Angry Trump storms off

DONALD Trump sensationa­lly quit the Nato summit after world leaders were caught on camera gossiping about him.

A video showed Prime Minister Boris Johnson, above right, French leader Emmanuel Macron and Canadian PM Justin Trudeau mocking him.

The US President accused Trudeau of being “two-faced” after the incident in front of Princess Anne at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday.

The trio appeared to be ridiculing the length of Mr Trump’s press conference­s.

The American leader cancelled an afternoon press meet and flew straight back to Washington.

He said Mr Trudeau was “not happy” after earlier that day he “called him out” on not paying 2% of Canada’s GDP to the defence alliance.

But Mr Trump later played down the spat.

He tweeted:“We won’t be doing a press conference at the close because we did so many over the past two days.”

World leaders, also including German chancellor Angela Merkel, attended the Nato 70th anniversar­y summit.
