Trump was originally supposed to stay at the G7 summit in Canada until late on Tuesday, but signalled from midday Monday that he would be leaving early.

He explained: “I have to be back as soon as I can,” with the White House pinning his return on “what’s going on in the Middle East”.

The other six leaders were left scrambling to put on a united front, and insisted they understood Trump’s decision.

Macron said: “If the United States can get a ceasefire, that’s a very good thing. France would support it.”

But this riled Trump, who blasted “Publiciy-seeking President Emmanuel Macron, of France, mistakenly said that I left the G7 Summit, in Canada, to go back to D.C. to work on a “cease fire” between Israel and Iran. Wrong!

“He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington, but it certainly has nothing to do with a Cease Fire.”

Trump earlier urged “everyone” to evacuate Tehran immediately – though officials insist the US is not gearing up to join the Israeli bombing on Iran.

The other six leaders remained at the summit, and outwardly said they sympathised with Trump cutting short his attendance.

Canada’s PM Mark Carney said he “full understands why” Trump had to leave early.
