Biden: Trump saying Russia should be invited back to G7 'makes no sense'
By Avery Anapol - 06/08/18 02:35 PM EDT


Former Vice President Joe Biden on Friday criticized President Trump for suggesting that Russia should be reinstated into the G7.

In a tweet, Biden said the comment “makes no sense,” denouncing Trump for wanting to "reward" Russian President Vladimir Putin while "alienating" key democratic U.S. allies.

“Putin’s Russia invaded its neighbors, violated our sovereignty by undermining elections, and attacks dissidents abroad,” Biden wrote. “Yet our President wants to reward him with a seat at the table while alienating our closest democratic allies. It makes no sense.”

Russia was suspended from the group of top industrial powers — then the G8 — in 2014 after it annexed Crimea from Ukraine.

Biden's comments came hours after Trump told reporters on Friday that Russia should be invited back to the summit. Trump spoke with reporters ahead of his departure for the weekend's G7 summit in Quebec, Canada, from which he will depart early.
