Wives and partners of the G7 leaders conducted their summit, which was somewhat more lively than the tense political discussions taking place within the halls of the Schloss Elmau alpine resort.

Britta Ernst, the wife of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, accompanied Carrie Johnson and others as they traversed Alpine meadows.

As Boris Johnson and his international colleagues met to discuss the war in Ukraine, his wife Carrie and the wives of other world leaders engaged in Nordic walking while conversing in the sunshine.

Britta Ernst, the wife of German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Amelie Derbaudrenghien, partner of EU Council President Michel, and Brigitte Macron, wife of French President Macron, accompanied her.

Ms. Ernst, a politician in her own right as Brandenburg’s education minister, led her guests on a Nordic walk with former professional skiers Christian Neureuther and Miriam Neureuther.

Christian Neureuther is a former World Cup alpine ski racer who participated for West Germany in three Winter Olympics. Miriam Neureuther is a former German biathlete and cross-country skier who won an Olympic silver medal in cross-country skiing and two biathlon world championship titles.

On Sunday, the party was observed happy and conversing while walking in the brisk, sunny weather.

In the meantime, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is likely to urge G7 leaders to do more to help Ukraine’s struggle against Russia today.

Mr. Zelenskyy will address world leaders via video link from Kyiv, including Boris Johnson and Joe Biden after he encouraged allies to be “partners, not watchers” in his nightly speech on Sunday.

Mr. Johnson will use Monday’s session in Germany to demand immediate action to help move grain supplies out of Ukraine since many nations across the globe are experiencing grain shortages.
