Donald Trump disputes reports that he faced a tense reception from world leaders at the G7 summit in France

US President Donald Trump and Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson hold a bilateral meeting during the G7 summit in Biarritz, France, August 25, 2019.

Trump joined the leaders from France, Britain, Japan, Germany, Italy and Canada in the French coastal resort of Biarritz for three days of talks that kicked off on Saturday with an ambitious agenda that includes the defence of democracy, gender equality, education and climate change. France has got around that problem by doing away with the time-honoured communique, deciding it was not worth even trying to find common language.

Johnson later retorted that it would be Tusk himself who would carry the mantle if Britain could not secure a new withdrawal agreement.French authorities have detained 68 people taking part in a tense protest near the G7 summit. Earlier, thousands of anti-globalisation activists, Basque separatists and "yellow vest" protesters marched peacefully across France's border with Spain to demand action from G7 leaders meeting in the nearby coastal resort of Biarritz.

French host of the G7 summit, Macron, and Johnson also sounded the alarm about the dangers of Trump's escalating trade war with China.
