The G7 Summit Postponed To The End Of June
The White House on May 24
announced that the United States would postpone the World Leading Group of
Industrial Countries (G7), which takes place in Washington, DC, by the end of
June.
Earlier, US President
Donald Trump confirmed plans to hold the meeting in the form of face-to-face
meetings. Mr. Trump said the conference is likely to be conducted as
usual, mainly taking place at the White House and partly at Camp David,
Maryland.
On May 20, the US leader
also announced for the first time the G7 Summit, and called on partners from
the UK, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan to join the United States
conference.
As originally planned, the
conference will take place at Camp David next June. Due to the complicated
development of COVID-19, the plans have been adjusted.
Every year, the G7
organizes summits to discuss international economic cooperation. The
direction of the G7 is now thought to have a great impact on the world economic
recovery process after many months of being strongly affected by the COVID-19
epidemic.
However, G7 member states
are still cautious about the idea of holding a face-to-face
meeting, due to the fact that the COVID-19 epidemic has not shown signs of
strict control, nor is it concerned about the second wave of outbreaks.
