G7 leaders set for tough talks
Terrorism, migrants, Africa, climate change, trade on agenda
(ANSA) - Taormina, May 26 - Leaders of the Group of Seven
industrialized nations are in the Sicilian town of Taormina for
the first day of the G7 summit Friday.
The leaders will gather for the traditional 'family photo' at
an opening ceremony at the Sicilian resort's ancient Greek
theatre early on Friday.
Italian Premier Paolo Gentiloni, playing host at his first G7
summit as head of government, said Thursday that the talks will
not be "simple", amid differences between the European allies
and United States President Donald Trump's administration on
several issues, in particular on trade and climate change.
The fight against terrorism, migration and ties with Africa
are also on the agenda.
It is also the first G7 summit for Trump, British Prime
Minister Theresa May and French President Emmanuel Macron.
