President Donald Trump is leaving the Group of Seven summit in Canada a day early, citing the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran. Before his departure Monday night, Trump posted a warning on social media: “Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!”
Speaking Monday after leaders gathered for a group photo, Trump said he’s leaving for “obvious reasons.”
“President Trump had a great day at the G7, even signing a major trade deal with the United Kingdom and Prime Minister Keir Starmer,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a post. “Much was accomplished, but because of what’s going on in the Middle East, President Trump will be leaving tonight after dinner with Heads of State.”
Israel and Iran exchanged more attacks on Monday.
