lady, jill biden, will be meeting with families and service members there. the president will also give remarks before he heads to this region of cornwall where the g7 summit is being held. the president also has a meeting with prime minister boris johnson tomorrow before those g7 meetings get under way. covid-19, climate and countering china are expected to be at the top of the agenda for that summit. the president, while in the uk, also will meet with queen elizabeth, the 13th american president the queen will sit down with face-to-face. from the uk, the president travels to brussels for a nato summit as well as an eu summit and a side meeting with turkey s erdogan. that comes ahead of the critical meeting with russian president vladimir putin where the president himself has said he plans to address some of the cyberattacks that have recently been occurring. so many high-stakes issues under debate during this first foreign
trumpy in foreign policy. i don t see how if you re sitting in any other capital you can assume that the united states is going to go back to playing the role that it played in the post-war years. i think we re in the post, post-war era now. well, richard haass, mike barnicle, john heilemann, gene robinson, all still with us, and joining the conversation, senior adviser at moveon.org and an msnbc contributor karine jean-pierre. and director of domestic policy studies at stanford university and research fellow at the hoover institution, lanhee chen joins us. let s get to the moment of the g7 that many see as encapsulating the problems of trump s performance at the entire summit on the world stage. president trump did not attend a meeting of world leaders to discuss action to address climate change before the close of the g7 meetings in france.
