European leaders at the G7 summit in Canada are working to facilitate Iran's return to the negotiating table with the help of Gulf leaders acting as intermediaries. However, Iran is insisting on a joint ceasefire with Israel, a demand that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is resisting, while US President Donald Trump has yet to reveal his stance.

Iran sees the US as crucial in pressuring Israel, but Trump is seeking assurances that Iran will give up its right to enrich uranium. He is open to using Israel's attacks as leverage if needed.

When asked if he had received any signals from Iran about de-escalating the conflict, Trump suggested that he had. He mentioned that Iran is not winning the war with Israel and should re-engage in negotiations promptly.

Iran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, urged Trump to break away from Netanyahu, accusing the Israeli leader of sabotaging a potential deal between Iran and the US. He emphasized the need for Israel to cease its aggression for diplomacy to resume.

The United Arab Emirates, along with Oman, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, have been acting as intermediaries in the negotiations. Oman's Foreign Minister, Badr Albusaidi, has been encouraging Tehran to return to the negotiating table, pointing out the overwhelming military odds against Iran.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron have been communicating with UAE leaders, stressing the importance of de-escalation. They are warning Iran that concessions will be necessary for negotiations to progress.

European leaders are concerned about the uncertainty surrounding Iran's decision-making structure due to significant losses in military and intelligence leadership. There are fears of a potential regime change, Iran's breakup, and a prolonged conflict that could disrupt global trade and raise oil prices.

The G7 leaders are expected to issue a joint statement on the Iran-Israel crisis, debating whether to call for a ceasefire and reiterating opposition to Iran possessing nuclear weapons. Some members are considering criticizing Israel for disrupting US-Iran negotiations.

Japan's Prime Minister, Shigeru Ishiba, has condemned Israel's recent military actions against Iran, calling them unacceptable and regrettable amidst escalating tensions in the region.
