They have realized that no other plan remains to them!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Chancellor Friedrich Merz handed the president a soccer jersey with the number forty-seven on Tuesday morning, it was a gesture of the kind a foreign statesman might have made during Trump\u2019s first term, flattering and conciliatory, calculated entirely to please the other side. Only this time, behind Merz stood a bitter period in which he and other European leaders had condemned the war in Iran and in doing so provoked Trump into threatening to withdraw part of the American troops from the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Europe\u2019s alliance with the United States may still have been hanging in the balance, yet on the first full day of the summit in the Alpine spa town, the leaders showed that they remained willing to be polite. For all the quarrels of the past year, they seem to have reached the conclusion that the best way to deal with a stubborn president is to court him, especially because they still need him on sensitive matters such as the war in Ukraine. We are on the same team, Merz wrote on social media and offered belated birthday wishes for his eightieth birthday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"360\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 648 \/ 360;\" width=\"648\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/g7trumgeneva382.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just a week ago, such words would have sounded unlikely. The dispute over Iran and Trump\u2019s threat to annex Greenland, along with his constant criticism of the heart of Europe, had convinced some that America was no longer an ally and, in certain cases, even a danger. Now, however, at least the outline of peace with Iran exists, and Europe\u2019s leadership is returning to flattery. This is how diplomacy delivers results, said Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, congratulating Trump on the framework agreement that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz and lower oil prices and perhaps, in the end, even put an end to Iran\u2019s pursuit of a bomb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The positive mood was hardly surprising. Even without an agreement, analysts said, the other six members of the Group of Seven, representing the advanced industrial economies, would have worked to prevent the meeting from collapsing into conflict. Quietly, said Jeremy Shapiro of the European Council on Foreign Relations, a think tank with offices in Berlin and London, Europeans had realized that they could not simply wait out Trump and that something fundamental had changed in transatlantic relations. Yet the rupture, he added, left them with no alternative plan, and so they had to be cordial toward Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump complicated the calculation by announcing his agreement on the eve of the summit. If a final agreement between the United States and Iran were to emerge, which remains a very large if given all the uncertainties, it would provide relief for European economies suffering from disrupted oil and gas supplies. Three months of hostility had placed Europe\u2019s leaders in an almost impossible position, squeezed between a president who criticized them for insufficient support while simultaneously dismissing their possible contribution, and domestic populations that largely oppose the war and are increasingly frustrated by its economic consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Macron and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said that once the ceasefire holds, they would quickly send military equipment to help secure passage through the Strait of Hormuz. Where they had capabilities, with mine clearing being the obvious example, they wanted coordinated action with the United States and others, Starmer said, in order to reopen the strait as quickly as possible. Macron, the host, set the tone for the diplomacy and invited Trump to dinner at Versailles on Wednesday, in the palace of the French kings, to mark the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of American independence. It came from the same page of his playbook as during Trump\u2019s first term, when he invited him to a military parade on the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es. Once again the approach appeared successful because Trump, whose preference for buildings filled with gold is well known, spoke enthusiastically about Versailles\u2019 gilded decoration. He said he had planned to leave that afternoon, but then the French president, a very nice man, invited him to dinner at Versailles. Versailles is not gold leaf, Trump said. Versailles is the real thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However courteous the exchanges appeared, there was little indication they had changed Trump\u2019s position on Ukraine. This is not America\u2019s war, he repeated. We have nothing to do with it except selling weapons, and we are thousands of miles away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beneath the courtesy, more subtle fractures appeared. Trump did not meet privately with Starmer, leading the British prime minister to insist that he had not been slighted. By contrast, Trump met separately with the rulers of the Emirates and Qatar, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan and Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, thanking them for their support during the Iran conflict with a warmth that seemed absent from his meetings with Europeans. Secretary of State Marco Rubio also attended the meeting with the Emirati ruler. When Sheikh Mohamed responded almost inaudibly, Trump joked that only a man of such wealth could speak so quietly and still command the room. He praised Sheikh Tamim for his courage and for Qatar\u2019s billions in investment in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"354\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/batch_kaizennewsday-2026-06-17T071430.265.webp?resize=640%2C354&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39047\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/batch_kaizennewsday-2026-06-17T071430.265.webp?w=905&amp;ssl=1 905w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/batch_kaizennewsday-2026-06-17T071430.265.webp?resize=18%2C10&amp;ssl=1 18w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/batch_kaizennewsday-2026-06-17T071430.265.webp?resize=300%2C166&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/batch_kaizennewsday-2026-06-17T071430.265.webp?resize=768%2C424&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><strong>G7 - And There They All Stand<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump spent much of the day defending his agreement with Iran, the details of which he still had not released. Reports that the United States had committed three hundred billion dollars of investment in Iran were rejected by him. We are not investing money and are not obligated to do so, he said. The agreement includes a promise that Iran will never possess a nuclear weapon, something Iran has long publicly stated, and he warned that unimaginable consequences would follow if that changed. That, he said, was why he became involved and why he agreed to sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video height=\"600\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 480 \/ 600;\" width=\"480\" controls src=\"https:\/\/kaizen-blog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/trumpzelg7back.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is striking, in the opinion expressed here, how calmly and with how much dignity Zelenskyy appears in moments like these, even when he is demonstratively given the cold shoulder. Real strength is not shown by visibly rejecting others but by taking responsibility and showing respect. Something the author argues Trump will never learn.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That was the first day of Europe\u2019s return to court. Independence, once won from kings, is celebrated in the palace of kings while paying tribute to a man who sees the gold there as the real thing. Warmth was reserved for those who pay, coolness for old friends, and the jersey bearing forty-seven became the most honest language of the day because it named the number that mattered. Those with no other plan call their powerlessness diplomacy and their flattery reason. But gifts do not resolve disputes, the war in Ukraine does not become America\u2019s responsibility, and the threat of troop withdrawal remains. At the end of a courteous day stands the old lesson that a court remains peaceful only as long as the ruler feels flattered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>This spectacle leaves us uneasy. Those who respond to Trump\u2019s behavior with flattery have already lost, no matter how brightly they imagine the future. Courtship does not buy respect, it buys delay, and the ruler accepts the gift while keeping the contempt. If we worked like the European Union, with jerseys and court dinners, most of those detained by ICE would still be in prison today, innocent and forgotten. We did not help them by courting those in power but by opposing them, with commitment and without fear. Courtesy is not a principle, and those who bow before power eventually lose both, their dignity and the cause for which they gave it up.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"kz-ad-root\">\n<style>\n@import url('https:\/\/fonts.googleapis.com\/css2?family=Bebas+Neue&family=Source+Sans+3:ital,wght@0,400;0,700;1,400&display=swap');\n\n.kz-ad-root { \n  margin: 28px 0; \n}\n\n.kz-ad {\n  font-family: 'Source Sans 3', 'Segoe UI', Arial, sans-serif;\n  background: #ffffff;\n  border: 1px solid #DEDEDE;\n  border-radius: 4px;\n  overflow: hidden;\n  max-width: 100%;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n}\n\n.kz-top {\n  background: #111111;\n  padding: 12px 18px;\n  display: flex;\n  align-items: center;\n  gap: 10px;\n}\n\n.kz-eyebrow-line {\n  width: 22px;\n  height: 2px;\n  background: #007BFF;\n  flex-shrink: 0;\n}\n\n.kz-badge {\n  font-size: 13px;\n  font-weight: 700;\n  letter-spacing: 0.14em;\n  text-transform: uppercase;\n  color: #ffffff;\n}\n\n.kz-inner {\n  padding: 22px 18px 20px;\n}\n\n.kz-headline {\n  font-family: 'Bebas Neue', Impact, Arial Narrow, sans-serif;\n  font-size: 2.4rem;\n  font-weight: 400;\n  color: #111111;\n  line-height: 1.1;\n  margin: 0 0 16px 0;\n  letter-spacing: 0.03em;\n}\n\n.kz-text {\n  font-size: 1.05rem;\n  line-height: 1.75;\n  color: #333333;\n  margin: 0 0 16px 0;\n}\n\n.kz-callout {\n  font-size: 1.05rem;\n  line-height: 1.65;\n  color: #111111;\n  font-weight: 700;\n  border-left: 3px solid #007BFF;\n  padding: 12px 14px;\n  margin: 0 0 22px 0;\n  background: #F7FBFF;\n  border-radius: 0 2px 2px 0;\n}\n\n.kz-btn {\n  display: flex;\n  align-items: center;\n  justify-content: center;\n  gap: 9px;\n  width: 100%;\n  box-sizing: border-box;\n  padding: 16px 20px;\n  background: #007BFF;\n  color: #ffffff;\n  font-family: 'Source Sans 3', sans-serif;\n  font-weight: 700;\n  font-size: 1.1rem;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  border-radius: 2px;\n  transition: background 0.18s, transform 0.15s;\n  letter-spacing: 0.03em;\n  text-transform: uppercase;\n  margin-bottom: 16px;\n}\n\n.kz-btn:hover {\n  background: #005ED9;\n  transform: translateY(-1px);\n}\n\n.kz-btn svg { \n  transition: transform 0.18s; \n}\n\n.kz-btn:hover svg { \n  transform: translateX(3px); \n}\n\n.kz-footer {\n  display: flex;\n  align-items: center;\n  justify-content: center;\n  padding-bottom: 2px;\n}\n\n.kz-more {\n  font-size: 1.05rem;\n  color: #444444;\n  text-decoration: none;\n  transition: color 0.15s, border-color 0.15s;\n  font-style: italic;\n  border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC;\n  padding-bottom: 2px;\n}\n\n.kz-more:hover { \n  color: #007BFF; \n  border-color: #007BFF; \n}\n\n@media (min-width: 540px) {\n\n  .kz-inner { \n    padding: 24px 26px 22px; \n  }\n\n  .kz-headline { \n    font-size: 2.8rem; \n  }\n\n  .kz-btn {\n    width: auto;\n    display: inline-flex;\n    padding: 15px 36px;\n  }\n\n  .kz-btn-wrap {\n    display: flex;\n    align-items: center;\n    justify-content: space-between;\n    gap: 16px;\n  }\n\n  .kz-footer {\n    justify-content: flex-end;\n  }\n}\n<\/style>\n\n<div class=\"kz-ad\">\n\n<div class=\"kz-top\">\n<div class=\"kz-eyebrow-line\"><\/div>\n\n<span class=\"kz-badge\">\nIndependent Journalism \u00b7 Kaizen Blog\n<\/span>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"kz-inner\">\n\n<h3 class=\"kz-headline\">\nWe are where,<br>it hurts\n<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"kz-text\">\nWe do not sit comfortably indoors writing about the world - and we do not stop once the writing ends.
