The skies over Kananaskis are sunny – and that's the spin world leaders are putting on this last day of the G7 after the US president's sudden exit last night.
Host Mark Carney, the Canadian prime minister, has said work must go on without Donald Trump.
He punctuated the point this morning by announcing C$4.3bn (£3.1bn) in new support for Ukraine while standing next to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Zelensky hopes to push the remaining leaders at the summit for more Russia sanctions, a suggestion Trump met with skepticism the day before.
Trump will also miss meetings with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum.
So whatever does come out of this summit will be looked at through the lens of Trump's absence – and the fact much of the world attention has now shifted to Washington DC and the White House's plans for the Iran-Israel conflict.
We are now pausing our live coverage of the G7 summit. You can stay across the latest developments in the Iran-Israel conflict here.
Speaking on the sidelines of the G7 summit, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen addresses ongoing trade talks between the US and the EU.
She says the talks are "complex" but they are "advancing", and the goal remains to reach a deal by the 9 July deadline.
US President Donald Trump – who has repeatedly described EU trading policies towards Washington as "unfair" – has threatened to raise the tariff rate to 50% with the 27-member bloc.
Last month, however, he agreed to extend a deadline to negotiate a deal from 1 June to 9 July, after a "very nice" call with Von der Leyen.
We've also heard from UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at the G7 summit this morning.
He says Donald Trump gave no sign that the US would get involved in the current Israel-Iran conflict, before the US president left the summit early to return to Washington, citing events in the Middle East.
Starmer says: "There is nothing the president said that suggests he's about to get involved in this conflict. On the contrary, the G7 statement was about de-escalation."
But as Starmer was speaking, US Vice-President JD Vance said Trump "may decide he needs to take further action" to end Iran's nuclear programme.

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney says his country will offer an additional $2bn Canadian dollars in military aid to Ukraine and another $2.3 billion in loans.
Zelensky thanks him for the military package, especially after Ukrainians had a "very difficult night" last night, being hit by drones and missiles that killed 12 and injured 138.
He calls it "a big tragedy" and says "we need support from our allies". He says it's important for Ukrainian soldiers to stay strong on the battlefield until Russia is ready for peace negotiations.
"We are ready for the peace negotiations – unconditional ceasefire… but for this we need pressure," Zelesnky says.
He adds that he wants to speak to Carney about additional sanctions at the G7 today.
We've just heard from Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who are meeting at the G7 summit in Canada.
Carney says support for Ukraine will be "unwavering" – we'll have more quotes from both leaders soon.
Trump's early departure from the summit ruled headlines this morning, but agreements were still struck on key issues despite the US president's early departure.
Here's what happened:
Gary O'Donoghue
Chief North America correspondent, reporting from the G7
Here at the G7 – which for today has become the G6 – it feels a bit like a wedding without the bride.
The United States is the most powerful country in the world. It has historically been the leader of the G7, so Donald Trump’s abrupt departure is a test of the summit’s relevance.
The Canadian hosts say there has still been progress and that a lot of good work has been done, including a joint statement on the Middle East which the Americans signed after it was watered down – but they sort of have to say that.
It’s true, there was no falling out, which I think the Canadians will see as a huge achievement.
But there’s a whole raft of other world leaders turning up today – Volodymyr Zelensky, Narendra Modi, Anthony Albanese – all expecting to have face time with the US president. They will try to make the best of it, but they have been left at the altar.
There will be lots more warm words, the rest of the G7 will work with the visiting heads of state to hammer out some statements. In truth, though, the real work here has been the bilateral discussions on issues such as trade, rather than what the group as a whole can say about the state of the world.
The G7 summit in Alberta, Canada will congregate for a third day today – with the notable exception of US President Donald Trump.
The US president left the economic bloc's summit ahead of schedule last night, with the White House confirming he had to see to affairs at home as Israel's strikes on Iran continue.
But diplomatic talks will continue regardless of the US president's absence.
The Iran-Israel conflict will likely lead discussions – but there's more on the table, as leaders discuss trade, security and the war in Ukraine.
We'll be following key developments from the summit right here. Stay with us.
G7 leaders have been hoping to get Donald Trump's full attention to discuss issues like global trade and the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine.
Instead, the US president is now due to return to Washington a day early, given the worsening conflict between Iran and Israel.
The White House insists that Trump has achieved much during the trip – most prominently signing a tariff deal with UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer.
Even with Trump leaving early, the show must go on for Canada's PM Mark Carney, who will be hosting the leaders from France, Germany, Italy, Japan alongside guests from India, Australia and Brazil.
We'll shortly be closing our live coverage. You can stay up to date on the latest developments on the BBC website.

The Australian PM's primary goal this summit was a meeting with Donald Trump – something Anthony Albanese has been desperately trying to arrange since he was re-elected last month.
The pair have a lot to discuss. Albanese wants to negotiate exemptions to the White House's sweeping tariffs scheme, and he also wants to bend Trump's ear on the Aukus defence pact, which the administration announced it was reviewing last week.
But just as Albanese was outlining his agenda for the upcoming meeting at a press conference, it was announced Trump would be cutting his trip to Canada short – and tomorrow's Albanese meeting from his diary.
A spokesperson for the prime minister in a statement said it was "understandable" given what is occurring in Israel and Iran.
"As the Prime Minister said a short time ago, we are very concerned about the events in the Middle East and continue to urge all parties to prioritise dialogue and diplomacy."
French President Emmanuel Macron was speaking to reporters just as news came that President Trump was leaving early to handle the unfolding crisis in the Middle East.
Trump, according to Macron, said "moments ago" that talks were underway.
"If the United States can get a ceasefire, that's a very good thing," he said. "France would support it."
Asked how Macron read Trump's early exit, the French leader said there were US offers on a ceasefire that could lead to wider talks.
"I think that's a good thing."
Trump is leaving the G7 in Canada a day early – and it's not without precedent.
At the 2018 summit, coincidentally also hosted in Canada, Trump left the gathering of world leaders to meet with North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un.
He left the Charlevoix, Quebec conference and flew to Singapore where he met Kim for talks about North Korea's nuclear programme.
Just like seven years ago, he leaves early because of conflicts surrounding another country's nuclear programme – this time Iran's.
As a reminder, Israel has launched air strikes on Iranian cities citing its concern that Iran's nuclear programme threatens Israel. Tehran has retaliated with airstrikes of its own, some of which have penetrated Israeli air defence systems.
We have just seen the leaders posing for the "family photo".
They stood on a platform with an imposing mountain range behind them.
After the photo, as some leaders were already leaving the stage, Trump started taking reporter's questions about his early exit: "I have to be back as soon as I can." He was referring to the Middle East crisis.
He added: "I think we got a lot done," gesturing to the UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, with whom he signed a tariff deal.
The host, Canada's PM Mark Carney, said he "fully understands why" Trump is leaving a day early.

Donald Trump’s visit to Canada and the G7 summit turns out to be a short one.
While those of us in his press pool were holding in vans, awaiting the short drive with the motorcade to the leaders' “family photo” and dinner at a nearby resort golf course, we were informed of the change of plans: The president would be heading back to Washington tonight.
A few minutes later, in a post on X, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told us that it was because of “what’s going on in the Middle East”.
The president is sticking around for dinner, so that means he will be travelling practically across the North American continent overnight.
It has already been an eventful day here in Kananaskis. We’ve had multiple chances to interact with the president, and he has been adamant that Iran’s nuclear programme must be fully dismantled – and that the nation is not winning its war against Israel.
According to Fox News, he has told his National Security Council to be ready to meet. He will have all the secure communications he needs aboard Air Force One.

We are eagerly awaiting the “family photo” where all the leaders gather for a group snap.
It is staged and often behind an imposing background as the leaders all smile.
They can be historic: last year when Italy hosted the summit, the late Pope Francis joined the dignitaries for the group photo, becoming the first pontiff to do so.

But in 2018, it was not the family photo that captured headlines. It was a side photo of leaders in discussion that captured the awkwardness and tension at the summit in Charlevoix, Quebec.
Trump, during his first term (just as he is doing now) was pursuing an aggressive international trade policy strategy even with allies like Canada and the EU.
The photo shows a seated Trump, with arms crossed, surrounded by colleagues included Germany's Angela Merkel, France's Macron, and a visibly bored Shinzo Abe of Japan.
It is a first G7 for several of the leaders today so we will be looking out for the same details, from subtle body language cues down to how order in which these powerful men and women line up.

While Trump departs to Washington, the G7 will roll on without him.
There are a couple of key things he will likely miss a couple of planned bilateral meetings, including with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
Ukraine is on the agenda tomorrow, and is expected to be pushing for more sanctions on Russia, for which Trump has expressed skepticism.
He was also expected to sit down with Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum.
A number of other world leaders – who are invited as guests of G7 host Mark Carney – are only arriving tonight, just as Trump makes his way home. They include Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
The White House says the US president is bowing out early from this G7 due to the conflict in the Middle East.
Certainly, much of the discussion here – on global security and trade – has been overshadowed by the deteriorating situation between Israel and Iran.
It's clear there were some rifts over a joint communique being fleshed out by the leaders and their aides – and whether there was consensus around a call for de-escalation.
Trump will stay for the traditional family photo and for a dinner, before heading back to Washington tonight.
It seems like Trump is bowing out a day early of this G7, after dinner with the fellow leaders.
“President Trump will return to Washington tonight so he can attend to many important matters,” White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt said on X. Jessica Murphy
Reporting from the G7
We're getting a little more detail on this morning's meeting between President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Mark Carney.
According to a readout of the meeting released by Carney's office, the "leaders agreed to pursue negotiations toward a deal within the coming 30 days".
As a reminder, earlier today the pair said there had been movement on talks between the countries despite – in Trump's words – the two men having "different concepts" on trade.
Trump's tariffs on the UK aerospace sector are set to be removed entirely as part of today's trade deal.
This is a win for companies like Rolls-Royce, a major manufacturer of aircraft engines.
All other countries face a baseline tariff of 10% on aerospace goods, including aircraft parts. Note: A previous version of this post referred to Rolls-Royce as car manufacturer, which is a different company to the Rolls-Royce that makes aircraft engines.
