2026 Evian Summit Goals Set and Met

Edited and compiled by Petrina van Nieuwstadt and Ilya Goheen,
Co-chairs, Summit Studies, G7 Research Group
June 18, 2026

The G7 2026 Evian Summit Goals Meet and Set Report is prepared by the G7 Research Group based at the University of Toronto. Using the Goals Set report published on June 13, 2026, it provides a qualitative assessment of how well these goals were achieved at the Evian Summit on June 15–17, 2026.

The Goals Set and Met Report includes averages by country and by issue to produce an overall evaluation score for the summit as a whole.

G7 Research Group analysts based the goals set by subject on priorities expressed in the Evian Summit agenda as published by France’s presidency and also priorities carried over from previous summits, as well as corresponding priorities expressed through global commitments such as the Paris Agreement on climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals. The goals by member are drawn from national policy addresses (i.e., State of the Union Address, budget speeches, etc.), speeches in public forums such as the United Nations General Assembly and the World Economic Forum, news releases and readouts, and other publicly available information. Five to seven priority goals have been identified and ranked for each subject and member (see Tables 1 and 2). They were expressed as closely as possible to the style of language used in G7 outcome documents, to facilitate the assessment of the goals met at Evian Summit, using the standard matching methodology developed and applied by the G7 Research Group.

Scores are not weighted and calculated according to the following scheme:

A+ 90% B+ 78% C+ 68% D+ 58% F 45%
A   85% B   75% C   65% D   55%   
A− 80% B− 70% C− 60% D− 50%

Macroeconomics: B

Goals Set: Behram Hathi; Goals Met: Behram Hathi

Score Goal Match
A+ We reaffirm our commitment to reducing global macroeconomic imbalances by addressing persistent and widened imbalances that threaten balanced global growth and financial stability. “We welcome the Global Convergence for Growth Summit convened by President Macron on June 11th 2026, with the participation of China. We reaffirm our common interest in converging with other large economies on the causes of large and persistent global imbalances and on the need to address them. We will continue these efforts within the G20 under the United States’ host year and in other relevant fora.”

“Excessive macroeconomic imbalances, crises and conflicts, lingering poverty and debt vulnerabilities inflate financial needs, disproportionally affecting the most vulnerable.”

“We note with concern that global imbalances have been persistent and have widened in recent years, creating risks for our shared objective of balanced global growth and financial stability.”

“We confirm the need to address these large and persistent imbalances, which is of common interest for both surplus and deficit economies.”

“We welcome the Global Convergence for Growth Summit which took place on 11 June 2026. We reaffirm our common interest in converging with other large economies on the causes of large and persistent global imbalances and on the need to address them. We will continue these efforts within the G20 under the United States host year and in other relevant fora.”

A+ We urge fiscal policy to be temporary, targeted and fiscally responsible. “We will cooperate on policy responses which should be temporary, targeted and fiscally responsible.”
C+ We urge central banks to commit to maintaining price stability and to maintain data-dependent monetary policy. “We recognize the importance of collaborating through relevant international organizations, such as the International Energy Agency (IEA), of close coordination between producer and consumer countries, and of cooperation with affected countries, including through the Partnership On Wide Energy and Resources Resilience Asia (POWERR Asia), to strengthen supply chain resilience and also with a view to safeguarding economic and price stability.

“We endeavour to promote macroeconomic stability, including by ensuring that the international monetary and financial system remains resilient, effective and well adapted to the evolving global economy.”

“We acknowledge the efforts of the International Monetary Fund including through its research, policy advice and surveillance, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, the G20 and the French Presidency’s G7 Academic Experts Group, to deepen our understanding of the drivers, main contributors and risks of growing and persistent imbalances, provide scenarios for adjustment and offer policy recommendations to promote rebalancing.”

A We express concern over the heightened risks to growth and inflation due to the energy shocks in the Middle East. “We commit to accelerate the diversification of energy supply routes in order to reduce global vulnerability to the Strait of Hormuz and to increase our energy stocks. We welcome the potential for Canada to deliver significant additional capacity to global markets in coming years.”

“While the global economy already faces the lingering effects of pre-existing shocks and structural shifts affecting global trade and investment, we acknowledge that global economic uncertainty has heightened risks to growth. Pressures on energy, agricultural inputs and fertilizers supply chains have increased, affecting industries, farmers and households everywhere, particularly in the most vulnerable countries. We recognize that a swift return to free and safe transit through the Strait of Hormuz without any form of charges, and a lasting resolution to the conflict, are imperative to mitigate these negative impacts and support more balanced, durable and resilient global growth.”

F We urge the continuation of support for the ERA loan implementation in Ukraine.

B− We aim to resolve global economic imbalances, including Chinese overcapacity, American trade deficits, and European underinvestment through collaboration with major and emerging economies and the creation of solutions and actionable follow-up mechanisms. “We note with concern that global imbalances have been persistent and have widened in recent years, creating risks for our shared objective of balanced global growth and financial stability. Since our last meeting in Kananaskis, our finance ministers, together with central bank governors, have initiated work to assess their drivers and the risks they create, and to develop options for addressing them.”

“We welcome the Global Convergence for Growth Summit which took place on 11 June 2026. We reaffirm our common interest in converging with other large economies on the causes of large and persistent global imbalances and on the need to address them. We will continue these efforts within the G20 under the United States host year and in other relevant fora.”

“We call for further strengthening of the ongoing surveillance of external imbalances within the International Monetary Fund’s bilateral and multilateral surveillance network, with more emphasis on forward-looking scenarios, and assessing the impacts on all economies, particularly emerging markets and developing economies. We also call on the International Monetary Fund and the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development to monitor and report on the contributions of domestic policy trajectories in major economies to global imbalances, in line with their respective expertise.”

A We aim to reform the current format of the developmental aid system to combat the fall in collective financing for healthcare, food security, and education. This new approach should facilitate better coordination between stakeholders and streamline official developmental aid processes while reforming financing structures to include developing countries as well as private actors. “We recognize the need to update the current international development system to ensure it fully meets the needs of future generations and current challenges”

“The development architecture has also become overly complex, resulting in a suboptimal use of resources. Excessive macroeconomic imbalances, crises and conflicts, lingering poverty and debt vulnerabilities inflate financial needs, disproportionally affecting the most vulnerable. Public resources continue to play a strategic role, yet they are insufficient alone to meet global development needs. We need to catalyse structured reforms to rationalize the development architecture and ensure its efficiency and impact”

“We recognize that the development of industrial capacity, including processing and recycling, necessary for diversification, requires the mobilization of public and private capital, including equity investments, guarantees and offtakes.”

“In light of supply chain disruptions, we task our ministers to work with and monitor international financial institutions and international organizations to evaluate the global impacts of access to essential inputs such as fertilizers and to coordinate support for countries in need, so as to address global food security”

“In countries which have limited access to non-concessional or private capital, we will invest in sectors of human development, including in health, education, early childhood development, nutrition and food systems. Where appropriate, we stand ready to support our partners in the development, adoption and implementation of their National Health Compacts and similar country-platform approaches.”

A+ We aim to diversify the supply chain of critical minerals and rare earths to ensure greater resilience and sovereignty. “We aim to significantly reduce our dependencies on a single supplier outside the G7 and partner countries for rare earths and permanent magnets to under 60 per cent by 2030 and continuing to decrease further over time, with an ambition to reach 50 per cent as soon as possible. For other critical minerals, we task the relevant ministers with setting a specific target for reducing these dependencies before the end of the year.”

“We commit to coordinating efforts within the G7 and with partner countries to establish and develop the necessary processing and industrial capacities for diversification of our critical minerals value chains, including by supporting local value creation and promoting innovation.”

We are also ready to consider extending to Ukraine the benefit of licenses to allow for an increase in Ukraine's military production.”

“We stress the importance of energy resilience, on the basis of the needs and priorities expressed by Ukrainian authorities. We agree to provide further support to get the country through next winter.”

“We commit to increase the pressure on the Russian war economy. In this context, we will strengthen our sanctions, including those on the oil and gas sectors. We consider this the right moment to proceed with additional measures, as President Trump has delivered a deal that we support in reopening the Strait of Hormuz”

A+ We aim to promote children’s development and enhance safeguards pertaining to children’s safety and online protection, notably with regards to the growing concerns of artificial intelligence and deepfakes. “We, the Leaders of the G7, are committed to providing a safe digital space for our minors, which include children and youth under 18, for their development, for their education and for their well-being.”

“While conversational artificial intelligence tools offer important opportunities for innovation, education and development, we recognize risks associated with children and youth’s use of conversational artificial intelligence systems, undermining their well-being and safety and reinforcing the need to build their critical skills to engage responsibly in digital space. It is important for providers to develop and apply safety settings by default for children and youth, including parental control tools and age assurance solutions, to make conversational artificial intelligence tools safer for children and youth, in a timely manner.”

“We remain strongly committed to prohibiting the generation, the manipulation and the distribution of child sexual abuse material and criminal activity related to non-consensual intimate imagery, including deepfakes particularly when they involve children and youth, in accordance with national circumstances and legal frameworks”

“Given the importance of helping children and youth to seamlessly distinguish authentic from synthetic content and to identify content provenance, we support ongoing efforts by the industry to strengthen the reliability, interoperability when feasible, effectiveness and robustness of their technical means. Digital service providers have a critical role to play in enhancing transparency through enabling an understanding of content provenance, promoting digital literacy and awareness to engage with digital technologies, media and information. We encourage continuous dialogue between G7 members’ governments, public authorities and digital service providers, as approaches to content transparency continue to be explored.”
