- Cristiano Ronaldo gave Donald Trump a signed jersey.
- The gift exchange occurred at the G7 Summit in Canada.
- The shirt was inscribed with a message of peace.
European Council President António Costa presented former U.S. President Donald Trump with a jersey from soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo, adding a surprising touch to the G7 Summit in Kananaskis, Canada. The gesture, complete with a wink towards teamwork, has become a hot topic.
The back of the shirt featured a personal dedication from the Al-Nassr player, reading, “For President Donald J. Trump. Playing for Peace.” This unusual gift exchange occurred at the summit in the Canadian Rockies, where other leaders, including European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, were also present.
The gift exchange occurred in the context of the G7 Summit, where discussions about international trade and tariffs were also taking place. Trump had earlier threatened to impose significant tariffs if negotiations with Brussels didn’t progress. However, after speaking with von der Leyen, the deadline for potential tariffs was delayed until July 9.
The jersey itself is a symbol of the Portugal national team, which, with Ronaldo, recently won the UEFA Nations League, defeating Spain in the final.
