KANANASKIS, Alberta — As Russia was unleashing its deadliest attack on Ukraine’s capital in nearly a year, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy arrived in the Canadian Rocky Mountains early Tuesday hoping to meet with President Donald Trump and secure more support for Ukraine from the Group of 7 industrialized nations.

Instead, Trump left the global powers’ summit early, canceled his meeting with Zelenskyy, lamented Russia’s absence from the leaders’ get-together and rejected the idea of issuing a joint statement in support of Ukraine.

A single, brief reference to Ukraine in a summary of the talks’ conclusions, released by the host, Prime Minister Mark Carney of Canada, backed Trump’s peacemaking efforts and did not directly criticize Russia, though it said the leaders would explore ways to bring more pressure to bear on Moscow.

At a news conference at the end of the summit in Kananaskis, a scenic mountain resort in western Canada, on Tuesday evening, Carney said several of the Group of 7 nations would have preferred stronger language on Ukraine.

“There would be things that some of us, Canada included, would say above and beyond what was said in the chair summary,” he said, referring to his own statement.

Instead, Carney said, he had chosen to focus on securing a joint statement with the other leaders on the escalating crisis in the Middle East. “Given the exceptional, fast-moving situation in Iran, we concentrated on that,” he said.

Ukraine secured a $1.7 billion military support package from Canada at the summit but little else. Zelenskyy canceled a news conference scheduled for Tuesday evening. A spokesperson for Zelenskyy did not respond to requests for comment.

Trump had left Kananaskis on Monday night, saying that he needed to return to Washington to deal with the conflict between Israel and Iran. The leaders of the other six countries in the group — Canada, Britain, Germany, Italy, France and Japan — were left to welcome Zelenskyy, Mark Rutte, NATO’s secretary-general, and other world leaders.

Carney’s statement said the Group of 7 leaders had “expressed support for President Trump’s efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace in Ukraine” and were “resolute in exploring all options to maximize pressure on Russia, including financial sanctions.”

Addressing the Middle East conflict, the leaders called Iran “the principal source of regional instability and terror,” according to the statement, which added: “We urge that the resolution of the Iranian crisis leads to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza.”

Still, discord over the Middle East was hard to conceal.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz told a news outlet during the summit that Israel was doing Western powers’ “dirty work” by attacking Iran’s nuclear facilities. French President Emmanuel Macron warned Tuesday against using the conflict to force through regime change in Tehran.

“We don’t want Iran to get a nuclear weapon,” Macron told reporters. “But the biggest error would be to use military strikes to change the regime because it would then be chaos.”

Trump’s early departure slowed the pace on the second day of the summit, when leaders from nonmember countries joined the discussions.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum’s meeting with Trump, like Zelenskyy’s, was canceled, depriving her of an opportunity to discuss the crisis in the trade relationship between the two nations.

Carney held significant direct talks with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

They agreed to restore diplomatic relations. The two nations expelled each other’s top diplomats last year, part of the fallout from Canada’s accusation that India had sanctioned the assassination of a Sikh activist in Canada.
