    Why would the European Council President say "under no conditions" can Russia come back to the G7, G7 includes US, Japan, Canada

    Russia got kicked out of the G8 supposedly for annexing Crimea ......but they are in the G20

    Regardless of what you think of Russia, why is this tossbag opening his mouth?

    Ok so from what I can see this is the quote in context -

    “One year ago, in Canada, President Trump suggested reinviting Russia to G7, stating openly that Crimea’s annexation by Russia was partially justified. And that we should accept this fact. Under no condition can we agree with this logic”

    So Tusk seems to be saying under no condition can he agree with Trumps idea that the Russian annexation was ‘partially justified’

    As far as I know if Russia handed back the land it stole then it might be let back in.

    And I believe that the Australians proposed banning Russia from the G20

    Look before WWII Hitler was prancing around annexing places that were not his and the international community said it was OK that was called appeasement.
