President Donald Trump is calling for a seat at the G7 table for Russia.
Trump, arriving in Alberta, Canada, for a meeting of the leaders of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the U.S., said, “The G7 used to be the G8. Barack Obama and a person named [then-Canadian Prime Minister Justin] Trudeau didn’t want to have Russia in, and I would say that was a mistake, because I think you wouldn’t have a war right now if you had Russia in.”
Trump said removing Russia from the organization was a “big mistake.”
That ousting came from Obama and other world leaders after Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine a decade ago.
“This was a big mistake. You wouldn’t have that war. You know you have your enemy at the table, I don’t even consider, he wasn’t really an enemy at that time,” Trump said, according to a report at the Daily Signal.
