British Prime Minister Keir Starmer cut an isolated figure at the G7 summit in Évian-les-Bains (a resort town on the French shore of Lake Geneva), where he was visibly absent from an impromptu meeting between Donald Trump, Emmanuel Macron, and Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and held no scheduled bilateral with the US president — a sharp contrast to last year's summit, where the two leaders held a joint press conference to announce a trade deal. Starmer sought to highlight diplomatic wins, including a £210m energy support package for Ukraine, announced investments by French and Indian firms into British infrastructure expected to create over 1,000 jobs, and confirmation that a second UK-EU summit will take place on 22 July. The summit unfolded against a backdrop of domestic political pressure, with Starmer facing a potential leadership challenge if politician Andy Burnham wins a forthcoming parliamentary by-election and mounts a bid for the Labour Party leadership.
