Diplomatic Summit in Japan Marks a Historic Turning Point

Top diplomats from G-7 countries are meeting in Japan to discuss global crises, including ending Russia's war in Ukraine, confronting China's aggression towards Taiwan, and luring North Korea back to nuclear disarmament talks. The talks will also address concerns over U.S. intelligence leaks and security worries after an explosive device was thrown at the Japanese leader during a campaign event. Japan hopes to use the G-7 to pursue a stronger unified front against Russian, Chinese, and North Korean aggression. The talks will be dominated by worries over Russia's threats to use tactical nuclear weapons, China's increasing belligerence towards Taiwan, and North Korea's record-setting run of illicit weapons tests.
