LA MALBAIE, Quebec - US President Donald Trump has tweeted that he now doesn't endorse the G-7 joint statement after what he calls Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's "false statements" at a closing news conference.

Trump also tweeted that Trudeau had acted "so meek and mild" during their meetings and that his tough talk later is "dishonest & weak."Trump issued the tweets from Air Force One just as Canada released the joint statement.

The president is flying to Singapore to meet with the top leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Kim Jong-un.

The Group of Seven (G7) summit, which kicked off in Qubec city on Friday, is expected to be a tough meeting between the United States and its allies amid raising concerns over US tariffs on steel and aluminum imports.

The leaders of the G7, the world's most powerful industrialized countries including Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Britain, Japan and the United States, meet every year to discuss collaboration on issues like world economy, climate change, security and peace.
