Donald Trump disputes statements that G7 agreed to empower France's Macron to send a message to Iran
President of the European Council Donald Tusk, President Donald Trump, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson, participate in a G-7 Working Session on the Global Economy, Foreign Policy, and Security Affairs the G7 summit in Biarritz, France August 25, 2019.
Johnson, who is known more as a runner than a swimmer, took a dip in the Atlantic with Britain's ambassador to France. But his counterparts, including British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, whom he is set to meet Sunday, are trying to convince him to back off his trade war with China and other countries, which they see as contributing to the economic weakening.....bad Economic times, the worse the better, anything to make my Election more difficult to win.
Trump arrived in France just hours after escalating his trade war with China in a tit-for-tat battle between the world's two largest economies that has spooked financial markets.Trump up-ended last year's G7 summit in Canada, walking out of the meeting early and disassociating himself from the final communique having initially endorsed the document.
"I still hope that PM Johnson will not like to go down in history as Mr No Deal," said Tusk, who leads the political direction of the 28-nation European Union. A police helicopter circled overhead as dozens of protesters, some wearing face masks, taunted lines of police. "The last thing we need is confrontation with our best ally the United States," EU Council President Tusk said on Saturday while adding that the bloc would "respond in kind" to any new US tariffs.
