G-7 Leaders Seek ‘Resolution’ of Iranian Crisis in Statement

The Group of Seven leaders pushed for a de-escalation in the Middle East but didn’t call for an immediate end to the conflict between Israel and Iran in a statement that also affirmed Israel’s right to defend itself.

“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 leaders said in the statement.
