Britain in close contact with U.S. in run up to G7 - PM's spokesman

Britain is in close contact with the United States in the run-up to the G7 summit and is looking at what is being proposed, a spokesman for Prime Minister Boris Johnson said on Wednesday. Earlier, the White House said President Donald Trump believed there would be "no greater example of reopening" than holding a summit of Group of Seven leaders in the United States near the end of June.

"We continue to be in close contact with the U.S. in the run-up to the summit and we are looking at the detail of what they are proposing," the spokesman told reporters.
