President Trump Leaves G7 Summit a Day Early (WSJ. 20250617)
President Trump has departed a summit of G7 members in Canada a day early over growing tensions in the Middle East. Before leaving, Trump and other G7 leaders signed a statement backing peace and stability in the Middle East and affirming Israel's right to defend itself. However, we report that Trump resisted a statement being prepared by Canada calling for a diplomatic solution to the crisis. His shortened visit means the leaders of India, Australia, South Africa, Brazil, and South Korea will no longer have a chance for face time with Trump ahead of a July 9th White House deadline to strike trade deals before the imposition of higher reciprocal tariffs. Trump's return to Washington will also see him miss a scheduled meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. While back in Washington Senate Republicans hoping to deliver a tax and spending bill to the President by July 4th have proposed a range of revisions to the bill that passed the House last month. Among them, the Senate would make permanent certain Medicaid cuts and several business tax breaks that the House bill would only extend temporarily. Clean energy tax credits would get a longer runway before being phased out and in a move that's already stirred frustration in the House, the Senate will stick with a current $10,000 cap on deductions for state and local taxes down from a $40,000 SALT cap included in the House bill to win support from some blue state Republicans. And we are exclusively reporting that tensions between OpenAI and Microsoft are escalating amid OpenAI's push to loosen Microsoft's control over its products and win approval for a for-profit pivot. The tech titans are also at a standoff over the terms of the start-up's $3 billion acquisition of the coding start-up Windsurf. With talks having grown so tense that OpenAI is reportedly considering a so-called nuclear option accusing Microsoft of anti-competitive behavior and possibly seeking federal intervention. That would mark a stunning shift in what had been one of Silicon Valley's most celebrated partnerships. OpenAI has a content licensing deal with the Wall Street Journal's parent company News Corp. Stock markets in Asia have ended the day mostly lower, European markets are down in midday trading and U.S. stock futures are also slipping ahead of expected May data for retail sales and industrial production.
