US EditionAustralia’s Albanese at the G7
- Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese failed to meet US President Donald Trump at the G7 summit in Canada on Tuesday after Trump left the summit early due to escalating Middle East tensions and related security concerns.
- Trump announced his early departure via social media without informing Albanese, who had prepared extensively and expected the meeting to proceed.
- Despite missing Trump, Albanese held multiple cordial meetings with senior world leaders and US officials focusing on trade, tariffs, and the $368 billion AUKUS submarine pact.
- The Pentagon last week announced a review of the AUKUS pact aligned with the president's America First agenda, amid calls from the US administration for Australia to increase its defense spending, while UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer reaffirmed the pact's importance.
- The failed Albanese-Trump meeting highlighted challenges in Australia–US relations and prompted advice for Albanese to build broader partnerships with like-minded Western powers instead of focusing solely on Trump.
