Trump to attend G7 summit in France, White House official says

U.S. President Donald Trump will attend the G7 leaders' meeting in France in June, a White House official said ‌on Tuesday.

Trump ⁠wants ⁠to speak about linking U.S. aid with trade, promoting the adoption of U.S.-developed artificial intelligence tools, and reducing China's hold over critical mineral ⁠supply chains, ‌among other topics at the meeting, said ⁠Axios, which first reported the announcement.

France is the host of this year's G7, with a leaders' summit in the lakeside resort of Evian-les-Bains at the foot of ‌the French Alps scheduled for June 15-17.


Trump's relationship with many ⁠G7 members has grown increasingly strained over the war with Iran among other issues.
