US President Donald Trump departed the summit venue in Kananaskis, Alberta, after attending a family dinner on Monday night, citing urgent matters in the Middle East.
His early exit meant he missed the Tuesday sessions where leaders from several non-G7 countries, including India, were in attendance. Leaders at the summit after Trump’s exit included Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi concluded his visit to Canada, where he participated in the G7 Summit and departed for Croatia.
