Amidst the ongoing G-7 summit in Italy, US President Donald Trump has stated via his adviser that he currently has no plans on backing down with regards to his Russian sanctions, thereby quelling any speculations that the US government might be toning down its stance towards Russia. On the other hand, Trump has left a slew of confused allies as he still refuses to confirm whether he will be eradicating the 2015 Paris climate agreement altogether, a move which has been wholly supported by a lot of European nations. The European Council has already stated that this two-day G-7 Summit could possibly be the most challenging summit in years. The summit will have its culmination this coming Saturday.
