G7 leaders agreed on Tuesday to intensify pressure on Russia to end more than four years of war against Ukraine, with US President Donald Trump saying Moscow should “make a deal”. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky joined the summit at the French resort of Evian-les-Bains, with Ukraine seen as holding up well on the battlefield but its cities still the target of deadly Russian attacks in a conflict that has now lasted longer than World War I.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. The summit of the G7 group of world powers notably brought Zelensky face-to-face with Trump, who has sought to reach out to Russian President Vladimir Putin but also showed signs of losing patience with Moscow. “Leaders decided today to increase the pressure on Russia through sanctions on gas and oil,” a French diplomatic source said after the talks. The leaders also agreed there “is a dynamic on the ground that benefits Ukraine”, added the source, who asked not to be named. Host President Emmanuel Macron has invited Zelensky to stay until the end of the three-day summit on Wednesday so that he can meet Trump and the other G7 leaders. ‘Russia not winning’ European leaders will be keen to remind Trump of the importance of pushing Russia to accept peace on Ukraine’s terms, and not pressure Kyiv into making concessions to Moscow. “Russia should make a deal” to end the war against Ukraine, Trump said after meeting Zelensky.
