Leaders Should Ignore Trump Outbursts at G7 Summit: Former PM Chrétien

  • Mark Carney is hosting a three-day G7 summit starting Sunday in Kananaskis, Alberta, with leaders from major world economies including France, Germany, Japan, and the EU.
  • Tensions at the summit arise from global instability and disputes including Canada-India relations following the 2023 killing of Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia.
  • Former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien urged dignitaries to avoid engaging with U.S. President Donald Trump's unpredictable behavior and supported Carney's invitation to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi despite criticism.
  • Chrétien advised leaders not to react to President Trump’s attention-seeking antics at the G7 summit, suggesting that if Trump intends to cause a disturbance to gain media coverage, they should remain unbothered and continue with their usual discussions.
  • The summit may facilitate the signing of a bilateral agreement focused on economic cooperation and security collaboration between Canada and the U.S., while Canada aims to achieve NATO defense spending goals by early next year, highlighting a commitment to military readiness and diplomatic efforts.
