Trump to Discuss Iran Deal, Meet Middle East Partners at G7 Summit in France
President Trump plans to meet with Middle East allies at the G7 summit and says he will sign a deal with Iran on Sunday to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet with Middle East partners on the sidelines of the G7 summit of leading industrialized nations taking place in France next week, according to U.S. officials.
Trump announced he will sign a deal with Iran on Sunday to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping waterway. The president indicated he plans to discuss demining efforts in the strait with allied nations during the G7 meetings. Iran has expressed caution about the exact timing of any potential agreement.
In addition to Middle East discussions, Trump will attend a session focused on Ukraine during the summit. Following the G7 proceedings, Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron are scheduled to meet for dinner at the Palace of Versailles.
The summit agenda also includes bilateral trade discussions between the United States and India, though U.S. officials indicate no immediate deal is expected. Separately, Bloomberg reported that the U.S. wants to avoid requiring a congressional vote on trade agreements, according to spokesman Jay Carney.
The G7 summit brings together leaders from the world's major industrialized economies to discuss pressing international issues and coordinate policy responses.
