After a confusing day of mixed signals on trade and Iran, President Donald Trump began his final round of talks at the Group of 7 summit on Monday eager to put a positive spin on his agenda.
He said he'd received word from China that its negotiators are ready to return to trade talks, even after his aides spent Sunday insisting Trump wants higher tariffs on Chinese products. And he shrugged off a surprise visit a day earlier from Iran's foreign minister, saying he knew it was happening and didn't interpret it as a sign of disrespect.
And he continued to trash the Iran nuclear deal, an accord that European leaders are working to salvage after Trump withdrew.Iran has been one of several points of contention for leaders here. Another has been climate change, the focus of a midday session later Monday. That will pit Trump against fellow leaders in a now-familiar dynamic. At the past two G7s, Trump has dashed his counterparts' attempts to put forward a show of unity on the issue.
