Tillerson, G7 ministers look to pressure Russia to reconsider Assad support


Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, along with six other Group of Seven foreign ministers, aim to send Russia a “clear and coordinated message” in the wake of the U.S.’ response to a gas attack that left scores dead. The U.S. received broad support from Europe after the airstrikes. Italian Foreign Minister Angelino Alfano, who is hosting the meeting, said the missile strike contributed to a “renewed harmony” between the U.S. and its partners ahead of the first meeting of G-7 foreign ministers since President Trump took office. McMaster said in an interview on “Fox News Sunday” that Russia should re-evaluate its support for Assad. Tillerson is expected to meet with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov after the G-7 meeting.
