During a dinner in the coastal city of Biarritz, France, G7 leaders exchanged views on many issues, including Iran’s nuclear program and Amazon forest fires.
The leaders expressed concerns over US President Donald Trump’s attempt to change international agreements to serve American interests, especially the withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal.
President Trump said he hopes to meet again with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to push up denuclearization negotiations, despite Pyongyang's recent weapon tests. He tweeted that the G7 meeting is going well and "will make progress".
