US President Donald Trump left the Group of Seven leaders meeting in Canada early to deal with the Israel-Iran conflict, but played down the chances of a ceasefire.
On Tuesday morning, he returned to Washington and criticized French President Emmanuel Macron for saying the move was possibly a sign he was working on a truce. “Wrong!,” Trump said in reference to Macron on Truth Social. “He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington, but it certainly has nothing to do with a Cease Fire. Much bigger than that. Stay Tuned!” Trump hasn’t clearly spelled out his next steps as he returns to the US capital. Israel and Iran continue to strike on one another.
Today’s guests: Jim Reid, Deutsche Bank Head of Global Macro and Thematic Research, Nicholas Hopton, Middle East Association Director General and former UK Ambassador to Iran, Andy Cronin, Avolon CEO.
