Trump Denies G7 Exit Tied to Israel-Iran Ceasefire

President Donald Trump left the G7 summit in Canada after just one day, denying claims by French President Emmanuel Macron that he departed to work on a ceasefire between Israel and Iran. Trump stated on his Truth Social platform that the reason for his early return to Washington is "much bigger than that" and dismissed Macron's suggestion as incorrect. Macron had mentioned that the U.S. had made an offer for a ceasefire and that France supported it, but Trump firmly rejected this, saying Macron "always gets it wrong." The president instructed the National Security Council to be ready in the Situation Room upon his arrival, amid escalating tensions and increased U.S. military presence in the Middle East due to concerns over potential Iranian attacks on U.S. bases in Iraq. Trump's press secretary confirmed the president's departure was related to developments in the Middle East but did not specify details, leaving the exact nature of the "much bigger" issue undisclosed. The situation reflects rising geopolitical tensions and uncertainty about U.S. strategic moves in the region.
