Happy quote off and welcome to the Program Divisions on display at the g. Seven summit in canada leaders of some of the worlds most powerful industrialized countries clashed with u. S. President dol trump especially over trade and tariffs the psalmist canadian hosts had hoped to focus on Economic GrowthClimate Change and gender equality but before the meeting even began trump tossed another contentious topic into the mix he wants russia to be readmitted to the g seven it was all smiles during this family photo but besides the italian Prime Minister the other leaders are not on board with bringing moscow back into the g. Seven fold. The scene looks idyllic but as leaders pulled together for the socalled family photo it was clear that one of the men in the middle u. S. President donald trump was more focused on a family feud. Leaving washington for the summit trump set the tone for the days to come he left the u. S. As allies know what he thought of their relationship for their price tag like well we for which you would the more we say dont mention the fact that they have trade barriers against our farmers they dont mention the fact that theyre charging almost three hundred percent of what it all straightened out well all be in love again. And then he threw in this surprising tidbit. Right here you see in this meeting why are we having a meeting without russia being in the meeting i would recommend and its up to them but russia should be in the meeting you see to be a part of it a provocation for german chancellor Angela Merkel she had spoken out against allowing russia back into the group and in canada she pushed back. When his influence i need does we all agreed that the return of russia to the g seven summits columns happen until substantial progress has been made in connection with the problems with ukraine. Russia iran Climate Change world trade the list of issues on the g. Seven summit agenda is long but its far from clear if the leaders will be able to agree on anything substantial besides trumps tariffs on steel and aluminum from allies which splits the us from canada mexico and the e. U. There strains even within the european bloc the new italian Prime MinisterGiuseppe Conte has openly expressed support for president trump. With tensions rising in a possible trade war looming amongst close allies the future of the g seven is hard to gauge many observers have said its likely this summit will end without a joint communique signed off on by all its members. Im now joined by having a geek from the think tank German Council on Foreign Relations trump says he wants russia back in the g. Seven fold why is he so keen on getting moscow back at the table here can avoid thinking that this might be an attempt to divert attention from the conflict inside the g seven i think trump has understood that the g. Seven isnt united against him in this case japan wanted to have closer relations with russia italy as has been said the new government might be open for that so he might have caused some some. Discussions inside the g seven that stop people talking about the trade issues that you think it was so in the direction of conflict and war now. Its too early to do that to take russia back in because the conditions need to be fulfilled and i think the others have shown if you sign of unity against america it was well in terms of those tariffs were going to talk about it even if he maybe doesnt want to the french official has now said the u. S. And the e. U. Will have some talks in the coming weeks about this is a positive step in that direction towards alleviating a trade war is trump going to potentially throw another Monkey Wrench in the process i think they talk about tariffs of wild as they should i mean we have just stopped negotiating t. To the transatlantic trade and Investment Partnership between the e. U. And the us. In which the terrorists would have been abolished anyway so. Trump could have had that negotiations on a lower level maybe specifically with certain sectors with the e. U. Anyway he wouldnt there was no need to start this this with a bombastic gesture and no announcement of wars and threats and all that he could have started to negotiate but he wanted to make the initial initial step a bit more uncomfortable for the others speaking of of course are consisting of much on but hes expected to leave this meeting rather early several hours early in fact hell miss some conversations about Climate Change and other topics this might mean all seven leaders wont potentially be signing the end of summit communique how serious is this i mean this is unique and i think it is a big problem with the g seven is a very important clump of the former World Leaders its not without china so they have to defend their position theres good reason to believe that there will be more g. Seven summits and more more of that but. Trump is always willing to show that hes able to walk away from the table that he can destroy procedures and organizations that of us hold dear just to have a better outcome for america ok alec ng i had some probably already is too as hes heading to singapore with the north korea summit on the horizon how are the leaders at this summit looking ahead to that i think theyre happy that there is talk that there is an america trying to negotiate and talk itself out of the crisis but nobody hopes i think seriously that communion will give a Nuclear Weapons because this is the the Life Assurance that he has and if there is a talk in america well take the blame if it goes wrong everybodys fine henry makow from the German Council on Foreign Relations thank you very much actually. Iranian president Hassan Rouhani says he wants further talks with russia on what he calls americas illegal withdrawal from the Iran Nuclear Deal rouhani was speaking on the sidelines of a major Security Summit in the chinese city of qingdao a two day meeting is being close cohosted by russia with india and pakistan also in attendance some see it as an alternative g seven expected to dominate discussions are the Iran Nuclear Deal and rising tensions with the u.
