US Secretary of State Antony Blinken shifted his intense diplomacy on the Israel-Hamas war to Asia on Tuesday with an appeal to the Group of Seven major industrial democracies to forge a consensus on how to handle the crisis.
As he and his G7 counterparts began two days of talks in Japan, Blinken said it was vitally important that the group show unity as it has on Russia's war in Ukraine and other key issues and prevent existing differences on Gaza from deepening .
" This is also a very important moment for the G7 to come together in the face of this crisis and speak, as we do, with a clear voice ," Blinken told Japanese Foreign Minister Yoko Kamikawa.
The devastating month-long conflict in Gaza and efforts to alleviate the dire humanitarian impacts of Israel's response to the deadly October 7 Hamas attack will be the main focus of the meeting.
However, with the Russia-Ukraine war, fears that North Korea may be preparing a new nuclear test and concerns about China's growing global assertiveness, it is far from the only crisis on the agenda.
