Prime Minister Mark Carney is heading to Evian-les-Bains in France for the G7 summit, a day after U.S. President Donald Trump announced an agreement was reached to end the conflict in Iran.

Trump announced the deal Sunday, adding that he authorized an end to the U.S. blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, but later said the strait wouldn’t open until Friday when the deal is officially signed.

While in Ireland over the weekend, Carney told Irish news outlet RTE that the war in Iran was “topic number one” at the G7, adding that the war in Ukraine is also a key issue.

The prime minister will meet today with President of the European Council Antonio Costa and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen before attending a working dinner on geopolitical and economic issues.

Trump is expected to attend this year’s summit as are other G7 leaders, with the leaders of Brazil, India, Kenya and South Korea expected to participate.

While it’s unknown whether Carney will meet with Trump in Evian, Canada-U.S. Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc and United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer are set to connect on the summit’s sidelines.
