Not Impressed
Trump said that other Nations were treating America like their own financial base.
“Just another #G7 where other Countries expect America will always be their bank. The President made it clear today. No more,” he wrote.
The President was clearly upset by what he termed a one sided situation.
“We’re like the piggy bank that everybody is robbing,” Trump said. “And that ends.”
Trump who asked that Russia be allowed to re-enter the G7 Summit placed much of the blame on former President Barack Obama.
“Crimea was let go during the Obama administration, and, you know, Obama can say all he wants, but he allowed Russia to take Crimea. I might have had a very different” response, Trump said.
Trump said “something happened awhile ago where Russia is no longer in,” he said. “I think it would be good to have Russia back in.”
However Britain and Canada weren’t impressed with the idea and refused the suggestion. They said Russia would have to make many changes before any consideration would be given.
Democrats Chuck Schumer criticized Trump’s approach at the summit.
He tweeted, “Are we executing Putin’s diplomatic and national security strategy or AMERICA’s diplomatic and national security strategy? After the last few days, it’s hard to tell.”
One of the biggest issues raised by the leaders attending the summit was Trump’s temper, they claimed he needed to cool down.
