Trump removes U.S. from G-7 joint statement over escalating feud with Canada’s Trudeau

Saturday’s clashes ended a summit that was marked by repeated disagreements between the United States and its closest allies. The G-7, in its current form, consists of the United States, Canada, Britain, Germany, France, Italy and Japan. 

Trump cautioned other nations — those in the G-7 and around the world — that the size of the U.S. economy means other nations can’t win a trade war.

“We win that war a thousand times out of a thousand,” Trump said. 

記事を読みますと、貿易収支がアメリカにとって関心事のようです。G7で共同声明がでないのは珍しい。アメリカとカナダが対立するというのもあまり記憶にありません。アメリカの動向は、世界に大きな影響を与えますね。
