US President Donald Trump is cutting short his visit to the G7 summit in Alberta amid escalating tensions between Israel and Iran. The White House confirmed his early departure, citing urgent developments in the Middle East and Trump's growing focus on Iran's nuclear threat.

According to Sheinbaum's official G7 schedule, the president will hold one-on-one talks with the heads of Canada, India and Germany on Tuesday.

The last time Canada hosted the meeting, US President Donald Trump torpedoed the gathering, calling his host 'dishonest & weak.'

A White House official said President Trump had decided not to sign onto a statement drafted for Group of 7 allies that urges restraint from both Israel and Iran, which have been trading attacks for days.

G7 leaders arrived in Kananaskis, Alberta, Canada, for three days of intense discussion, amid tension in the Middle East and alliance changes.

The news is about to be flooded with the latest from the Group of Seven as some of the world's most powerful leaders travel to the Canadian Rockies next week for high-level meetings on major issues.

In 2018, the president called for the group to embrace Russia and stormed out of the summit. Now he is seeking to shrink America’s military role abroad and embarking on a more expansive trade war.

As the leaders were scheduled to arrive Sunday hundreds of protesters from several different groups rallied in front of Calgary City Hall, with many carrying anti-Trump messages.
