cheers and applause good evening, im Demarco Morgan. Good evening, im Demarco Morgan. With tensions between the u. S. And russia at the highest level since the cold war, president s donald trump and Vladimir Putin are about to meet face to face in helsinki, finland. Leaders from washington and moscow have met before in helsinki. Gerald ford and Leonid Brezhnev in 1975. Gorge h. W. Bush and Mikhail Gorbachev in 1990 and bill clinton and Boris Yeltsin in 1997. Cbs this morning cohost Norah Odonnell is leading our coverage of this historic summit and joins us now. Norah . Reporter and good evening to you, demarco. President trump arrived here ahead of his russian counterpart who attended the final match of the world cup soccer tournament in moscow. Well, now comes the superpower summit the world will be watching. President trump has no public appearances planed until tomorrow when he will have breakfast with the president of finland at the president ial residence here in helsinki. Later in the day mr. Trump will meet with putin at the president ial palace. Now, before heading here from scotland this weekend President Trump in an interview with cbs news tried to downplay expectations of any breakthroughs with putin President Trump touched down in finland sunday just hours ahead of a highstakes sit down with russian president Vladimir Putin. A top advisor tells cbs news the two leaders are expected to spend about 30 minute alone with just translators. Before an expanded meeting with staff. Mr. Trump will be joined by secretary of state mike pompeo, National Security advisor john bolton and chief of staff john kelly. Good to see you. Thank you. Reporter before heading to helsinki President Trump told cbs evening news anchor jeff glor, when it comes to talks with mr. Putin he has low expectations. I go into a meeting like that, never with high expectations, but maybe some really good stuff can happen. Not high expectations, youre just its a oneonone conversation. Whatever it is, i am representing our country. I want to do great for our country, and im sure he wants to do well for his. But that doesnt make it mutually exclusive. I mean i think we can do something good for everybody. Reporter last friday special Counsel Robert Mueller indicted 12 Russian Military Intelligence Officers for their efforts to undermine the 2016 president ial election. Putin has denied ordering the interference. But National Security advisor john bolton today called foul. I find it hard to believe, but that is what one of the purposes of this meeting is so the president can see eyetoeye with president putin and ask him about it. The russians who were indicted, would you ask putin to send them here . Well, i might. I hadnt thought of that, but certainly i will be asking about it. But again, there was during the obama administration. They were doing whatever it was during the obama administration. And i heard that they were trying, or people were trying to hack into the r. N. C. , too, the Republican National committee. But we had much better defenses. Reporter the senates number two republican senator john cornyn urged the president to tread carefully. Putin is an autocrat, hes a thug, he does not respect the rule of law. Obviously doesnt respect our democracy. Reporter weve learned there will be a joint press conference between President Trump and president putin. White house correspondent weijia jiang is also here in helsinki, weijia, you have been talking to officials, what do they say they hope to achieve. Norah, the white house says the success of the summit is the summit itself, because they say it opens the door to negotiations in the future on a wide range of issues. But still, they are keeping the bar very low. The ambassador to russia jon huntsman is questioning why its being called a summit at all. And National Security advisor john bolton says they are not expecting any concrete deliverables. Reporter president putin has met with u. S. President s in the past, in fact this meeting with trump will be his fourth u. S. President that he has met with, but this will be the first time that they have an extended one onone private conversation what are some of the pit falls of such a meeting . Reporter well, you know there is a chance that President Trump could make concessions, like we saw him do with north Korean Leader kim jongun. In fact, he surprised many by suspending those joint military exercises with south korea. So he could scale back nato military exercises which are designed to deter russia or loosen russian sanctions. The president s advisor says is he calling the shots and he is going to talk about whatever he wants to. And both sides have agreed that this meeting is going to be unstructured, which means some room for miscalculations, especially because putin, a former k. G. B. Chief is known for his ability to be charming when he wants to be and we have seen the Charm Offensive work on President Trump in the past. Reporter weijia, thank you so much. Now what might Vladimir Putin request of mr. Trump at the summit . Well, Elizabeth Palmer has done extensive reporting from moscow over the years. And tells us what to expect. When the World Cup Final kicked off tonight in moscow Vladimir Putin was at the game showing not a hint of presummit stress. Hes on a roll. The tournament has been a triumph for russia and a personal p. R. Coup for him. The last time we met President Trump back in november both men were all smiles. But there is no telling what the chemistry will be like tomorrow. And the kremlin has deliberately kept expectations for a successful summit low. When russia invaded and annexed crimea in 2014 the u. S. Slapped on sanctions. And has been piling more on ever since. Over russias support for separatists in eastern ukraine, and especially for meddling in americas 2016 president ial election. Mr. Putin would dearly love to Ask Donald Trump to lift those sanctions but kremlin insiders say thats too much too fast. Instead the russian leader may pressure mr. Trump to reduce americas military presence in syria and suggest the two countries restart arms control talks to limit their nuclear arsenals. Given all that might be discussed, were joined now by Elizabeth Palmer. Liz, good evening, so why did they choose here in helsinki. Well, first of all, convenience. Both leaders are going to be able to get here in a couple of hours because as you mentioned donald trump is coming from scotland. Also neutrality. Finland is a country that has prided it self on maintaining good relations with russia and yet its also in the e. U. So it sees it self as a bridge between russia and the west and history shows thaws it is a good place for these kinds of summits. There were three in the last 40 years and all of them were pretty much judged successes. Reporter all right, liz palmer, thank you. And we will have the breaking news from helsinki starting early tomorrow at cbs this morning. Then wednesday jeff glor will sit down at the white house with President Trump for a post summit interview that will air on the cbs evening news. Im Norah Odonnell in helsinki.
