President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has arrived in France ahead of the Group of Seven (G7) summit, where world leaders are expected to discuss global security, economic stability, and ongoing geopolitical tensions.

The visit comes as Ukraine continues to seek stronger international support amid its prolonged conflict with Russia, with emphasis on military assistance, reconstruction funding, and diplomatic backing.

French officials confirmed that preparations are underway for high-level meetings involving key G7 leaders, focusing on coordinated responses to global crises and strengthening international alliances.

Zelensky is expected to hold bilateral talks with several leaders on the sidelines of the summit, with discussions likely to centre on defence cooperation and economic aid packages.

The G7 meeting brings together some of the world’s most influential economies, including the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Canada, and Japan.

Security and economic analysts say Ukraine’s participation highlights its continued push for sustained global engagement and support from Western allies.

France, as host, has reiterated its commitment to supporting Ukraine while also addressing broader issues such as global inflation, energy security, and regional conflicts.

The summit is expected to produce joint statements on international security and economic coordination following days of discussions.

Zelensky’s presence at the talks underscores the ongoing diplomatic efforts to maintain global attention on the conflict and its wider implications.

Further details are expected as meetings progress between participating world leaders.
