Group of Seven or Group of War?!

Last week, amidst the aggression of the barbaric and illegitimate Zionist regime against our sacred homeland, the leaders of the world’s industrial powers gathered in Canada’s Rocky Mountains for the Group of Seven (G7) summit to discuss the latest developments in international relations. This meeting took place while the world faces chronic and widespread crises, with the common denominator being the "brazen role of the West." 

The common thread in the foreign policy of the United States, Canada, Italy, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Japan is their absolute support for creating strategic crises across the globe. This pattern held true in the recent conflict between the vile Zionist regime and our beloved country. The security, logistical, and political cooperation between G7 members and Tel Aviv is undeniable, despite attempts to obscure it with media and propaganda considerations. 

As expected, the outcome of this summit was nothing more than providing artificial life support to the despised Zionist regime and openly encouraging it to commit further crimes against Iran. Undoubtedly, what brings G7 members together each year in response to various crises is not the pursuit of practical and genuine solutions to foster stability and peace in the international system. 

The interests of G7 countries lie in perpetuating the "meta-narrative of war" in the world, as these nations are inherently "crisis-dependent." Without a doubt, they will not send any signals to curb the savagery of the Zionist regime in the region or in its war against Iran, as they themselves are part of this cycle of violence and aggression. Past experiences confirm this claim.

The G7’s interventionist approach in the Gaza and Ukraine wars has consistently led to the reproduction of security-military crises in these battlegrounds. In the recent summit, G7 countries unsurprisingly took no action to restrain the desperate moves of the illegitimate Zionist regime in its confrontation with Iran. On the contrary, they demanded that Iran ensure the security of the aggressor (the vile Israeli regime)! 

Another point is that even in the matter of the U.S.-led economic war, no significant developments emerged from this summit. Despite some G7 leaders’ interest in direct talks with Donald Trump to dissuade him from imposing tariffs, bilateral negotiations with the U.S. president replaced multilateral discussions and collective decision-making. This approach preserved the economic and trade imbalances caused by the Trump administration’s tariff policies. In the matter of trade tariffs, the White House remains unwilling to show flexibility even toward its G7 allies! 

Perhaps the only outcome of this summit was a few photo ops among the leaders of these seven crisis-dependent nations in international relations—countries whose collaboration since the mid-20th century has never benefited the world’s nations. The best decision this group could make at their next summit would be to change their name from the Group of Seven to the Group of War. The world’s nations unanimously agree that this name would be fitting for such a group.
