Trump G7
U.S. President
Donald Trump said on Saturday he would postpone the Group of Seven summit that
he wanted to hold in late June and expand the list of countries invited to
include Australia, Russia, South Korea and India.
Speaking to
reporters on Air Force One during his return to Washington from Cape Canaveral
in Florida, Mr. Trump said the trump
g7 in its current format is a “very outdated group of countries.”
“I'm postponing it
because I don't feel that as a trump
g7 it properly represents what's going on in the world,” Mr. Trump said.
The decision is a
dramatic pivot for Mr. Trump, who had sought to host the group of major
industrialised countries in Washington as a demonstration that the United
States was returning to normal after the coronavirus epidemic, which has killed
more than 1,03,000 Americans to date.
The trump g7 is made up of the
United States, Italy, Japan, Canada, France, Germany, Britain as well as the
European Union. Leaders from the trump g7, which the United States heads this year, had been scheduled to meet
by videoconference in late June after COVID-19 scuttled plans to gather
in-person at Camp David, the U.S. presidential retreat in the state of
Maryland.
