so this type of event. the been waiting twenty years for a. victory. and welcome to. headquarters and. also ahead donald trump says relations with russia have. made to change. that decades of will. to take a stand against the government.

you can hold the. money. that we. feel what. we really are. put it on the back to reality was. the theme

because they see this meeting. i believe the putin of the plantation he put it to you he's pretty good at that but we must eat from being the supplier of rubbish he is too. and exporting barely read it but then for them. to order but it needs. to be able to enjoy the finest cup of tea in the world. the morsel wonderful herb in the wood at the chinese feet. off the gods. problems food to a nation seventy. three years old who would go. there if the quad solution among consumers to go to quality in bed happened to on you would be born. creeped t.

read the same enjoyment as if big debility the deed about predict what use will people still on the. back and. old you know. victory for the country and president vladimir putin it's going to our russia hosp on a droid challenge he is joining us live from the capital a day after what's been widely regarded as a successful world cup so the party is over but will there be any lasting changes the positives that we saw and russia during the world cup will any of those changes remain. well look i think of course there is going to be

a physical legacy from this world cup there are places like surrounds small cities in russia which now have gleaming new stadiums that the thirty thousand people plus they're not necessarily going to know what to do with those then there is war this happens to the people of this country and the warm afterglow of this world cup the fact that many many russians particularly of a younger generation have come out onto the streets they've been mingling with foreigners in a way they don't usually get to do connecting with them building friendships and i think many people would hope that that is going to be a legacy of this world cup that the fact that perhaps russians. are not necessarily seeing themselves as a kind of besieged fortress in the way that they quite often do and then beyond that there's a kind of policy shift that we might see as a result of this world cup one of the things that russia is i think toying with at

the moment is the prospect of relaxing it's a visa system there was an announcement made on sunday that actually for the rest of the year anyone who's come here and got their fan aidid to come and watch the matches which essentially replaced the visa that you normally have to get to visit russia well they'll be able to keep on using that bees are. id to come back to russia for the rest of the year whether or not they'll do that we'll have to wait and see but it's possible that russia is experimenting with a relaxation of its visa system and there of course is like the wider policy. landscape of russia there's an anecdote that was doing the rounds on social media and in the press while the world cup was going on of a man who full flow in the party went up to the police who were standing there watching what was going on and said hey i was going to still be able to drink my beer on the streets of moscow once the world cup is finished and the policeman responded are you russian well then i'm afraid no story so maybe russians are going

to go back to the kind of policing that they normally used to avoid thank you very much for that for now that is roy hallums joining us live from moscow thank you for the countdown is on for the twenty twenty two cup the world cup which will be the first time that one of them has played in the middle east child stratford was amongst excitement at a world cup fans on and the capitalist are. you'd be forgiven for thinking that the world cup has already started hearing because of this crowd representative of the old and fifty different nationalities that live in this country it doesn't matter who you speak to everybody will tell you how excited they are about the world cup coming to cut off on the middle east for the first time in a second the amazing. amazing in every possible way to say to me the basement of captivity. soviet exhibit. why way we had to rig the forty is he said don't you think when you get on an honest look at this thing that

was not. there not. a cool solution the world cup in qatar such a small but exceptionally wealthy country is not without major challenges and that's not the gate the culture is space the saudi led land air and sea blockade of the year now the cultural sources are saying that's made very little to date on the progress that they make in building the infrastructure in addition syria to host this event and certainly tonight the sense of excitement you get into the school is an indication of just how proud casa reason the many different people who live here are about hosting what will be arguably the largest school to give aid to this region has ever seen. let's move on to other news now in u.s. president dong trump has declared that relations between his country and russia awas than ever as he prepares for a summit when they lead him a potent and fragile and trampas in helsinki where he's met the finnish president in the lead up to his one on one with potent the discussions happening against

a backdrop of fraying western alliances and the ongoing investigation into alleged russian meddling in the two thousand and sixteen u.s. election which way to end not long ago president trump said relationship with russia has never been worse facts to many years of the us and stupidity and now the very twitchy. and let's get more on the diplomatic editor james joining us live from hell thinking quite the statement james from the president head of the summit and interestingly blaming the u.s. for the violations that according to him are worse than ever. yes blaming the obama administration a very familiar line when it comes to the election meddling not even contemplating that meddling resulted potentially in his election and putting all the blame on the obama administration that has been the consistent line from president trump who has

also suggested that this isn't a major issue when he spoke at nato he said of course law fing bring up your favorite issue referring to reporters of election meddling the day of diplomacy has started in the last twenty minutes or so with president trump arriving at one of the two presidential palaces there's one who is the one that is the residence of one that's the working place of the president. and he's at the residential home of the president right now and interestingly there he was asked about nato and the spending on nato and he said that the spending was much higher for nato and he looked at the finish president and just said just ask the president well that suggests to me that president trump in that moment at least believes that finland is a member of nato finland is a member of the e.u.

it's not a member of nato a minor gaffe perhaps but it's a detail and details are what are going to matter in his chats with president putin who is a man who is a master of the detail of international diplomacy and as you noted in your coverage in the lead up to the summit james you know putin has been in power either as. president or prime minister for eighteen years trump eighteen month. yeah absolutely trump is a man who says that he wants to do his business by trying to get to know the. president putin and not by reading briefing papers but of course president putin doesn't need to read the briefing papers he's been in country in power of his country for longer than any western leader elections come and go western leaders come and go putin has stayed since the year two thousand but of course is experience goes back much before that dealing with international relations and the

cold war he studied law he was a k.g.b. officer in fact his k.g.b. service started forty two years ago so he has an amazing resume he's known by those that have negotiated with him in the past as a savvy negotiator coming in the way that he sometimes gets on with his opponents and persuades them to do things that perhaps they wouldn't want to do and there is such a range of issues here and no fixed agenda and it seems not that many planning meetings held with the white house the state department and president trump before this important summit in just a matter of hours james very much looking forward to your coverage after the summit as it gets underway but we will leave it there for now that is our diplomatic editor james bays live in health well as that meeting goes on that you and chinese leaders are meeting and chairing when discussions have been dominated by

president trump trade. china correspondent adrian brown and european council president adrian out once again i think the second time in two weeks making another passionate speech about this about this president what did he say. that's right it was a very urgent and impassioned plea by donald tusk he's here in beijing part of a high level e.u. delegation that's participating in the twentieth edu china summit of course on paper elizabeth china and the european union would appear to have a lot in common right now both have tariffs imposed on them by president donald trump both are quarrelling with trump over his trade policies china would very much like to form a sort of coalition a united front with europe against president donald trump but i sense that european leaders are very wary of doing that particularly as president from but at the

moment is weighing up whether to impose tariffs of up to twenty percent on imports of all european car so they don't want to antagonize him in any way but certainly don't want to came here with a message aimed not just that is host china but also at the leaders of russia and the united states this is what he had to say it is a common duty of europe and china america and russia not to destroy this of the. but to improve it not to start through a divorce. which turned into a hot conflict so often in our history. but to bravely responsibly reform the rules based international order. european council president donald tusk there adrian given the concerns that you mentioned that europe has about getting

too close to china what are the chances here at the c.u. china summit of real solidarity on those important issues like trade. well elizabeth in the last few minutes both sides have released a joint communique it runs to sort of forty four points so i won't tell you everything that's on it but the ring to think of really stood out for me was china saying it remains committed to the world trade organization and it would go along with reform of the world trade organization china is essential is saying that as the world's second largest economy we don't just want to follow the rules we also want to make up the rules so that is i guess encouraging the e.u. has been pushing china to join them in reforming the w t o china joined the w t o seventeen years ago and you know at the core of president donald trump is complaints about china is the fact that he says china simply doesn't play by the

rule book that was made by the world trade organization but china is now saying that it will go along with the idea of revising that the reason why the e.u. is i think encouraged by that is it means it might possibly constrain some of china's policies but i think you know we are a long way away from reform of the w t o although i understand the head of the w t o is actually due here in china on tuesday so a lot happening on many fronts right now elizabeth adrian thank you very much for that for now that is adrian brown live in beijing thank you but the weather is next and then a test of media freedom in myanmar as two journalists reported on the hedge a crisis going on trial and the threat of demolition. school in the occupied west bank will get a live report on their. head

or their rain is pushing its way into the western parts of europe now to be a bit of a shock for some of us because it's been hot and dry for a while now but here's that area of cloud as it gradually edges its way eastwards and as it does so it will bring a drop to the temperatures but not too much for london there will still get to around twenty four degrees on shoes day for the south it will still be warm for many other parts of western europe but we'll also see one of two thunderstorms some of them over the alps could be rather violent and bring you some hail and some damaging gusts of wind those thunderstorms also extend down across the coast of the adriatic as well and for the eastern parts of here is a bit different here we've got an area of low pressure in charge so it's cloudy it's wet it's also not that hot and that's the way it's going to stay as we head through the next few days and no major change for us across the other side of the mediterranean you can see the winds feeding down from the north so for the north coast of egypt the temperatures on that high that go inland and the temperatures

quickly begin to jump up further west it's already pretty hot forcing chewed it up but nine degrees does change there was we had to choose they were going to change in wind direction and then our maximum would just be thirty four for the central belt of africa more showers say they have brought us a little bit of flooding in places and they'll be more lively shelves on monday. capturing a moment in time snapshots of other lives the stories. providing the clips into. inspiring documentaries passionate filmmakers everybody. on al-jazeera.
