U.S. President Donald Trump arrived on Sunday in Kananaskis, Alberta, nestled within the Canadian Rocky Mountains, to join the leaders of some of the world’s largest economic powers for the Group of Seven (G7) summit.
The meeting of the seven nations is taking place amidst the growing conflict between Israel and Iran, with Trump’s trade war also expected to be a central focus, AP reports. Israel’s attacks on Iran and Tehran’s retaliation, which seemingly caught many world leaders by surprise, are the latest sign of a more unstable world.
Trump recently opposed an Israeli plan to kill Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, a U.S. official told The Associated Press. This has been seen as an indicator of how far Israel is prepared to go.
