【German Chancellor: Trump Cannot Decide on Russia's Return to the G8, 6 Members of G7 Disagree】
Johannesburg time November 23, 2025, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said at a press conference after the G20 Summit:
It is well known that Donald Trump still believes it was a mistake to exclude Russia from the G8. This decision was later made in the G8 with the agreement of the United States. If it is to be changed, every member of today's G7 must decide together. When he spoke about the American solution, he said that he currently does not see whether the six non-American current G7 members are willing to re-admit Russia into this circle.
