美国国务卿马尔科·卢比奥周五抵达法国，出席七国集团（G7）外长会议。在此次会议上，他将明确阐述美国在持续与伊朗战争中的优先事项。
会议前夕，其他成员国对这场战争采取了截然不同的态度。华盛顿的几乎所有盟友——英国、加拿大、法国、德国、意大利和日本——都对美以军事行动反应谨慎，拒绝参与进攻性行动，尽管他们谴责伊朗的行为。
卢比奥周四启程前在X平台发布的视频中表示：”我不是为法国、德国或日本工作……我想取悦的是美国人民。我为他们服务。”这一表态预示着他在谈判中将采取强硬立场。
这种分歧令唐纳德·特朗普总统感到不满，他一直施压盟友加大贡献，特别是在霍尔木兹海峡等关键海上航线的安全保障方面。尽管一些国家表示愿意支持防御或海上安全行动，但均未承诺参与直接军事打击。
卢比奥补充道：”美国不断被要求在战争中提供帮助，我们也确实这么做了。但当我们需要帮助时，北约却没有给出积极回应。有些领导人称伊朗问题不是欧洲的战争。可乌克兰也不是我们的战争，我们却比任何国家都投入更多。”
“如果伊朗停止威胁全球航运——这是公然违反国际法的行为——霍尔木兹海峡明天就能恢复畅通。所有重视国际法的国家都应该采取行动。”他在登机前往法国前强调。
这些言论为峰会定下基调，而此次峰会已因美欧在伊朗冲突应对策略上的分歧而加剧紧张。卢比奥将局势描述为”严峻的考验”：”伊朗与美国的战争已持续47年……他们在全球范围内杀害和袭击美国人。允许德黑兰获得核武器将给世界带来’不可接受的风险’。”
然而，在卢比奥抵达前，欧洲官员已展现出截然不同的立场。欧盟委员会副主席卡娅·卡拉斯周四在G7边会上表示：”我们需要退出战争，而非进一步升级，否则全球后果将不堪设想。”

“唯一可行的是外交解决方案——坐下来谈判找到出路。”她补充道。
卢比奥与卡拉斯言论的对比，凸显了会议的核心矛盾。美国官员表示，卢比奥此次将带来更广泛的议程，不仅限于伊朗问题。
据国务院发言人向福克斯新闻数字版透露（匿名背景），卢比奥将利用会议推进”美国核心利益”，讨论乌克兰和中东战争局势，推动”国际责任分担”及评估G7整体效能。美国还将强调海上安全，包括霍尔木兹海峡和红海的航行自由，同时敦促盟友在冲突地区和国际组织中承担更大责任。
欧洲官员则强调冲突的广泛风险。法国外长让-诺埃尔·巴罗特表示，G7讨论将以近期谴责伊朗行为的联合声明为基础，同时处理海上安全问题。

“讨论将重新审视G7层面已达成的立场……包括伊朗对海湾国家实施的无端攻击，我们已以最强烈措辞予以谴责。”巴罗特称，部长们还将聚焦全球航运路线安全。
卡拉斯同样强调这一全球视角：”世界各国都不同程度受到这场战争的影响……战争结束符合所有人的利益。”她补充指出，俄罗斯正帮助伊朗获取情报并提供无人机支持，将伊朗冲突与乌克兰战争联系起来。
据路透社报道，这种分歧已影响峰会公报制定，各国放弃统一最终公报以避免暴露裂痕。亨利杰克逊协会高级研究员巴拉克·塞纳尔分析：”欧洲批评特朗普的’极限施压’策略，却采取失败的外交手段，导致伊朗政权扩大恐怖网络并接近核门槛。这反映出欧洲缺乏在该地区的力量投射能力，尤其是在霍尔木兹海峡的安全保障上。”
“多年来对国防的投资不足和对美国的依赖，已造成欧洲对华盛顿的战略优先事项日益不满。”塞纳尔警告，”当美国更重视与以色列的关系而非北约时，联盟可能进一步分裂，乌克兰支持力度将减弱，欧洲面临更大经济压力。”
美国第一政策研究所首席研究员雅各布·奥利多特则指出：”西欧未能参与霍尔木兹海峡保障工作尤为恶劣，因为这些国家比我们更依赖它。”他认为，”史诗狂怒行动”的成功已唤醒中东伙伴铲除伊朗威胁的信心，”共同塑造更和平繁荣的地区”。

Rubio meets G7 ministers in France as US leads on Iran — allies under fire for tepid response
Expert says Western Europe’s failure ‘to participate in securing the Strait of Hormuz is particularly egregious’

Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrived in France on Friday to attend the G7 foreign ministers meeting where he will deliver a clear message on U.S. priorities for the ongoing war with Iran.
In the days leading up to the meeting, other members have taken markedly different approaches to the war. Nearly all of Washington’s partners — Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan — have reacted cautiously to the U.S.-Israeli military campaign and declined to participate in offensive operations, even as they condemn Iranian actions.
Before departing on Thursday, Rubio signaled a defiant approach to the talks: “I don’t work for France or Germany or Japan… the people I’m interested in making happy are the people of the United States. I work for them,” he said in a video posted on X.
The divergence has drawn frustration from President Donald Trump, who has pressed allies to contribute more, particularly in securing key maritime routes such as the Strait of Hormuz. While some countries have signaled a willingness to support defensive or maritime security efforts, they have stopped short of joining direct military strikes.
“The U.S. is constantly asked to help in wars and we have. But when we had a need, it didn’t get positive responses from NATO. A couple leaders said that Iran was not Europe’s war. Well, Ukraine isn’t our war, yet we’ve contributed more to that fight than anyone,” Rubio added.
“The Strait of Hormuz could be open tomorrow if Iran stops threatening global shipping, which is an outrage and a violation of international law. For all these countries that care about international law, they should be doing something about it,” he said before boarding his plane to France.
The remarks set the tone for a summit already marked by growing friction between Washington and some of its closest allies over how to handle the Iran conflict. Rubio has framed the stakes in stark terms. “Iran has been at war with the United States for 47 years… Iran has been killing Americans and attacking Americans across this planet,” he said during a White House cabinet meeting, adding that allowing Tehran to obtain nuclear weapons would be “an unacceptable risk for the world.”
But even before Rubio arrived at the meeting, European officials were signaling a markedly different approach.
“We need to exit from the war, not escalate this further, because the consequences for everybody around the world are quite severe,” Vice President of the European Commission Kaja Kallas said during a briefing on the sidelines of the G7 on Thursday.

“It can only be a diplomatic solution… sit down and negotiate to have a way out,” she added.
The contrast between Rubio’s framing and Kallas’s message captures the core tension shaping the meeting.
U.S. officials say Rubio is heading into the talks with a broader agenda that goes beyond Iran.
According to a State Department spokesperson, who spoke to Fox News Digital on background, Rubio will use the meeting to “advance key U.S. interests” and push discussions on the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, as well as “international burden sharing” and the overall effectiveness of the G7.
The U.S. is also expected to emphasize maritime security, including freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and the Red Sea, while urging allies to take on a greater share of responsibilities in conflict zones and international organizations, the spokesperson said.

European officials have instead emphasized the broader risks of the conflict.
France’s foreign minister, Jean-Noël Barrot, said discussions at the G7 would build on a recent joint statement condemning Iran’s actions while also addressing maritime security concerns.
He said the “discussions will provide an opportunity to revisit positions already agreed at the G7 level… including the unjustifiable attacks carried out by Iran against Gulf countries… which we condemned in the strongest possible terms.”
Barrot added that ministers would also focus on securing global shipping routes.

“We will also have the opportunity to address maritime security and freedom of navigation… including an international mission… to ensure the smooth flow of maritime traffic in a strictly defensive posture, thereby helping to ease pressure on energy prices,” he said.
Kallas echoed that global framing. “All the countries in the world are one way or another affected by this war… it is in the interest of everybody that this war stops,” she said.

Her remarks also pointed to the interconnected nature of the crisis. “Russia is helping Iran with intelligence… and also supporting Iran now with drones,” she said, linking the Iran conflict to the war in Ukraine.
That uncertainty is already affecting the structure of the summit, with officials dropping plans for a unified final communiqué to avoid exposing divisions, Reuters reported.
Analysts say those differences reflect deeper structural tensions in the alliance. “Europe has criticized Donald Trump’s ‘maximum pressure’ strategy towards Iran while pursuing a failed diplomatic approach that has enabled the regime to expand its terrorist networks and edge closer to nuclear threshold status,” Barak Seener, senior research fellow at the Henry Jackson Society, told Fox News Digital.
“This reflects a lack of European capability to project power in the region, particularly in safeguarding the Strait of Hormuz.”

Seener added that years of reliance on Washington have left Europe increasingly exposed as the U.S. shifts its strategic priorities. “Years of underinvestment in defense and reliance on the United States have created a dependency that Washington increasingly views as a betrayal of the peace it has guaranteed Europe since the Second World War,” he said.
“With the U.S. placing greater value on its relationship with Israel than NATO, the result may be further erosion of the alliance, reduced support for Ukraine and rising economic pressure on Europe.”
He warned that the immediate test will come at the G7 itself. “Divisions over how to respond to Iran and to any U.S. request for support are likely to expose a deeper transatlantic split,” Seener said.
“Operation Epic Fury has showcased President Trump’s ability to assemble a coalition of allies to eliminate a common threat — in this case the Iranian regime — and stabilize international trade,” Jacob Olidort, chief research officer and director of American security at the America First Policy Institute, told Fox News Digital.

“The failure of Western Europe to participate in securing the Strait of Hormuz is particularly egregious because those countries depend on it more than we do,” he added.
“At the same time, the historic successes of Operation Epic Fury have awakened a new confidence in our Middle East partners to eradicate the threats from the Iranian regime and to work together to shape a more peaceful and prosperous region.”
