The Heat: G7 Summit

The Heat

U.S. trade disputes with the European Union and Canada take center stage at the G7 Summit in Charlevoix, Canada.

It’s the first time world leaders are meeting face-to-face with U.S. President Trump after he imposed steep tariffs on their steel and aluminum industries.

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau calls the tariffs insulting and unacceptable. French President Emmanuel Macron calls them unlawful and a mistake. But the U.S. President is not backing down.
