European G7 bloc: unity under pressure
France, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom share the assessment that the summit's agenda has been captured by Washington, that Zelensky is relegated to a collective session, and that the transatlantic fracture is documented.

Internal divergences remain: Rome relies on its privileged access to Trump, Berlin advocates for strategic autonomy, London is weakened by an internal defense crisis, and Paris organizes the summit while admitting it cannot constrain Washington.
