EDITOR—The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, at the G7 summit opposed an equal dialogue between Russia and Ukraine. “Ukraine most of all wants peace, but, of course, a just peace,” von der Leyen said. According to her, “peace negotiations that equalize the aggressor and the victim must be rejected,” and Zelensky’s “peace formula” must be supported. On Friday morning, he took the G7 leaders and their spouses to visit the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, where they laid wreaths at the cenotaph and planted trees in the drizzling rain. Many among the Japanese public, however, have scolded Kishida for seeking his own political interests in the name of the city once devastated by a U.S. atomic bombing during World War II.

ERIC ZUESSE—Is RFK Jr. denying that Eisenhower and Truman had established the MIC, and that it thrived from what both of those Presidents had done? No. He’s instead saying that Ike warned America about the MIC just three days before leaving office. Why did Eisenhower do that? I’ve seen lots of evidence that he did it because he knew full well that it would turn out to have been a curse to the entire world and he didn’t want to be blamed for having done so much in order to get it established.
