On your president ial just a moment mr president we all hope that youll visit us in poland in september when we mark the anniversary of the invasion by nazi germany. Is getting ready. Trump says hell consider the invitation for what would be his 2nd official visit to poland. And our Washington Bureau chief alexander phenomenon has been following todays visit she sent us this is us. Poland has positioned itself as a reliable ally of the Trump Administration at a time when other European Countries among them germany are critical of donald trump and his decisions the polish president was rewarded with a warm welcome at the white house and the promise to deploy additional you as troops to their country troops that could be shifted away from germany the u. S. President warned donald trump used this occasion once again to criticize germany for not spending enough on defense his comments were the latest sign of how you as german ties have eroded in recent years. And lets get more now from our Political Correspondent thomas ferro who is joining us here in the studio what are we to make of toms comments well 1st of all theyre not necessarily new weve heard in the past from donald trump but what he thinks about germany when it comes to germanys defense spending that he would like germany to spend much more than what the country is spending weve heard before from donald trump his criticism about germanys planned north stream to pipeline with russia and watch the views there of germany becoming hostage of russia those were his words not mine so in a sense this is not new the possibility that there could be sanctions when it comes north is maybe further development of all this but is that xander correctly pointed from washington i would interpret dollars from his words as a sign of what is becoming a very troubled relationship between washington and bernie now that the possibility of sanctions has been firmly put on the table should the German Government be worried they should certainly consider it and look at that very carefully or bridge or that they are doing that already as i say trumps comments and not seem to are not new weve heard that many times before but when we look at those comments by donald trump we also have to look at a separate issue when it comes that its not only about Energy Security donald trump mentioned yesterday in the meeting with what he described as a vital element namely Energy Security the United States as he pointed out is becoming a very Important Energy supply and particularly liquefied natural gas or l. And g. And the u. S. Already exporting l. N. G. To many parts of the world including new contracts with poland so when we look at all this we have to understand that donald trump is not only criticizing germany because he believes germany would become hostage of russia it is also doing so because it has very particular interest when it comes to its own Energy Supply and these Energy Exports that hes been talking about lets talk about the images that we saw from the white house i mean these are due to there we saw trump sitting side by side really presenting themselves now as best friends. What does it mean for the relationship between germany and poland germany is relationship to poland is extremely important as neighboring countries has been so for a very long time but in the last few years it has been strained weve heard from poland Different Things that are happening that are not necessarily in line with the way germany views it so this maybe doesnt mean anything practical between germany and poland the fact that the u. S. And phoniness signing a contract when it comes to energy when it comes to defense but it does mean that germany again is facing challenges when it comes to its views not only from neighbors like poland also from partners far away the United States and it has to deal with them accordingly so i wouldnt say there will be any practical outcome from this when it comes to german polish relationship but obviously it is something that indeed germany will have to consider very carefully what he looks not only of his relationship with the United States but also on his relationship with thomas thanks for the analysis.

The hong kong system makes sure that the chief executive is friendly towards business beijing is from the probe aging com thats the electoral system the Electorate Councils composition so any chief executive will have to.
