Israel has a right to defend itself. We have been consistently clear that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon.”
The summit, overshadowed by the unfolding conflict, saw leaders from the world’s most influential economies urge a broader diplomatic resolution. “We urge that the resolution of the Iranian crisis leads to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza,” the statement added, reflecting global fears of a widening war.
US President Donald Trump, who made headlines for abruptly departing the summit a day earlier than scheduled, issued a stern warning to Tehran. “They have to make a deal,” Trump stated, referring to Iran’s inability to conclude a nuclear agreement within a crucial 60-day window before Israel launched its offensive.
In a dramatic appeal, Trump urged Tehran residents to “evacuate immediately” and hinted at behind-the-scenes diplomatic channels. “Iran’s leaders would like to talk,” he said, though he refused to elaborate on what might trigger direct US military intervention, adding, “I don’t want to talk about that.”
Even as Israeli strikes targeted multiple strategic sites, global intelligence reports suggest the Fordo uranium enrichment facility—one of Iran’s most fortified nuclear centers—remains undamaged, raising ongoing concerns for Western allies.
As diplomatic tension reaches a critical threshold, world leaders hope the G7’s unified stance can pave the way for meaningful dialogue and prevent a larger regional catastrophe.
