G7 finance chiefs meet in Paris

G7 finance ministers and central bank governors have concluded a meeting in Paris focused on the economic fallout from the war in Iran.

The group expressed concern over rising energy costs and volatility in global markets, though they stopped short of announcing concrete new measures.

Discussions also touched on trade imbalances and the need to build AI capacity in developing nations.

While the ministers pledged continued cooperation, tensions remain over the impact of U.S. trade policies on global growth forecasts.
