G-7 primer: From COVID vaccines to the 'family photo,' takeaways from Day 1 of the summit

FALMOUTH, England – Leaders from some of the world's wealthiest nations gathered Friday for their first in-person meetings since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. The Group of Seven summit in Cornwall, England, encompasses talks over globally distributing COVID-19 vaccines, tackling climate change and addressing shared security concerns, from cyberattacks to China's geopolitical rise.

On Thursday, President Joe Biden held a pre-summit meeting with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. They discussed the durability of U.S.-U.K. relationship, and Johnson sought to allay concerns in Washington over how Britain's exit from the European Union – Brexit – could impact a decades-old peace treaty in Northern Ireland.
