France Delays G7 Finance Ministers' Meeting

France Delays G7 Finance Ministers' Meeting

The French government has decided to postpone an online meeting with finance ministers from the G7 countries.

The meeting was originally planned for Wednesday, January 21, but has been moved to next week.

The reason for the delay is because of some scheduling issues.

France is currently leading the G7 this year, and their finance minister, Roland Lescure, wanted to have this meeting soon.

The delay comes after the Trump administration in the United States said they might increase taxes on some European countries.
