Iran nuclear agreement discussed at G7 prompts new Middle East‑Europe geopolitical axis

U.S. President Donald Trump told the G7 meeting in Evian that an Iran nuclear agreement could be signed within days, calling it a “historic” deal that would bar Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. He said the text has already been sent to Israel and warned that non‑compliance would lead to renewed bombing.

Analysts note that the G7’s focus on the Iran deal is part of a broader strategic shift. Western leaders are linking the resolution of the Iran‑U.S. crisis with efforts to diversify energy and trade routes, reducing dependence on chokepoints such as Hormuz. New corridors are being promoted that run from the Persian Gulf through the Caucasus, Turkey, the Balkans and into the Adriatic, turning the region into a multi‑lane network for Asian‑European commerce and enhancing European energy security.
