demands from israel so it was relatively easy to reach a cease fire. by the summer of one thousand nine hundred forty nine lebanon jordan and syria had also signed armistice agreements with israel. the jewish state now extended over almost the whole of palestine. arab territory it was reduced to just a few small enclaves east in jerusalem and the west bank were placed under jordanian control. the gaza strip was to be administered by egypt. in the midst of defeat. conceived a plan that would change the future of egypt. a movement that would be known as the free offices. africa theater minister but the

hardware were different that out of range. of a black hole eleven the caliber. of the little logic i got aside that when they had the set of the clear but fear. that led to see a mostly. washer give out a lot of a full head of the somme lot of way cooler machete that i'll offer him at the outset are. three years after the end of the war the free offices struck. in july nine hundred fifty two they launched a coup d'état. egypt's king photo who was dethroned and sent into exile. lieutenant colonel come on up to. the mosque to mine behind what was now cooled to july revolution quickly rose to be the country's to

shock to lead. in israel this news aroused deep rooted fears in kibbutz state but can't bring time into home of israel's founding prime minister david banker. and. then gorean all the time feared that one day a new kemal ataturk would rise in the arab world and would unite the power of world against israel. and that fear or that prevention was enhanced when nasa took power ninety fifth. and february one thousand nine hundred fifty five ben-gurion returned to political life. this time as defense minister.

just a week after bangor ian took up the post one hundred fifty israeli paratroop as led by major ariel sharon. was sent to attack an egyptian army base near the city of gaza but. forty egyptian soldiers were killed. and many more injured. when bigger came back he decided medically to show that israel is not going to give in. this time a from the egyptian border the provocations and the attacks by inch of traders who are on the rise in.

a tub the mass of a year or more the need for a way in matters of some your comes off some seem was the. medina or was. and that has a let me answer. has alerted. claiming they were egyptian territorial waters not so close the terrans straight at the entrance to the gulf of aqaba to ships sailing to and from the israeli port of the land. to strengthen his army not some sort more weapons from the west at this time to no avail. so in a surprise move he turned east. russia's new foreign minister mr should be

laugh lost no time in taking a personal part in middle east affairs and he was soon engaged in talks with president nasser. egypt signed this huge arms deal with czechoslovakia which was actually with the soviet union. to slovakia was supposed to supply egypt with two hundred aircraft. tag's. thousand it was something fabulous. in november one thousand nine hundred fifty five bangor ian began a second term as israel's prime minister. at the top of his agenda was how to respond to the growing strength of egypt now armed to the teeth.

eight months later the opportunity came. when nelson announced the nationalization of the suez canal. a decision that outraged the british and french the owners of the international canal company. it is a matter of life and death to israel. our quarrel is not with it still less with the out of work. it is with colonel not. that he's not going to trust to keep it under green. britain and france were convinced that military intervention would be needed to recapture the canal. and bring down the upstart. but to

pretext was needed. fun to say i lease a beano was in a cloud again. and to a sort of eighty to call my own guy i'm in mossad i. home with very up. the whole other s.s. in norm cloak room in a part of china and what i mean by the how to kill myself akasha and yell our leg anybody can express the sort of cut i kind of question. well listen a subtle food for thought the at that he asked that all follow in normal eleanor and how. according to this tripartite secret agreement on the twenty ninth of october one thousand nine hundred fifty six. is really food has crossed the border into egypt.

even though these really is was still some distance from the canal britain and france called for both sides to withdraw. when nasr rejected the ultimatum british and french troops began landing and put signs at the mediterranean end of the canal. night a statement not consulted in any way about any phase of these actions nor were we informed of them in advance. it is our hope and intent this matter will be brought before the united nations general assembly there with no veto operating the opinion of the world can be brought to bear in our quest for a just in to this tormenting problem.

by the end of december. under heavy international pressure. the british and french were forced into a humiliating withdrawal from put saeed. louvel attention now shifted to israel still occupying the whole of the sinai and the gaza strip. yes a year the ease. that. in march one thousand nine hundred fifty seven ben-gurion finally ordered the israeli army to withdraw to the pre-war borders.

however he had secured two major gains. the stationing of un troops along the borders with egypt and gaza put an end to the palestinian fedayeen xrayed inside israeli territories. and israel was guaranteed free passage of has shipping through the tiran strait. the sinai complain gave israel actually about ten years of. signed peace. on the egyptian border between one hundred fifty seven and ninety six to seven there was a total call. but the fragile peace on the buddhas mosque continuing hostility between cairo and tell of eve.

in israel as their fights man the commander of the air force was devising a new strategy. operation focus. i mean among some kids. thought the family to its war a concept. seemed the most movie and we won't see what the mission movie. really how many can be dug in its leaf we only want to see you know people in. two things threatened to derail that plan. the first was egypt's highly versatile serviette made defenses. this network would soon face its first major test. not at the hands of fights mins after force but through the bizarre actions of an israeli peace activist. he would not and was

a commercial pilot and every gimmick for elections of nine hundred sixty five he bought a little airplane painted into wife and put. name peace and said if i'm elected to the knesset i would fly to egypt. he was not elected to very small number of people voted for him but i did time he became very serious of this so one day without any announcement he took off with his claim. ab in a tan planted import salary to egypt in february one thousand nine hundred sixty six. was it is. when is it and what it is. furthermore now tan asked to meet president not to deliver

a petition calling for peace. egyptians treated him very nicely. did not let him into egypt but they can feel his tank is gather lin and sent him back. in a tense flight had revealed the weakness of egypt's ad defenses. but israel still had a major concern. to make twenty one. a high performance supersonic soviet fighter. it formed the backbone of the arab air forces. but it too would soon give up its secrets. in august one nine hundred sixty six an iraqi pilot landed in israel with his make . he had been offered a million u.s. dollars to defect. but it would turn out to be worth every cent.

that he should clear our chief test pilot of the air force check the airplane and when you all it's this is. the gist of the make one year one which was the airplane of the war in the enemy hands. it was not known before what the israelis had learned about the meat was put to the test in actual combat. in april one thousand nine hundred sixty seven the buddhist skirmishes with syria escalated into a full scale aerial battle. which shut down seven aircraft. it was such a victorian the israeli air force. in the weeks following this battle. reports possibly originating with soviet intelligence began to come in that israel

was massing its army on the syrian border. an apparent escalation that spurred nasr into action. on the food thousands of may one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. did it gyptian troops into sinai. must bustle it has he held out a while a selfie in the. wind no more god in the mail and foscari the door fee. i hope she. even when who. was allowed. out a house. that was all outdoor short.

but small said also saw an opportunity to try to roll back the gains israel had secured following the one nine hundred fifty six war. on the sixteenth of may. egypt asked the u.n. to withdrew its peacekeeping troops from sinai. a week later and the theatrical setting of a meeting with his fighter pilots and also announced the closing of the tiran straight to israeli shipping. news of nasr is actions boot people out onto the streets all across the arab world . tell me about a billion dollar slaves a little above. well

a man in the wall of the finance. although there just because of said what edition of the bus the book called leader in. israel's new war cabinet under levy ash called took the decision to open hostilities on the fifth of june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven. the air force was given the green light to operation focus. the aerial attack it had been rehearsing for years. the israelis had trolled the dice which would determine the future of the state.

i'm sam is a dam in doha they look at the headlines here now to syria now donald trump azhar ski u.s. representatives not to endorse the joint communique on trade put out by g seven leaders in canada all the members had signed the deal but the u.s. president says changed his mind following comments like canada's prime minister trump took to twitter to call justin trudeau weak and dishonest dismissed the

critique saying is that nothing has been said before this is what justin trudeau initially said about the trade. particularly did not take lightly the fact that it's based on a national security reason that for canadians who either themselves or whose parents or community members have stood shoulder to shoulder with american soldiers and far off lands and conflicts. from the first world war on words. that it's kind of insulting i have made it very clear to the president that it is not something we relish doing but it is something that we absolutely will do because canadians are polite were reasonable but we also will not be pushed around the u.s. president is now a nice way to singapore where his landmark summit with north korea's kim jong un

will take place his administration is hoping the talks will begin a process that eventually leads kim to end the nuclear program donald trump has described it as a one time shot of peace. it's day two of a summit in shanghai leaders from india china russia and pakistan were among the is hand these are the shanghai cooperation organization talks with north korea and regional security dominated the agenda. saudi arabian state television says three civilians have been killed in the south of the country they died in following solid sag by yemen based who three rebels three year conflict has killed more than ten thousand people in yemen and displaced at least three million. latest from saudi arabia the united arab emirates and courts a look at how they can help jordan out of its economic struggles the european union's top foreign policy official traveled as george on saturday to meet king

c.s.e. on what. we have gotten up lemme men in law malaya give me cameron. out on the e-mail and more female because. of this egyptian show of strength was put to good use by israeli media. memories of the holocaust were invoked to persuade israelis they were facing a threat to their very existence. in a difference where the nazis. grandmother nothing was never mentioned by name in the bow media at the time it was called the egyptian tyrant it was his name. in washington u.s. president lyndon b. johnson issued a stark warning to which ever side should start the war. it was

a thinly veiled threat to the egyptian leadership. its tone there at the extra. hour is come out of them also. by you know so much value is sought even. to warm a dot about. what to go where your thoughts and i'll have a. lot of hell to fight but it's. a national team but daughter but all i want to how did. ian. not to look up but about well how did you fuck up. in fact israel though apparently the underdog was far more prepared for war than any of its arab opponents.

is really chief of staff it's have to be in the front line to meet troops waiting for a green light. on them is action of not so is a hand to mobilize all his horses all ins the horses. and also told thing we should strike first and the sighting first was in the eyes of the ensign to what we thought on this invasion of the egyptians. the opening attack would be the much trust operation focus. and aerial strike to destroy the egyptian efforts on the ground.

in the early hours of the fifth of june ninety sixty seven. the israeli afros prepared to deliver the first blow. when the break up is a morning and came to the briefing room he wrote owners of leg bolts sours. was a seven month old to five. the the. two hundred israeli jets took to the at. the back. they would arrive over a chip shin asked fields at exactly seven forty five am. to avoid radar detection they flew fast north then west over the mediterranean. turning south the planes came in from the north not from the east as the egyptians

had anticipated. to engage in the bait that would kill them. because in a field that's a kind of a tense of alabama. with hostile school but it's in a way for. you know every single. very uses as you train the many many times. he's. got located very easy owns the ground and not far from the runways. was not a big problem to strike. immediately

use so big. smoke over ole's those airfields. get it when i'm at hand on the playfield eight layers minute a bunch of go up and head home why had said if said a little. but action has a maybe. i live. by midday the israelis had successfully attacked eighteen airfields. the egyptians had lost eighty percent of that effortless. more than three hundred planes destroyed on the ground. but that the. best.

of the. society. ironically cairo radio was carrying false reports of the total failure of the enemy's air attack. with news coming in of egypt's apparent success georgian syria and iraq now launch their own ass strikes. and the. minute they have. but you know it was one hundred eleven and. that's how they reported. i want to show isn't the mineral for them to see them in . the roman ruins. ineffective though they were

those attacks gave these really as a pretext to widen the scope of the whole. operation focus was extended to cover affeldt in jordan syria and even a key base in iraq. a story on the only base for me state called lynch islam and the only base in which we could in each with the last drops of. my serve fly to today. not far from damascus. when i made my first turn over the city of the most schools people who climb on the roofs and wave for us the people in the most those. caught off guard the syrians lost half the

act kroft. th tree asked field in iraq was put out of action. and georgians after the supposed totally destroyed. by sunset on the first day of school operation focus had guaranteed israel total as superiority and the skies over the middle east. the arab armies would now be fighting with no ass of course. the outcome of the war had been sealed. anything that there is no example in history of the world of the asian of such a total strike and the total of ten. maybe the only time the two can compare to this bilawal the take of japanese on the moment totals all grades of blood that was

almost that's a made in the mental fleet in the pacific. on the ground egyptian forces were bearing much better. they had succeeded in holding up the israeli army to tons and to sinai. yet the egyptian deputy supreme commander marshal on that was about to take a disastrous decision. its roots lay in his attempted visit to the front line the day before. meant to see me say. i was. beautiful gus gus i should be seen by

bill hall at small. even gonna see me. record they are. the. best stop him to it that's monk a fiend bamidele say could obviously. miraculously the plane was able to return to cairo. but marshal ahmed had been shocked by witnessing israel's and supremacy at fust times. the next day i met ordered an immediate withdrawal of egyptian troops from sinai. and which led to the total collapse of the egyptian front. yes the custom of the family cheshire there means. share it plays

a mean able who are its very hush to base the arts vague bets and write them in the summer. so young me the dust if for young we have what we're looking for. they. can one shot he segued. if lead to last either at last call or by your very list of a sense. share and it's a horn a ya big love with heart that's a vote up of him by story other than the fact they saw him get will mean more him like a lawyer because. by the fourth day of the rule israeli troops reach the eastern bank of the suez canal. they had occupied the whole of the sinai peninsula and the gaza strip.

from out she lived there for her support street. level cut the. deficit on but it's put back the government's. were should know if the had not had the south has as you. could get but was for. the previous day these release had also tasted success on that eastern front. ending the short lived rule launched by jordan's king crossing. by eleven o'clock in the morning the first day visually after we destroyed the egyptian post but. in no into that. on the contrary enough so called him up and said will winning will winning do your own share. he didn't. need

a fence if it was in the name of the doing but he conquered the hills along the government calls it endangered the insulting part of those on them and his forces were only by now a few hundred yards away from his lead me house and cell phones and this is that. on the often news of the first day of the war. the israelis began their assaults against the jordanians. that box so soon escalate. and two days later the whole of the west bank and jerusalem fell to the israelis. my for the mayor then the. it's slim the so given that the whole of it. being.

the vote the vote the should be on i get it then your news is awful and then. the cost. will. with the wool but ovah on the egyptian and jordanian fronts and ignoring a un cool for a cease fire israel's high command now decided to secure its borders with syria. on the fifth day of war israeli troops began to climb the strategic golan heights. and. steal. from jewish in the beneath it had but more lives and will continue to have good reason to be a little more true that. on the other modoc at some almost and then we are.

as a man and not it's a definite look at me and just leave. us alone. trudie yes she said that. but on the sixth day of the rule damascus radio made an unexpected announcement. syria had accepted the u.n. cease fire. with no advance warning given to troops fighting on the cover not the broad cost fatally undermined the syrian army resistance. the man blamed for the army's cops was the minister of defense. a man who defends tree rise to power in syria. hafiz an assault. the israelis pushed on and occupied the whole of the golan heights.

let me. sleep. there to see it and that the are that it's true that it could. not but in the south but i. assume. at the end of the sixth day of fighting and only one attempt achieved all its goals israel accepted the u.n. cease fire. the guns fell silent. the arabs had suffered a humiliating defeat. me. a while you have fifty.

but in many. of the how more than many people in the. well i did. and that i do not a. lot of. mammon. when i had a. month of it arrest me. when i didn't see. or hear. he would be. more open and. under heavy popular pressure nasa rescinded his decision to step down from the presidency. and attempts to regain the last arab

territories began. israel had tripled its size capturing the sinai peninsula the gaza strip the west bank eastern jerusalem and the golan heights. we tried everything into the united nations we tried mediations we tried contacts with different countries and it was clear that all this was to no avail. the mood was let's give nothing back if you don't have to there are songs written there were victory albums there were the huge intoxication of victory. this huge unique miraculous victory of the israeli army in that war was the greatest tragedy in the history of islam.

the israelis basked in an aura of invincibility. but their victory was just the start of even greater complications. which still plagued the middle east to this day. israel found itself governing and being responsible full a million palestinians in the newly occupied gaza strip west bank and jerusalem. to could vote six months to. nearly. all those. most in the west bank and then they came back and they said. there was other people there and they have a national movement. so what do we do if there are we we conquer them and

create. a pot of state or we half the loaf to move predominantly jewish state called israel and the west bank and gaza should be a basis for future negotiations. dition of their rights to have a state of their own the viable state of the old in the west bank and gaza. what israel chose was and still remains the first option. in the aftermath of the war israel declared what it called the unification of jerusalem. the entire holy city was placed under israeli jurisdiction including christian and muslim holy sites.

we are the government and the only government in the area that is just a good we have obligations and privileges and duties there of litigation and fairly still maintain law and order and to provide the people with services and away she to believe standard of living as a garment like every government was its citizen. furthermore and in defiance of international law israeli settlers began to move into the west bank the territory they cooled judea and samaria. the lands which they want to settle in who are the core and heartland of the jewish people in biblical times as rigid as an emerged as it was natural that there would be this

messianic urge to settle those areas. even perhaps even clear out arabs from these areas and this didn't happen but jewish settlements were placed there and this is made things much more complicated for peacemaking here. in addition to the west bank settlements were spreading in the gaza strip sinai and on the golan heights. and as the israelis tighten their grip on the occupied territories it became clear they had no intention of returning them. how you need to get. a bomb to. muslims it will go on a block away and it will be that guy says an elephant could have a new lock on the sleeve yet i'm in the in a mob when the. whole cloth is

a pointing at them to nickel box one of them that all too old to wear this. one is to give me an optical what then yeah but in mock the folks like that. in october one thousand nine hundred seventy three after just six years the arabs aiming to restore their territories and their dignity would launch another war. israel was about to receive a shot from mind of the founder of billet see it through to ted concrete forever and the war of june one thousand nine hundred sixty seven.

however we've still got some rather disturbed weather into the middle east not too much to speak of the truth and i mean of course northern parts of the region at that you can see a little bit of cloud spilling out to turkey i'm sure that's the black sea towards the caspian sea bass places of cloud and right and also into that far eastern side of afghanistan is pushing over towards the high ground there will chain of storms there pushing up into turkmenistan into the. driest guys come back in behind a few showers there from northern parts of iran as we go on through sunday monday same weekend some big a lot of these showers here could lead to some localized flooding society one to watch out for elsewhere is generally fine and dry so far to try really hot and dry forty two for baghdad that's hot enough twenty eight a pleasant twenty eight therefore by report that also a breeze just feeding in from the mediterranean sea pleasant across the web and

potentially hot sunny side boarding hot here in qatar temperatures getting up to forty seven celsius on sunday on places the easy back a touch as we go on through monday no higher than around forty five celsius hopefully the wind is easing off a little so that's just picking back about a little bit so we'll see they lifted dust in the sand not so much of a problem south africa generally fine and dry little bit of cloud easing its way to the eastern cape. more than forty thousand africans are facing deportation from israel is awarded more than ninety percent of their trying to accept a repeat of the way into the euro almost zero point one per cent of civil liberties to have those in danger of being thrown out of the country in which they sought refuge talks how jazeera at this time the.

jews in europe. where ever you were. president donald trump heads to singapore for his meeting with north korea's kim jong un has already landed ahead of the summit according to local media. i'm jane doesn't this is al-jazeera live from doha it's a coming up china has been hosting its own summit the shanghai cooperation

organization but it won't be at the singapore meeting we examine the major role it will still play plus. canadians were polite were reasonable but we also will not be pushed over. canada response to attacks by u.s. president donald trump after he rejected the g seven summits concluding statement on twitter. nearly two hundred people missing of course mottos volcano eruption but emergency workers say there is little hope of finding survivors. just a few moments ago north korean leader kim jong un is reported by local media to have landed in singapore head of choose days summit with the us president donald trump left the g seven talks in canada and is currently on his way to singapore he called the talks a one time shot at peace the trumpet ministration is hoping the summit will begin

a process that eventually leads to kim ending his nuclear program china's been hosting its own summit will have more from florence lawyer in beijing but first we begin with adrian brown in singapore where the summit will be held according to local media editor and he's there talk us through what's going to be happening next. yes that's quite right media here in singapore has reported that kim jong un arrived here during the past fifteen minutes we understand he arrived on an air china flight that had been allocated to him by the chinese government that's very significant because it shows of course the china is still very much in the mix as regards this summit even though president xi jinping will not be attending it it was a seven hour flight and this ensured that of course the air craft passed through chinese airspace for as long as possible passing even across the island of finance

and then down into southeast asia now there has been very very tight security the north koreans of course always worried about the prospect of that assassination attempt but the chinese i think were able to say we can guarantee your security if you are in one of our aircraft one of our aircraft passing through our airspace now of course this is only the second international flight that the north korean leader has taken since he became leader of his country at the end of two thousand and eleven the last flight he took was to the city of daraa in northeast china a few weeks ago when he met president xi jinping now later today we understand the north korean leader will be meeting with singapore's prime minister who of course is hosting these two world leaders president donald trump and kim jong un and of course singapore is anxious for this also goes smoothly because if this is a successful summit then singapore of course is going to bask in the diplomatic

limelight and driving in from the airport now of course jane kim jong un will be looking at this more than metropolis and wondering you know is it possible that one day perhaps even some of this could rub off on my own country could i perhaps turn north korea into something similar to singapore one day if it all goes well you know the united states china and others have said they're prepared to give financial assistance to. north korea but of course their head lies months perhaps years of complex negotiations and that of course will begin on tuesday when that summit opens here in singapore this will be a moment of real history here we have orderly controlled singapore playing host to two of the world's most unpredictable leaders and i mean it is potentially quite exciting and he could possibly kim jong un get exactly what he wants but he has to play the game we don't know what the game is yet between him and trump is on his

way over what are the expectations now from both sides. well i think the expectations are that there could possibly be broad agreement on an agreement to end formally end the korean war at the moment we have an armistice which basically means we've got the world's longest running ceasefire there is i think a real optimism a belief that perhaps we could have a formal peace treaty not necessarily signed now but an agreement to sign some time in the future and then of course there's the more complex issue of denuclearization and both united states and north korea have very different definitions of what that should be and indeed how long it should take and whether it applies to first long range nuclear missiles followed by short range nuclear missiles there are a normal obstacles to sort out and no one is underestimating the size of this diplomatic challenge remember you know north korea and the united states are still

two countries who are technically at war they are sworn enemies and yet in singapore they will be sitting down face to face but as we know with these two unpredictable leaders the only thing that's really certain is of course uncertainty and we watch that slow cavalcade moving its way into the center of singapore thanks to that age and a north korea's closest ally china hasn't been in via. to take part in the singapore summit but as florence laurie reports beijing's influence is already obvious. welcome to dandong city on the chinese border with north korea here you get a sense of china's relationship with its neighbor a large part of it to even by trade chinese goods flow across the border although international sanctions have slow this down somewhat china has long been a close ally of north korea siding with the north in the korean war in one nine hundred fifty and then providing it with political and economic backing since. in

recent years though north korea's pursuit of nuclear arms accelerated under its young leader kim jong un has strained relations but it's in both countries interest to preserve the alliance especially when it comes to dealing with the world's superpower the united states. china uses north korea as a poll to tell the u.s. if you press me on the trip war i can exert more influence on north korea as for north korea it goes say to the u.s. it's not just me negotiating with you i have china supporting me so you can be too harsh on me and knew to take things out of my own pace many analysts say the upcoming summit between u.s. president donald trump and north korean leader kim jong would not be taking place if not for china's backing in announcing that the summit would take place on tuesday trumpet mentioned chinese president xi jinping whom he said had helped out

quite a bit with this but only a week before that he had blamed china for north korea's hostile attitude which had led him to cancel the meeting last month or in early may kim met president xi in the chinese city of dalin and trump suggested that kim's attitude changed after that meeting but with the summit now back on many will be looking to see what china gets out of it. china doesn't want western in floors at the door china was a buffer zone but it is paying a heavy price to maintain the keim rejean china wants to join the reconstruction work in north korea was this a stone the news that the summit is now back on has generated optimism that sanctions on north korea may ease and with that a boom in business. property prices have soared leading the local government to tighten regulations china recently resumed flights between beijing n.p.r.

young china may not be at the negotiation table but they'll be looking to make its presence felt. china's been hosting the shanghai cooperation organization summit let's go live now to florence or here is in beijing and what's come out of it so far. well you know some analysts see this shanghai cooperation organization or f c o as a counterweight to the groupings and let the lead dominated by the u.s. and its allies now this organization is made up of eight members it's led by china and russia it was set up in two thousand and ones and nearly two decades ago now recently included india and pakistan and its grouping and with that it represents about forty percent of the world's population but only about twenty percent of the world's g.d.p. so in terms of economic and trade it isn't really a heavyweight but because it's got china and russia it is a bit of

a these are two heavyweights in the international arena and we've already seen some leaders taking the opportunity using this summit as a chance to speak up to speak up we've seen we've heard the iranian president criticize the u.s. for what he calls unilateralism in withdrawing from the iranian nuclear deal not only that he's praised russia and china for their efforts in mend taining that deal so we could likely see going forward as perhaps this grouping not just acting as a counterweight to existing groupings led by the u.s. and its allies but also this grouping perhaps gaining in importance and prominence in the years to come now we're also seeing that we've also seen what happened at the g. seven this weekend with perhaps u.s. allies down feeling that they can no longer count on the u.s. traditionally their allies for support and for leadership we've seen how the u.s. pulled out of the paris climate accord as well in the rainy and nuclear deal so

this is an opportunity for other countries to step up and if not to try and fill the void to at least act as a counterbalance to the existing world order thank you for that. now earlier the annual g. seven summit ended was an escalating round between the u.s. and canada after leaving the meeting early for his trip to singapore donald trump withdrew his backing of a joint communique signed by the group's leaders he blamed it on what he called weak and dishonest statements from the canadian prime minister john hendren has more from quebec city. the g. seven summit in canada began in crisis in ended in conflict u.s. president donald trump came late left early and ceded no ground as united states has been taken advantage of for decades and decades and we can't do that anymore i can gradually the leaders of other countries for so crazily

being able to make these trade deals that was so good for their country and so bad for the united states neither did the six other world leaders at the g. seven summit they were united in opposing trumps tariffs on steel and aluminum a move they say is likely to spark a trade war after the host of the summit canadian prime minister justin trudeau fired back i highlighted directly to the president that canadians did not take it lightly that the united states has moved forward with significant tariffs on our steel and aluminum industry particularly did not take lightly the fact that it's based on a national security reason that it's kind of insulting but we also will not be pushed around. from air force one on his way to singapore to meet north korean leader kim jong sent off an angry tweet calling dishonest and weak all seven nations had papered over the trades bad signing in a green.
