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

Ugghh!

WASHINGTON, May 19 (Reuters) - 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.
