Trump at G7: President denies behind-the-scenes discord at summit

BIARRITZ, France – President Donald Trump denied reports Sunday of tension among world leaders at the G-7 summit in southwest France, insisting that he was having “good meetings” and that everyone was getting along well.

“From the moment we got here, we’ve been treated beautifully,” he said during a meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

But behind the scenes, there were signs of discord.

Trump aides complained to reporters that French President Emmanuel Macron had arranged the agenda to focus on issues such as climate change that would play well in his home country and make Trump look bad, given Trump’s decision to pull the U.S. out of an international climate accord.
