Watch live: Trump holds G7 press conference amid Iran deal blowback
Skip to content
President Trump will hold a press conference Wednesday before departing France, where he has been attending the G7 summit this week.
Trump will face questions about the memorandum of understanding (MOU) to end the Iran war, a 14-point plan that is facing intense pushback from his own allies.
Appearing alongside Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi earlier on Wednesday, Trump said the MOU is not “final” and threatened to resume bombing of Iran if it doesn’t “behave.”
He also said the alternative to the deal is “worldwide depression,” despite previously brushing off economic concerns amid the war.
Trump said the press conference will begin at 10:30 a.m. EDT.
