President Trump is attending the dinner with European leaders at the onset of the G-7 summit this week, amid an escalating trade war with China and days of bashing American allies. The G-7, which is being held in France, includes the U.S. as well as Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom.
Mr. Trump had lunch with French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday and held an impromptu pool spray. Macron said topics at the summit would include Iran, the economy, and climate. Speaking to reporters, Mr. Trump highlighted the "special relationship" between the U.S. and France.
After the lunch, Mr. Trump tweeted that "many good things are happening for both of our countries." He initially tagged a parody account instead of Macron in his tweet, although he later corrected it with a new tweet tagging the real Macron.
