G7 ministers in Paris weigh Trump's post-midterm course

boursorama.com (French) —

G7 foreign ministers meet in Paris on Monday to assess whether Donald Trump's midterm election defeat will change his approach to Ukraine, the Middle East, and traditional allies, according to four G7 diplomats. Trump's Republican Party lost control of both Congressional chambers to Democrats in last week's elections, potentially limiting White House maneuvering, though diplomats caution against expecting a return to traditional multilateralism since Trump retains control of foreign policy. The meeting, moved from Marseille to Paris, marks the first gathering since the midterms between US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and G7 counterparts, with Ukraine as the main topic ahead of trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi.
