BANFF, Canada – The Group of Seven leaders have condemned Iran in what has become a rare joint statement after President Donald Trump departed the 2025 annual summit early to address the crisis unfolding between Israel and Iran in the Middle East.
"President Trump had a great day at the G7, even signing a major trade deal with the United Kingdom and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. 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." Leavitt wrote on X.
