During the G-7 summit in Kananaskis, U.S. President Donald Trump departed abruptly, citing escalating Middle Eastern tensions that were central to discussions among leaders. He contradicted French President Macron's claim that his leave aimed for achieving a ceasefire, adamantly stating it was for larger reasons. Trump's aggressive stance towards Iran included urging Tehrani citizens to evacuate, even as he agreed to a G-7 statement promoting resolution and de-escalation. This was against a backdrop of increasing military action, including U.S. enhanced troop presence and Israel's attack on Iranian media facilities.
President Trump left the G-7 summit earlier than planned, citing rising tensions in the Middle East, an issue dominating discussions among world leaders.
Despite initially resisting, Trump ultimately endorsed a G-7 statement calling for de-escalation in the Middle East, contradicting earlier remarks.
