Last Update: June 11
including news about the
upcoming talks between
Trump and Kim Jong-un.
US president Trump's recently decreed import tariffs, his withdrawal from the Iranian nuclear deal and his position in the climate change discussion have raised much displeasure and resistance among other global leaders especially those from China, Canada and France.
His proposal to reintegrate Russia in the group of leading industrialized nations - now known as the G7 - has even more isolated him on the current meeting.
Russia was suspended from the group - then known as the G8 - in 2014 after the majority of member countries allied against Russia's annexation of Crimea, which Russia continues to hold.
Here's a news video provided by the Canadian TV station CTV and which is giving an idea of the tensions that exist between Trump and his host, the Canadian prime minister Trudeau.
The original article on the CTV website is "enriched" with tweets from "the real" Donald Trump.
At least, Trump can leave the G7 summit earlier to meet with someone of his own breed:
A reminder of the German proverbe "Pack schlägt sich; Pack verträgt sich" .....
Could have been created by the Chinese who invented Global Climate Change .....
特朗普奔赴“鸿门宴”美元将遭致命一击？
下周三大央行携两大峰会来袭！
While Trump is hurrying to a "Feast at Hong Gate", could
the US Dollar meet with its death from a single blow ?
Next Wednesday the [US] Central Bank will have to shoulder
two great summits !
Editor's Note:
In Chinese culture, the term Hong Men Yan ("Feast at Hong Gate") is used figuratively to refer to a trap or a situation ostensibly joyous but in fact treacherous. The historic event was about two rebel leaders rivalling for supremacy over China. One of them was planned to be assassinated at a "banquet of friendship".

While the Western Alliance of Industrialized Nations is crumbling at the current G7 summit, the Chinese-led Central Asian Bloc is even expanding with its new members India and Pakistan, both hailed at this weekend's summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the northern Chinese port of Qingdao. Furthermore, China's leader Xi Jin-Ping presented Russian President Vladimir Putin China's first Friendship Medal at an elaborate ceremony in Beijing.
The creation of the Central Asian Bloc is a result of China's One Belt One Road Initiative. The bloc was founded in 2001 and is dominated by China and Russia and also includes Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan.
