Headline: UNCAPTIONED: G7 Adopts 'Realpolitik' as Trump Derails Unified Russia Sanctions
Caption: G7 Adopts ‘Realpolitik’ as Trump Derails Unified Russia Sanctions. The 2025 G7 summit wrapped up without a joint statement on Ukraine, after U.S. President Donald Trump refused to back tougher language on Russia. Instead, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney issued a solo summary praising Trump’s efforts for peace while noting Ukraine’s ceasefire and urging Russia to follow. Behind the scenes, leaders worked carefully around Trump — avoiding confrontation, offering praise, and even gifts. Trump left early, missing a key meeting with Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy. With the U.S. hesitant, the EU and U.K. plan to press on with new sanctions, though how effective they’ll be without full G7 support remains unclear. Leaders called it “realpolitik” — a strategy of patience and survival, hoping the group can stay united long-term. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
