EU Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen on Sunday called on G7 leaders to avoid protectionist trade policies as leaders from the industrialized countries arrived at their annual summit.
"Let us keep trade between us fair, predictable and open. All of us need to avoid protectionism," von der Leyen said at a press briefing, with US President Donald Trump's tariff onslaught certain to enter the conversations at the three-day event, reports BSS.
