Macron hails ‘real progress’ on Ukraine after G7 leaders agree ‘new steps to put pressure’ on Russia – Europe live

Macron also talks about the continuing support for Ukraine on energy infrastructure and its fight to stop Russia’s shadow fleet. He says he is happy that the G7 ends with “such convergence” on Ukraine , which he hails as “real progress”. He then moves to other topics, including the situation in the Middle East, stressing the G7’s backing for Trump’s Iran deal, and to efforts to fight Ebola. I will keep monitoring for more Ukraine and Europe lines.
