Obama: Nuclear terrorism was the official topic as Obama and other world leaders streamed in to a convention centre in The Hague for a two-day nuclear summit. But the real focus was on a hurriedly scheduled meeting of the Group of Seven industrialized economies to address the crisis in Ukraine on the sidelines of the nuclear summit, according to 660 News. In a show of western solidarity, Obama declared shortly after arriving in the Netherlands on Monday morning that the U.S. and Europe stand together behind Ukraine and THE Netherlands President Barack Obama gathered with world leaders in a day of delicate diplomacy, as he sought to rally the international community Monday around efforts to isolate Russia following its incursion into Ukraine. The U.S., Britain, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan were to participate but not Russia. Discussion among Obama and his G-7 counterparts will centre on economic aid to Ukraine, while at the same time seeking to segregate Putin from the exclusive group, which Russia usually joins in Group of Eight meetings.
