Finance ministers and officials from G7 economies gathered in Paris on Tuesday for a second day of high-level economic talks. Images showed leaders arriving for a family photo alongside flags representing G7 nations and the European Union.
Among those attending were French Finance Minister Roland Lescure and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
Discussions took place against the backdrop of rising global tensions linked to the Iran conflict, US tariffs and disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz.
Oil prices, artificial intelligence-related cyber threats and access to critical minerals were also expected to be discussed during the meetings.
