The Group of Seven (G7) nations are working towards a unified stance on the International Criminal Court's (ICC) recent arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and others, according to Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani.
During a two-day meeting in Fiuggi, Tajani emphasised the need for cohesion and hinted at including the issue in the final communiqué.
