President Donald Trump to Return to Washington, D.C. Early from G7 Summit Amid Middle East Crisis
U.S. President Donald Trump is returning to Washington, D.C. tonight, cutting short his participation in the G7 Summit in Canada due to urgent developments in the Middle East.
The President had a productive day at the summit, which included the signing of a landmark bilateral trade agreement with United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer—marking a significant advancement in U.S.-U.K. economic relations.
Despite the progress made at the G7, White House officials confirmed that President Trump will depart Canada following a scheduled dinner with fellow Heads of State this evening, in order to “attend to many important matters” related to growing tensions in the Middle East.
Speaking from the summit, President Trump issued a strong statement regarding the situation with Iran, criticizing the nation’s leadership for failing to agree to a proposed deal aimed at curbing its nuclear ambitions.
“Iran should have signed the deal I told them to sign,” President Trump said. “What a shame, and a waste of human life. Simply stated: Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I’ve said it over and over again.”
In a dramatic message aimed at the international community, Trump added: “Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran.”
While the specifics of the situation remain undisclosed, the President’s remarks suggest heightened concern over Iran’s nuclear program and the potential for military escalation in the region. His comments signal a call for swift and decisive global attention.
National security briefings are expected upon the President’s return to Washington, where he will lead crisis response efforts alongside military and intelligence officials.
The White House has not yet commented on whether additional sanctions, diplomatic measures, or military actions are under consideration, but emphasized that President Trump remains committed to preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.
As the international community closely monitors the unfolding developments, officials are urging calm while reiterating their support for diplomatic solutions.
