7 and then proceeded to kind of dominate things by claiming after hes isolated himself that somehow hes being isolated by everybody else a so its a its a very difficult situation china anticipated that i think they deliberately released their tariff news just before things i think in the past donald trump thought that he could push the buttons of china and i think hes finding that china is pushing back now whats new about this is that you know he after all of this kind of turmoil everybody in essence in unison turning against him. He said oh well i have 2nd thoughts i always have 2nd thoughts people thought that perhaps he was signaling that he had gone the wrong direction but at this point hes reversed that again and he said oh i should have put them up higher so this is classic donald trump he cant say sorry he has to figure out some way of doubling down. The thing is it stay with you just for now and what is happening between china in the United States affects the whole world it will have a knock on effect and you would think at Something Like a g 7 meeting that the 7 biggest economies in the world would be able to start working together i think we need to mitigate these effects that there are concerns of a recession even if the us president says its not going to happen surely that is something where they can be some consensus and cooperation absolutely but it would take donald trump to admit that the u. S. Economy is in trouble that the rest of the world is under threat and hes not willing to do that and what one hand hes saying that hes demanding that the fed lower the or lower rates in order to increase the Economic Activity hes threatened to lower the dollar and then he stands up and said nothing to worry about everythings going great economy is strongest as ever under donald trump so he has this duality hes painted himself an essence into a corner where he cannot admit that this much vaunted economy that he gave the sugar high to with these tax cuts is actually a paper tiger that is fast fading away im going to go on a slight tangent here and do this with particular thing as youre in the United States the talk of recession if there is a recession in the u. S. It will affect the rest of the world we know that but internally at the moment it seems to be this argument with the chairman of the Federal Reserve in the United States jay powell in fact if i remember rightly donald trump even tweeted whos the bigger enemy is that is it jay powell or is it chairmanship jinping. Well among other things trump of course is a Real Estate Developer so hes always wanted low Interest Rates so this really goes back to his business i mean if youre a Real Estate Developer you want them as low as possible obviously as he has been said he doesnt accept blame for anything you know economists figure in the next year or 2 the u. S. Is likely to hit into a recession the president certainly doesnt want that before november of next year when hes up for reelection and the fed i mean the talk about a sugar high Monetary Policy can give that the problem is the fed has to think longer term you know its had lower Interest Rates coming out of the financial crisis it cant keep those forever it has to take this longer view trump doesnt like that at all and from his standpoint and his supporters he always wants an enemy he wants to play off of somebody and the fed will do its an institution that its easy to demonize and hes going to use it so if theres a recession in america he doesnt want to be his policies that are blamed is going to go after somebody else the fed is a convenient target ok lets try not to talk about donald trump for a moment because i think inevitably he comes into every Company Session but there is a fight and let me come to you i think being from the center for russia europe and asia studies youre well placed to talk about this emanuel mccrone he wanted to change the structure of this g 7 he said lets invite some other leaders thats bring in india lets bring in a straight a lets bring in African Leaders what is the purpose of that. And unfortunately again are they going to get left behind because everyones talking about all these other issues weve discussed. Well i think that was my khans way of kind of giving a positive spin to the fact that there will be no communique at the end and this idea of almost a year ago this idea of the alliance of democracies we havent really seen much of that happen we also have the largest city to picture interests of whats happening with that downtown and micron have talked about bringing russia back but theres been a great deal of resistance to that because nothing has really changed where we are to sanction russia and then happen come back to the polls not you know theyre still in crimea so i dont think thats thats kind of a nonstarter everyone has been so and. So then the next g. 7 youve got happening actually in the United States that will be interesting a denizen a because if mccrone as the host of this one is set the agenda. It would be. Donald trump who would set this next to jennifers you know 1000000000 member whole issue of russia comes back into it again yes itll be. Election year for donald trump i think youll want to see that you used. The genesis of the bill for more at home and not worried about gotcha questions but. I think you lose europe on this theyre really a been steady on sanctions and we held on to them but its the idea of bringing russia back without any sort of you know leave by a little of these International Rules and norms and then as we were done by bringing them back into the g. 8 since when the principles meant so there are other areas where they can work with russia but not at the g 7 thats how i think many european leaders and i want to ask was very clear in his opening remarks day before the summit took place. I know lets bring you back and i mean this is going more broadbrush than just china but well china is a an ally of russia sent in places like the Security Council doesnt it just show us again that no matter where the summit happens or how it happens its about all these one on one alliance as i hate using this whip bilateral stuff which actually decides it absolutely i mean things have descended i mean this is what donald trump wanted he does not like multilateral institutions where he has to deal with a consensus and overcome that he likes bilateral where the u. S. Can use its military economic and political my to get the best deal but i want to react to something that raises said she said you know if russia has violated all of these conventions and rules and things like this but i mean if by that standard the u. S. Would be in a real pickle because i think donald trump i think everyone would agree he has violated pretty much all of the rules and conventions Going Forward and the united us has in the past especially with a number of these wars and actions withdrawing from you know the international. Human Rights Council you know denying access i mean denying the jurisdiction of the i. C. C. Etc shown that it is in fact an outlier so itd be a little bit. Odd. Hypocritical to be calling other countries that now im not defending what russia has done i think it needs to be censured but you have those who are doing it need to be in the clear about their own actions there is a do you want to answer to that before i go back to doug. Sure 8. 100 seems to have broken every taboo before the election and after the election he is breaking many other International Norms and rules. She can bring out a standing ovation a double as because everyone was fearful when donald trump or actions would take protectionism is terror all these other issues so i agree but still the situation of the international. Market following the rules this idea of what about is well what about this what about that i think that we have a situation now that sovereignty issues even our peoples republic of china did not recognize what. Russia did and they were considered kind of frenemies and friends with benefits right now so sovereignty issues are very cheap to the international. So if we just are looking other way when other countries take bits and pieces of other countries i think it sends a very dangerous message probably entire International System is like pulling a thread. Piece of fabric the whole thing will start to unravel and i dont think the whole show is helping internationally right now i think. Its very much consonant stress in egypt but i dont think that is a reason to not rush shes ok folks are starting to run down the clock so i just want to get a final thought if youre going to go back to the numbers that i started with. In fact if you go back to 2008 remember the g. 20 meeting in the middle of the Global Financial crisis and it was sort of decided then right g. 20 is going to be the premier world body for Decision Making on cooperation and economic recessions and all these sorts of things and yet here we are still discussing a g. 7 with a few extras the socalled elite countries are the ones who are here supposedly making all the decisions doug shouldnt we really be worried more about what the g 20 has to Say Something that is actually more representative or actually does that just splinter even more and you get even less chance of an agreement. Well i think thats the challenge is the more countries you involve the harder it is to get agreement i think theres a good argument for getting together democratic allies industrialized countries that generally share values that generally share our military security interests that have a long history together and thats what these countries do and getting together and talking about issues me what is the proper response to china i mean this is clearly an issue that matters to the europeans as well as america the president s trade or is not in my view going well what would be a better response i think teresa was right you want to use the europeans work with them japan as opposed to push them away so the g. 7 has an opportunity you know what is the u. S. Relationship with europe and the u. K. These these are important issues that america should be supportive of both so i think that this the g. 7 could be very useful in this regard more useful than the g. 20 simply because you get a certain intimacy of Decision Making the g. 20 is useful as well i think its a different function to research a 7 g. 21 plus ones whats the best way its true the more cooks the difficult make brought up the idea of the g 7 i think to work with allies even if you look at the us at the white house statement it sounds like. Those elements and components create the current Economic Issues if this is a turning point that would be absolutely amazing is this right or more hyperbole remains to be seen but i think that europe feels under attack we see right today japan and korea 2 very important allans and its a fixed appends member of the g. 7 theyre having a falling out so the Alliance Structures are really calm and i think if the g 7 cant even come up with that statement its a really were parameter of the International System right now i dont believe the final word to you not just on which party is the right thing but also you know just thoughts on the next 6 to 12 months with china in the u. S. The next 6 to 12 months will probably not bring about a deal simply because donald trump is an unpredictable and unreliable i noticed my my 2 fellow colleagues didnt mention the obvious statement that there can be no consensus where donald trump is involved he is not a consensus person he has not reached a consensus with anybody on anything since he started his presidency so let us not gloss it over this is just simply somebody who is isolated himself and that is why quite frankly there will be probably no trade deal prior to it because it doesnt make sense to make a deal with somebody who you do not think will carry it through and this is something that both mexico and canada are experiencing as we speak. Well thank you to all of you 3 shall i say doug to reason fallon and i met tang and thank you and me as well lets just for thank you for watching there is always more few online inside stories in the shows section at aljazeera dot com if you want to see this episode dora any of our others again were also at facebook dot com slash a.

Ill get adrian for going to the top stories on aljazeera President Donald Trump was once again insisted that hes not seeking regime change in iran and says its too soon to meet irans foreign minister who made the comments the day after jobs are youve made a surprise visit to the g. 7 summit one hour from aljazeera is james bays. The u. S. Has had a maximum pressure policy a policy of very very tough sanctions to try and bring iran to its knees weve seen a Fresh Initiative in recent days by the french and president macron including inviting Iranian Foreign minister here to bear its President Trump and this was the key thing says he supports that initiative he says he gave his permission for zarif to come he was going to meet him self at this stage but the u. S. I think making it clear that there is room for diplomacy and clearly there is no breakthrough in just moments ago President Trump was with chancellor merkel of germany and she said things were slowly moving forward i think that puts it clearly in perspective for us part was also seeing whats been said in tehran because president rouhani has been speaking and he believes there is a 2 month window now for diplomacy. I believe that in order to secure our countrys National Interests any instrument should be used if i know that going to a meeting and visiting a person will help the country get developed and solve the peoples problems i will not miss it the principle is the National Interests of our nation President Trump also spoke about the ongoing trade war with china he said that negotiations were set to restart soon. I mean business they want to be able to deal its very important. To get what was really a lot of things that happened and its why personally shes a great leader he is and its going to be great its going to be great this is going to be great for the world. And hes able to do things that other people are unable to so we will call and were going to start really shortly to.

Between november 915 and main 1916 britain and france agreed a secret deal for dividing the Ottoman Empire to the european allies when the 1st world war and so. Now we can draw. A young british politician sir mark sykes and the french lawyer turned diplomats also. Drew borders that best suited their own interests the psychs pekoe agreement. Its cut across a separate deal the british had already made with sharif a saint of mecca to support him in creating a hashemites arab kingdom in return for his leading to an arab revolt against autumn and. The south of anatolia eastern turkey and the syrian coast down so beirut were put under direct french control while basra and best dug were placed under direct british control. Mosul and damascus were under french protection and called area a the rest of mesopotamia and the southern levant were put under british protection and called the area being. Jerusalem was designated as an international zone. But soon. After the deal was struck some voices in london began expressing dissatisfaction with what britain had decreed in the secret negotiations. As a good friend. In. What i thought. Were what count just see their figure as general hoar and had been a fuckwit you were freely. Given a no im not big enough of us you could have a. Few 100. Have you hold the year before think well if we cannot have palestina my government was suddenly not allow britain to control my government would take the same view. Could not agree over the future of palestine when they did their deal at the end of 1950 and they agreed it would have an international ministration but neither side light as a an outcome and the british didnt like him back to killer because it left the east bank of the su is now exposed to an administration that could be governed by who knows who so the british immediately start to think of a way to get round the sights pito agreement so the facts almost immediately before the ink of because signature is dry. Go starts talking to the zionists visit ionise to movement grew up in the late 19th century with the ultimate aim of establishing a jewish homeland in palestine. The jewish lobby was growing in britain and the British Government took its aim seriously. The british might also use the port for the jews to persuade the American Government which included several jewish figures to join the war. Other factors may also have been at play the Zionist Movement itself and its leader hind rights. Were political zionists and there aint from the very beginning the ultimate aim was an independent jewish state in palestine there in these early days they didnt say that because if youve only evoked hostility to their project paper the effect of their own wish. Was a. No and i for one see you be full had. A 5th also you know im sure i know you hold your core too in an aggrieved and youre going to would feel see you data traffic both on.

A month before the Balfour Declaration the new bolshevik government in russia following the revolution had made public the details of the sites pekoe agreement as it sought to distance itself from decisions made by its sorest predecessors. Grocer bought for a father had. To fork out a folder can have more idea only a little bit earlier ma i barely hear. Her or her. Father had. To fuck up. To fuck up i will into hack because. I sure all believe. That who care at that lee is sterile or or a star matilda shore or all the revelation from the russians came while the hashemites were fighting alongside the british in the levant so they realised the british were playing a double game. Their british also recognised frances right to determine the future of large parts of the area that should be for same had expected to control.
