Emmanuel Macron will host a videoconference on Thursday including China to strengthen global economic "cooperation" ahead of the G7 summit.

Emmanuel Macron will hold a video conference on Thursday with China and other emerging nations to discuss strengthening global economic cooperation ahead of the G7 summit.

La guerre en Ukraine dominera les débats du G7 mardi 16 juin à Evian en présence de Volodymyr Zelensky . Au cœur des tractations : la capacité des alliés de Washington à convaincre Donald Trump , jusqu'ici réticent, à afficher son soutien au président ukrainien face à Vladimir Poutine .

Le Moyen-Orient sera lui aussi toujours très haut dans l'agenda des chefs d'État et de gouvernement de l'Allemagne, du Canada, des États-Unis , de la France, de l'Italie, du Japon et du Royaume-Uni. Ils se retrouveront pour un déjeuner de travail consacré aux crises de cette région secouée par la guerre américano-israélienne contre l' Iran . L'Égypte, les Émirats arabes unis et le Qatar - qui a contribué à la médiation ayant abouti à un accord entre Washington et Téhéran - y ont été conviés.

Le président ukrainien est arrivé mardi matin au sommet du G7 à Évian,où il a été accueilli par son homologue Emmanuel Macron dans les jardins de l'hôtel Royal, au bord du lac Léman, où le sommet s'est ouvert lundi soir. Les deux hommes ont échangé une accolade chaleureuse et marché ensemble jusqu'à l'entrée principale de l'hôtel, où ils ont posé devant la presse pour une poignée de mains, sans rien déclarer aux journalistes présents.

Ils se sont ensuite assis pour un entretien bilatéral, avant de retrouver le reste des dirigeants pour discuter des moyens de relancer des négociations avec Vladimir Poutine dans le but de mettre fin au conflit en Ukraine.

Le président Zelensky espère à cette occasion pouvoir s'entretenir seul à seul avec Donald Trump, présent mardi matin à la table des dirigeants du G7. La dernière rencontre entre les deux chefs d'Etat remonte à fin décembre dans la résidence du milliardaire américain à Mar-a-Lago, en Floride.

Le Royaume-Uni va fournir de l'uranium enrichi à l'Ukraine

À défaut d'annoncer une réunion bilatérale, le président des États-Unis, accaparé ces derniers mois par le conflit avec l'Iran, a assuré lundi avoir eu "une très bonne conversation avec le président (Volodymyr) Zelensky et le président (russe Vladimir) Poutine" dimanche. "Et je pense que nous pouvons peut-être faire quelque chose", a-t-il ajouté. Il a en outre déploré les 25 000 morts par mois dans ce conflit, "majoritairement des soldats". "Cela ne devrait pas se produire", a-t-il réagi.

Après de nouvelles frappes meurtrières menées lundi par la Russie qui ont fait au moins 11 morts et incendié une cathédrale historique à Kiev, Volodymyr Zelensky a demandé "davantage de pression sur l'agresseur et davantage de soutien à la défense aérienne de l'Ukraine".

Le président peut d'ores et déjà compter sur l'appui indéfectible des dirigeants européens et canadien, dont il verra certains en tête-à-tête. Le Royaume-Uni va fournir de l'uranium enrichi à l'Ukraine pour ses centrales nucléaires et imposer de nouvelles sanctions à la Russie, a ainsi annoncé le Premier ministre britannique Keir Starmer en amont de la session de travail.

Condamnant les "frappes barbares" de la Russie en Ukraine, Londres compte "monter d'un cran" en "étouffant les ressources qui alimentent la guerre de Poutine et en fournissant de l'énergie à l'Ukraine pour les hivers à venir", a déclaré Keir Starmer.

Avant même la tenue du sommet, une source gouvernementale italienne soulignait de son côté que l'Ukraine restait "un sujet sur lequel il y a la plus grande attention italienne".

La Russie commence à montrer des signes de faiblesse

Lundi, le président du conseil européen Antonio Costa, également présent à Evian, a estimé que "l'unité et la détermination du G7 sont essentielles pour contribuer à mettre fin à cette guerre et parvenir à une paix juste et durable". À cet égard, la participation du président Zelensky aux discussions au G7 est "particulièrement importante", a-t-il fait valoir.

De son côté, la présidente de la Commission européenne Ursula von der Leyen a salué l'Ukraine qui "tient la ligne de front et regagne même partiellement du terrain". Elle a en outre loué la capacité de Kiev de frapper des cibles stratégiques "au cœur même de la Russie".

Depuis le début du conflit en février 2022, l'Ukraine a opéré un virage stratégique en devenant un acteur majeur de l'industrie de défense, notamment via sa production de drones, mais continue d'avoir cruellement besoin du soutien occidental.

Selon les Européens, la Russie, sous pression des sanctions internationales, commence, e…
