The G7 agreed to set up what is being viewed as an alternative to China's belt and road initiative - an infrastructure strategy increasing Beijing's economic and political influence across the world. The G7 plan aims to provide high quality financing for infrastructure such as railways in Africa and wind farms in Asia in order to propel global green economic growth.Human rights issues in Hong Kong and Xinjiang were highlighted in the summit's communique.

The prime minister and EU leaders agreed to continue talking amid the ongoing dispute over post-Brexit arrangements for Northern Ireland. US President Joe Biden also , despite reports the UK had recently received a"demarche" - a formal diplomatic protest - from the US over the dispute about the Northern Ireland Protocol.Number 10 was keen to stress Mr Johnson did not see this weekend's summit as the forum to agree solutions to the Brexit dispute. Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron denied he had questioned the"territorial integrity" of the UK in bilateral talks with the prime minister.
