Trump leaves G7 summit prematurely: Middle East crisis forces to return!
Lörrach, Deutschland - President Donald Trump caused a stir at the G7 summit in Canada by leaving the round early. The reason for his unexpected departure is the escalating crisis in the Middle East, especially the military conflicts between Israel and Iran. "I loved it," said Trump about the conversations, but also emphasized that for important political reasons he has to go back to Washington to take care of current affairs. His spokeswoman pointed out that the situation in the Middle East has the highest priority, which justifies preparations for his return, reports Verlagshaus-jaumann.de .
Originally Trump should have returned from Canada on Tuesday evening. But developments in the region force him to act faster. The war between Israel and Iran, which has escalated after a series of attacks and counterattacks on both sides, has pushed the G7 round into the background in the Kananaskis. Iran supposedly signals interest in negotiations despite the tense situation. Trump himself says that he was ready for talks about a solution and at the same time warned the residents of Tehran's upcoming conflicts. According to Tagesspiegel.de , Iran could arrange retaliation against US supports if Israel still proceeds.
Trump before geopolitical challenge
Trump's departure is viewed by many observers as a damper for the G7 round. The summit is considered a test to demonstrate agreement in a time when international problems are particularly pressing. European countries are pushing tougher measures against Russia, while Trump remains rather reserved and deals with its own decisions in the Middle East. "The exclusion of Russia from the G7 is a big mistake," he said at one of the sessions and attracted attention, such as Deutschlandfunk.de also reports of the political implications of the conflict, for example that Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with an order to arrive at the International Criminal Court is confronted what is causing a sensation internationally.
The military escalation also has an impact on the inviting G7 countries that strive to stick together in the tense topics. At this summit, the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj was also invited as a guest, which illustrates the diverse geopolitical challenges with which the participants are faced.
Overall, it can be said that the G7 countries are faced with a variety of questions, while Trump is already on the way back to the USA to focus on the threats in the Middle East. The coming days will show whether the invited countries can agree on uniform positions or whether the differences between the members continue to exist.
