As the Iran-Israel conflict intensifies, Trump leaves the G7 summit as early as possible

U.S. President Donald Trump shortened his visit to Canada’s seven summits, and the White House said he must return to Washington to deal with the conflict between Iran and Israel.

“I have to come back early for obvious reasons,” Trump said, reporting that he directed the White House National Security Council to meet after returning.

U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth earlier announced “deployment of other capabilities” to the Middle East to enhance the Pentagon’s “defensive posture” in the region.

However, U.S. officials rejected the U.S. proposal to join Israel’s offensive action against Iran.

The White House stressed bitterly that Trump had a “good day” at the summit, saying it had accomplished a lot, including a trade agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom.

But the president’s press secretary said he left the gathering of world leaders in Kananaskis in the Canadian Rockies after dinner Monday night because of “what happened to the Middle East.” She did not elaborate on it.

This means that the U.S. president will miss a face-to-face meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, which is scheduled for the final day of the summit, which is Tuesday.

At a photo conference on Monday, Trump said it was important that he returned to Washington’s “big event.” His resignation was the fifth consecutive day between Israel and Iran.

Earlier, the president posted on social media what Iran should sign, and he proposed an agreement in the recent U.S.-Iran nuclear negotiations.

“In short, Iran cannot have nuclear weapons,” he wrote. “I said it over and over again!”

Trump also urged Iranians to “evacuate immediately” its capital, Tehran, a city of 17 million people, in his social media platform Truth Social. He did not provide any more details.

Shortly thereafter, Iranian media held an explosion and a large number of air defense fires in Tehran earlier on Tuesday. This is a few hours after Israel targeted Iran’s national broadcaster, forcing a host to flee the mid-line broadcast.

In Israel, after midnight, the air strike sirens crying in Tel Aviv, and the explosion was heard when the Iranian missile once again targeted the country.

World leaders at the G7 summit said they understand that Trump needs to leave as early as possible.

“If the United States can get a ceasefire, it’s a very good thing,” French President Emmanuel Macron said.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Trump’s withdrawal was “understandable” even as the two planned to meet on Tuesday to discuss tariffs.

The G7 faces an earlier division in terms of conflicts between Russia and Ukraine and between Israel and Iran.

According to CBS, a U.S. partner of the BBC, Trump is planning to reject a summit statement about the Iran-Israel conflict.

The draft calls for downgrades, including languages ​​concerning surveillance of Iran and urges both sides to protect civilians.

Trump also said at the summit that the former G8 expelled Russia from the group in 2014 was a “big mistake” after annexation of Crimea.

“Putin talks to me,” the U.S. president said. “He doesn’t talk to anyone else…he’s not happy about it.”

But some progress has been made as Trump and British Prime Minister Sir Keel Starmer sign a tariff agreement.

Trump told reporters that the UK is “very protected” by future import taxes. “Do you know why? Because I like them.”

On Monday, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Trump also saw bilateralism, after which Carney said a trade agreement could be reached between the two countries within 30 days to resolve import taxes on the sale tax.

This marks the second time Trump left the G7 summit as early as possible. In 2018, at a summit in Quebec, Trump left the party to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.

Since the air battle was launched last Thursday, Israel claimed surprise attacks on control of Iran’s airspace, which killed many senior military commanders and atomic scientists.

However, Israel does not seem to achieve its goal of destroying Iran’s nuclear development plan.

Military analysts say only the United States has bombers and sabotage bombs that can penetrate the deepest Iranian nuclear facilities, especially the Fudo nuclear facilities.

According to the Iranian Ministry of Health, the Israeli strike killed at least 224 people in Iran. In Israel, the government says at least 24 people have died.
