Trump moots hosting G7 summit after US election

US President Donald Trump on Monday suggested hosting the Group of Seven summit after the November presidential election, saying he would invite countries generally excluded from the global get-togethers. The Group of Seven (G7) brings together the leaders of some of the world's richest countries, who meet to discuss political and economic issues. Trump had initially wanted to hold an in-person summit in Washington in June -- an idea that German Chancellor Angela Merkel rejected.
