US EditionCanada Invites Saudi Crown Prince to G7 Summit
- Canada has extended an invitation to Mohammed bin Salman, the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia, to participate in the G7 summit scheduled for June 15-17, 2025, in Kananaskis, Alberta.
- The invitation follows years of strained relations triggered by the 2018 murder of dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi and a diplomatic freeze lasting nearly five years.
- Leaders from the world’s largest economies will meet over three days amid global conflicts where Saudi Arabia plays a key diplomatic role, including ceasefire efforts in Gaza.
- Canada maintains sanctions on 17 Saudis linked to Khashoggi's killing, and while the invitation is confirmed, Saudi Arabia has not yet responded on bin Salman’s attendance.
- Canada's invitation reflects a strategic effort to engage Saudi Arabia diplomatically despite past tensions, testing its influence without compromising human rights concerns.
