**Navigating Diplomacy: Carney's Tactful Approach to Managing Trump at G7 Summit**

In the face of rising global tensions and economic issues, Carney’s diplomatic strategy aimed to keep the summit focused and productive.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney greeted President Trump with well-wishes for his birthday, emphasizing American leadership at the G7 summit held in Kananaskis, Alberta. However, tension arose when Trump spent time during a press briefing expressing discontent with various issues including Russia’s absence and criticizing Democrats over immigration. After over seven minutes of contentious dialogue, Carney intervened, stepping forward to guide the focus back to the summit's agenda.

With critical discussions on international relations and the economic impact of U.S. tariffs weighing heavily on the minds of world leaders, Carney’s decision to curtail the president's comments reflected a keen awareness of the potential disarray a Trump-centric approach could bring to the gathering. "If you don’t mind, I’m going to exercise my role, if you will, as G7 chair... we actually have to start the meeting to address some of these big issues," Carney stated firmly.

As global leaders converge to tackle pressing international challenges, the question remains: How to manage President Trump within the context of global diplomacy? Carney’s calculated approach of balancing respect and assertiveness illustrates the complex dynamics world leaders face in their dealings with the U.S. president. The summit seeks not only to address current crises but to navigate the turbulent waters of international relations, ultimately attempting to forge a united front among nations in an increasingly divided world.
