Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo has not ruled out the possibility of attending the G7 Summit, set to take place in mid-June in Canada, after being invited by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney.
During her morning press conference, the Mexican head of state emphasized that the invitation to this intergovernmental political and economic forum—known as the Group of Seven (G7), composed of Germany, Canada, the United States, France, Italy, Japan, and the United Kingdom—was extended by Carney himself following a congratulatory call from Sheinbaum on the occasion of his inauguration.
“On the day I spoke with the Prime Minister of Canada to congratulate him—I hadn’t yet had the chance—we discussed several topics, including the USMCA and the relationship with the United States. He invited me to attend the G7 summit, which will be held in Canada,” Sheinbaum explained.
She expressed her gratitude for the invitation but noted that she has yet to decide whether she will attend.
“I haven’t made the decision yet on whether I will go, but it’s a possibility. I thanked him for the invitation. Mexico is not part of the G7… these invitations are extended to special guests, and we are evaluating the possibility of attending based on domestic priorities,” she added.
If the President does attend, this would mark the first meeting between Sheinbaum and her counterparts from the United States, Donald Trump, and Canada, Mark Carney—amid growing pressure from Washington over tariffs, immigration, remittance taxes, and the review of the USMCA.
