Donald Trump sparks divided reaction over group photo with G7 world leaders
United States President Donald Trump has sparked a divided reaction online over a group photo with world leaders at the G7 Summit on Tuesday (16 June).
Trump, alongside other members of the forum, met in Évian-les-Bains in France this week to discuss the wars in Iran and Ukraine as well as other major international issues.
He was joined by French President Emmanuel Macron, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, Italy's Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, Japan's Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, Germany's Chancellor Friedrich Merz and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
The Group of Seven wealthy nations gathered outside to pose for photos with the various world leaders, seen chatting with one another while Trump, who turned 80 on Sunday (14 June), wandered around the stage.

Take a look:
After catching light of the footage, people rushed to social media to share their reactions.
One X user claimed: "Trump has absolutely no idea where he is.
"This is so embarrassing for the US," chirped a second as a third jabbed: "Trump out here like a lost Goodyear Blimp."
A fourth slammed: "The leaders of the free world and Donald Trump."
"G6+1. Six allies discussing the future. One outcast wondering how he got there," echoed a fifth as a sixth added: "Here’s a very confusing Donald Trump wandering off in the wrong direction and had to be guided back in front of G7 world leaders.
"Does he actually know where he’s going?"
Other MAGA supporters, however, didn't agree with such sentiments.
"I can tell you where he is…….in CHARGE, Motherf*cker," exclaimed one as another chimed in: "He knows damned well. He just doesn't give a sh*t."
And a final X user added: "You’re delusional much!!!! You got the wrong President, bro!!!!"
Starmer and G7 counterparts welcomed Trump’s 'breakthrough' deal with Iran and voiced support for a 'robust and comprehensive' agreement to follow it.
In a joint declaration, the leaders of the US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and Canada said: "We recognise the breakthrough and the opportunity that currently exists in the Middle East."
They said the deal provides a 'historic opportunity to prevent Iran from acquiring any nuclear weapon and tackling the threats related to its regional and ballistic activities' and that they are ready to contribute to implementing it.
The world leaders added: "We reaffirm that Iran will never obtain a nuclear weapon."
