Hello there if you have justjoined us, welcome to bbc news. Today is the second day of the G7 Summit a meeting of the worlds seven largest established advanced economies. Christian fraser is there for us. Good evening, day two of the G7 Summit. Very much the business and, six hours of talks between the leaders with the focus on future pandemic preparedness, Foreign Policy and security, and a particular Focus Push on the american side on how to contain and challenge chinas growing influence in the developing world. The leaders are being asked as well to commit to are being asked as well to commit to a project that Boris Johnson are being asked as well to commit to a project that borisjohnson has dubbed the Carbis Bay declaration, a series of measures designed to quash future pandemics, so global Surveillance Network to identify variance of new viruses that might cross from animals to humans, more global capacity for genetic sequencing, which the uk is currently good at, more support for the reward will enact reform of the who, and new development and diagnostics for vaccines within A Hundred days.

Theyre not going to come here and try Push Someone into doing something. There are questions About the covid vaccine programme, how much people are willing to donate. We already had Joe Biden talking About half a billion, the uk talking About 100 million, but the detail is About over what period of time, how quickly can i get it there, and will other Countries Japan and how will they do so will other Countries Chip in, and how will they do so . Whether it is vaccines, they all have their pressures at home as well, but it is About trying to get an agreement About all of those things. So an agreement About all of those thin.

Of course, and you have the nations who are incredibly powerful, they are incredibly rich, despite everything that has happened with covid, but you cannot get away from their domestic pressures. They will still be having to weigh all of that up About how much theyre willing to spend on the other projects. It is always About that with diplomacy and global politics, About seeing the bigger picture from them and covid is very good example that youre not can be safe in your own country until everyone is vaccinated.

Very busy morning for Boris Johnson. Countries. Very busy morning for Boris Johnson, aside countries. Very busy morning for Boris Johnson, aside from countries. Very busy morning for Boris Johnson, aside from being | countries. Very busy morning for. Boris johnson, aside from being the borisjohnson, aside from being the host of what is going on this afternoon, he has been involved in some bilateral meetings with and a known background, the European Commission president , and later on with Angela Merkel, lets hear what he had to say when he came out of these meetings a little earlier. I think to be fair, theres quite a lot of think to be fair, theres quite a lot of misunderstanding around eu About lot of misunderstanding around eu About the lot of misunderstanding around eu About the situation in Northern Ireland, About the situation in Northern Ireland, the balance of the good friday ireland, the balance of the good friday agreement, the peace process, and i was friday agreement, the peace process, and i wasjust in a gentle way getting and i wasjust in a gentle way getting across what that means. And ithink getting across what that means. And i think that getting across what that means. And i think that we will have some pragmatic solutions, and if we dont. Pragmatic solutions, and if we dont, then i think that our friends has also dont, then i think that our friends has also understood that it is a Prime Has also understood that it is a Prime Duty of the Uk Government to uphold Prime Duty of the Uk Government to uphold the Prime Duty of the Uk Government to uphold the territorial integrity of the united kingdom. And that is what we are the united kingdom. And that is what we are going to do. And we will do whatever we are going to do. And we will do whatever it we are going to do. And we will do whatever it takes to ensure that. Now whatever it takes to ensure that. Now. Since whatever it takes to ensure that. Now, since he did that interview, the german chancellor has come out and said we are looking for pragmatic solutions, which is exactly the term you just heard in that interview with Boris Johnson. So is that a cheek of light . It might be, but do they think that the solution is pragmatic for both of them . This is a problem that weve had all along, different interpretations of this. They are all saying, no, we get along with the deal, but it is a weight is being implemented, that is going to being implemented, that is going to be the problem. There certainly summit issues such as medicines going from england to Northern Ireland, the eu is probably willing to make some compromises there, but i think they feel they have enough compromises already. So there is this huge difference of opinion, i think it was interesting, Boris Johnson was saying we would do anything we take. What does he mean by that . Does he mean they trigger article 16 . And dont forget, that you have already launched this election against the uk on these checks, so i think itll be difficult to find a solution. They both want to, but i think Emmanuel Macron, what he sees as a matter of trust, he sees this as a Uk Government going back on something they signed, they have got to stick to their word, and he does not seem to their word, and he does not seem to feel you can have a good relationship with another country if you cannot trust them. So i think thatis you cannot trust them. So i think that is a problem here, lots of people will say borisjohnson was there lots and times in the brexit negotiations, but three of the tory border that he put down the irish sea, you will have issues with Northern Ireland and that is what happened. figs Northern Ireland and that is what ha ened. R. , Northern Ireland and that is what hauened. R. , Northern Ireland and that is what hauened, a. , happened. As forjohnson was saying esterda , happened. As forjohnson was saying yesterday.

As forjohnson was saying yesterday, you can do a lot happened. As forjohnson was saying yesterday, you can do a lot down happened. As forjohnson was saying yesterday, you can do a lot Down Thei yesterday, you can do a lot down the line, but you need when you are face to face, when youre on the Beach Tonight around the campfire, you can haggle a bit more. Beach tonight around the campfire, you can haggle a bit more. Yeah, to be interesting you can haggle a bit more. Yeah, to be interesting to you can haggle a bit more. Yeah, to be interesting to see you can haggle a bit more. Yeah, to be interesting to see whether you can haggle a bit more. Yeah, to be interesting to see whether it be interesting to see whether it does or doesnt help, but i think maybe being face to face does help in these situations. There hasnt been a blazing row, but certainly with the eu leaders, that was what the meeting was all About, it was all About Northern Ireland protocol. This is going to be a big issue in the next few months. I dont think it will be resolved completely tonight, but as ever, someone is going to have to compromise and it feels like the days of the brexit negotiations. In feels like the days of the brexit negotiations. Feels like the days of the brexit negotiations. In a very important one that is negotiations.

In a very important one that is important to our Uk L one that is important to our uk viewers. On monday he has to make a decision About whether to fully unlock, whether to carry on with the Road-map'>Road Map that he set out, where are we with that . We with that . These are the final restrictions we with that . These are the final restrictions which we with that . These are the final restrictions which they we with that . These are the final restrictions which they were we with that . These are the final l restrictions which they were hoping to lift, and borisjohnson said it is the data and not dates, he means by looking at cases, hospitalisations and deaths. And at the moment, the data is not looking that good. We have the Delta Variant which is more transmissible, cases are rising, which you would expect when you list restrictions, but i think the connection is whether they can break the link between cases and hospitalisations. It is happening up to a point, but a delay of four weeks would mean that millions more people will be more protected from a double dose of vaccine. I think that is what the government is going to go.

We do couple outbreaks today, another one in hotel, with the german Security Team saying in it, and one on a ship that the Police Officers were staying on as well. So there is that direct still around, but that is what Boris Johnson is mindful of. From the financial times, johnson is mindful of. From the financialtimes, simon, the financial times, simon, the Whitewall Editor for the financialtimes, simon, the Whitewall Editor for the ft. And financialtimes, simon, the Whitewall Editorfor the ft. And i want to pick up in your front page today, becausejoe died Joe Biden wants to push more, he has a massive bill on it, and he receive these countries moving away from the austerity towards social democracy. It is a remarkable Shift And One that borisjohnson will be happy with because if you look at the huge sums of money that he spent during the crisis, £400 billion has been added to the uks debt, as a leaders do, but theres been this big concern in the Uk And Other Countries that you could see a big wave of inflation, you could see Interest Rates rise. Decorative real consequences for national finances, but when all the leaders met yesterday, they looked around and said, you know what, letsjust keep spending. And i think across the board that is a very welcome thing. Nancy said, it is the opposite to what we had after the financial crisis, where everyone mostly went into austerity, cut the public spending, whereas now we are in this era where low Interest Rates are here to stay. And i think it is a remarkable difference and shows how much has changed and how countries look at their economy and the global economy over the past decade. It is interesting. Economy over the past decade. It is interesting, the politics of that because the abortions and who was elected on a promise a level of the country and you have written a book on how they won all the seats in the north of the country, but you still have germany, and we have had a statement from Angela Merkel this afternoon saying we cannot very well replicate the initiative that china is doing because always a bit cautious with the Cash. Is doing because always a bit cautious with the Cash. They in this initiative which cautious with the Cash. They in this initiative which we cautious with the Cash. They in this initiative which we are cautious with the Cash. They in this initiative which we are talking initiative which we are talking About very shortly from the g7 leaders is part of the west saying we are back, multilateralism is back after the age of Donald Trump in the brexit wars, they want to have a United Front. In the real focus is china, and when you look at that initiative, over 1 Trillion being spent investing in africa and other parts of the world to expand chinese influence, the seven leaders here want put forward their abilities. The key question is is or could be more Cash . My understanding is that is where the haggling is right now, they need to figure how much new money is going to be behind now. Weve heard all the promises from the ae you, the g7 leaders before, thatis the ae you, the g7 leaders before, that is what i think is going to be the real test, is actually going to deliver to counter Chinas Influence .

Does it remind us About the diminishing limits of the g7 the diminishing limits of the g7 countries, worth About 40 of the World Economy, but it is shrinking. It is that why raising other democracies being brought in, South Korea, south africa, india, australia, represented here as well today . Borisjohnson talks About as a football team, the g 11 at rather than the g7, is that where we are heading . It than the g7, is that where we are headini .

It was 6096 of the world l economy, not decline it shows what we have seen a shift in the past 40 years since the g7 came into inception. And the reason those countries are here is because Boris Johnson is thinking of the idea of the detent, what he calls it, the idea of getting the democracies together to combat the rise of china, way to get around the fact that we have left the eu, he still want to have influence on global matters. And it was interesting one is going to be australia, Scott Morrison yesterday, arrived today, and what really matters for Boris Johnson is that trade deal. We are expecting that to be signed, probably a Downing Street on Monday Or Tuesday when Mr Morrison remains in town. But it is exactly what borisjohnson is doing with the diplomatic matters that you have in india, very influential, but not a member of the g7, same with South Korea and australia. But with all the summits, a lot of talking down in the real question is what canet actually deliver . I think of the green and nance and Climate Change, their questions About what hard stuff is going to be done . Because if you compare where india is to the us in Climate Change, completely different space. Different space. Very interesting, lovel to different space. Very interesting, lovely to talk different space. Very interesting, lovely to talk to different space. Very interesting, lovely to talk to you different space.

Scott morrison is in australia during a lot as well, and he is being pushed very much on what australias Climate Targets are going to be, very difficult when youre a Co Producer to start cutting immediately, when youre a coal producer, but echoing on his background.

But speak to naomi in Carbis Bay, where the leaders are stationed. When you watch the Body Language yesterday, macron with his arm around Joe Biden, it was pretty clear that the french president wanted to strike up a relationship with joe wanted to strike up a relationship withJoe Biden as quickly as he could.

Yes, it was a real Charm Offensive by Emmanuel Macron, which he continued today as we saw there in that conversation, and how do you talk About Donald Trump without mentioning his name . I wonder that is a conversation that a lot of the g7 leaders have had for the summit, and Mr Macron did well not to Mention Mr trumps name, neither did Joe Biden. 0f Mention Mr trumps name, neither did Joe Biden. Of course, Mr Trump was very different character to biden, he did not like the G7 Summit, he called it outdated. But Mr Biden will be pleased to hear those words by the french president because his message has always been, since he was elected president , that america is back. He wants to show global leadership, and they both want something else from each other, Emmanuel Macron is up for reelection, and Joe Biden wants to get the g7 allies on board for a lot of his plans, particularly on dealing with china as we heard earlier. And that cosy, comfortable little chat they were having, i think it will probably continue Tonight Becausejust think it will probably continue tonight because just behind think it will probably continue Tonight Becausejust behind me, i think weve been showing pictures on the bbc at the preparations being made for this Barbecue Beach Party thatis made for this Barbecue Beach Party that is happening tonight, which im sure they all really excited About. It is a perfect weather for it. Yeah, indeed. I read that its an informal barbecue this afternoon, this evening, does that mean that they do away with the suits and the ties . ~. ,. , ties .

So they have a chef coming into make lovely food for them, there will be five pips On The Beach where they will be having toasted marshmallows and roasted brie and buttered rum and that kind of thing, but i think that this barbecue is a real opportunity for the leaders to let their hair down. One of the criticisms that you often hear About this G7 Summit is why could it not have been done online . Why could they not zoom like everyone else has been during the past 18 months . But the Uk Government said they would have the personal interaction, especially when youre having conversations About tough issues. In the fact is there is only so many times you can do eight Zoom Call and have that conversation on the phone. Summative diplomacy is done, as you mentioned,. They are not made in the office, they are made in the corridor, when youre having a cup of tea at breakfast or when youre on the Golf Course or even on a beach, so i think we can expect them to carry on having those conversations. Butjust in a much more fun setting, and beautiful one as well and should say. Ive seen pictures this morning of Boris Johnson running On The Beach, but i Iuess Johnson running On The Beach, but i i uess that johnson running On The Beach, but i guess that is johnson running On The Beach, but i guess that is what johnson running On The Beach, but i guess that is what you johnson running On The Beach, but i guess that is what you have johnson running On The Beach, but i guess that is what you have to johnson running On The Beach, but i guess that is what you have to do.

These are the pictures you will be enjoying one infourto one in four to open, so the 21st Of June was going to be the day they can trade for the first time in 15 months and for the remainder, trading with social distancing restrictions. They are making a loss every time they are open and trading. So it really was a chance for them to get back towards profitability, rebuild their business, and the first date the sector could look confidently at a recovery. So it is devastating to know that those restrictions might continue and businesses might have to struggle to continue and continue to struggle to continue and continue to make a loss and for many it will be The End of the Road.

From the 1st ofjuly, businesses in the sector will have to pay Business Rate bills and £100 million of Business Rates are hitting the sector injuly, furlough will jeopardise 200,000 jobs that are protected by it. The government to continue that support mechanism, and given the uncertainty this is giving to businesses, we would recommend extending the Business Rates holiday, the Rate Moratorium for another three months to give those businesses vital Breathing Room while we come through this and they can start to get on the Road to recovery.
