He’s been President of the United States for more than 500 days, and during the last year, there’s been a wealth of photographs that paint a picture of Donald Trump’s style of governance and diplomacy – bombastic and isolated.

The 2017 G20 Summit saw him cutting a lonely figure amid a sea of world dignitaries, and the photo captured at the G7 Summit in Canada perhaps encapsulated world leaders' exasperation with Trump's move to slap tariffs US allies.

As the US President turns 72 on Thursday, 14 June, The Quint looks at some of these "decisive moments" captured by photographers from across the world.
