Trump won’t sign the G7 Israel-Iran statement
US President Donald Trump does not intend to sign the joint statement prepared by G7 leaders in Canada calling for a reduction in tensions between Israel and Iran.
1news.media informs that CNN reported this, citing a source familiar with the matter.
However, the draft statement prepared by European officials emphasizes that Israel has the right to self-defense and that Iran cannot obtain nuclear weapons.
A White House spokesman said in response to a question about Trump's plans for the joint statement:
"Trump will continue to work to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons."
