G7 summit in France ‘last moment’ to restore unity among world leaders | CBC News
The president of the European Council sounded an ominous warning for the G7 as leaders of the world’s major democracies began arriving Saturday in the French seaside resort of Biarritz for their annual summit.
Donald Tusk did not mince words about the state of discord among nations and whether there is enough political will to address the rise of authoritarian states, halt emerging trade wars and fight the disastrous effects of climate change.
“This may be the last moment to restore our political community,” said Tusk, the former prime minister of Poland who has headed the European Council since 2014.
