how did you know to trust them not to trust. a stranger came to town witness on al-jazeera. this is al jazeera. hello i'm rob matheson and this is the news hour live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes arriving back to outrage donald trump's backing of putin at the helsinki summit as the russian leader talking of an end to isolation. palestinian children cut to their summer holidays shorts to protect their communities school from demolition in the occupied west bank. be aware what a trade war could bring the i.m.f.

warns of a global recession and financial crisis. the central in paris the victorious french football team gets an official welcome home after that extraordinary world cup. donald trump has just arrived back in washington and will soon have to answer questions about what he said at a summit with the blood amir puton the white house says he'll now meet members of congress on tuesday amid fierce criticism from both his republican party and the democrats for defending russia over allegations of meddling in the twenty sixteen election he met the russian leader for more than two hours in the finnish capital helsinki and putin is now calling it the beginning of russia's path back from western isolation much of the focus has been what was said in

a news conference when trump sided with moscow instead of his own intelligence agencies in the u.s. transfer marks have been described as bizarre dangerous even treasonous we're going to have more on that in a moment but first this from a diplomatic editor james pace. we face to face ahead of a solo meeting a meeting that lasted over two and a half hours but if you were hoping they would solve any of the world's problems you'll be sorely disappointed instead when they spoke to reporters their comments were dominated by their views on the most toxic political issue in the u.s. an issue that just got more controversial as they seemed mainly to agree on it during today's meeting i addressed directly with president putin the issue of russian interference in our elections i felt this was a message best delivered in person spend a great deal of time talking about it and president putin may very well want to

address it and very strongly because he feels very strongly about it and here's an interesting idea putin then explained that idea he'd get russian authorities to interview the twelve hackers even though the allegation is they were working on behalf of those same or forces or he said they could set up a joint us russian investigation team and with one condition north of the witness which we will this kind of effort should be a mutual one and then we would expect that the americans would reciprocate and they've they would question officials including the officers of law enforcement and intelligence services of the united states whom we believe who have something to do with illegal actions on the territory of russia trump called that an incredible offer he was then asked a straight question at every u.s. intelligence agency has concluded that russia did. what hu my first question for

you sir is who do you believe remarkably he said by switching to a completely different subject which is not part of the investigation hillary clinton's e-mails what happened to hillary clinton's e-mails thirty three thousand e-mails gone just gone i think in russia they wouldn't be gone so easily twenty two months after the election he still seems determined to reaffirm the legitimacy of his win i beat hillary clinton easily the electoral college is much more advantageous for democrats as you know than it is to republicans we won the electoral college by a lot one last question was simple yes important. president putin did you want president trump to win the election yes i totally believe yes i did because he talked about bringing the right us relationship back to normal i've lost count of the number of times over the last eighteen months that i've described

comments by president trump as extraordinary but this what was supposed to be a summit between the two most powerful leaders in the world was taking things to a new level the president may have been trying to robustly make his case about the twenty sixteen election but there seems little doubt that he's only made matters worse for himself james by al-jazeera helsinki will soon after the news conference the u.s. director of national intelligence dan coats issued a statement saying we have been clear in our assessments of russian meddling in the twenty sixteen election and their ongoing pervasive efforts to undermine our democracy and we will continue to provide unvarnished and objective intelligence in support of our national security white house correspondent kimberly hawkins following reaction in washington. for a president who loves to talk about his ratings and reviews there was nearly universal criticism members of the u.s.

congress over his performance in helsinki and his apparent acceptance of russian president vladimir putin's denial that russia interfered in the twenty sixteen u.s. election president putin he just said it's not russian but more than a dozen u.s. law enforcement and intelligence agencies have concluded just the opposite leading some members of the president's own political party to rebuke his actions republican senator john mccain called the putin trust press conference disgraceful in a statement he said the damage inflicted by president trumps night even take egotism false equivalence and sympathy for autocrats is difficult to calculate how many republicans are concerned that trouble. both countries for the deteriorating u.s. russia relationship jacked into giving what they call moral equivalence to a traditional u.s. adversary what many label a propaganda win for putin this was the primary objective of

a lot of the putin was to sow permanent instability in american society and political culture so that we're so busy fighting each other we don't have time to take him on the threat opposition democrats not surprisingly were equally outraged at what the president did side with our number one enemy who is attacking the united states daily in a variety of ways and be literally kneecapping our allies is just appalling and demands some kind of explanation the senate intelligence committee has also concluded russia meddled in the us elections and fears it will happen again in twenty eighteen there are times in the senate when people have to stand up and see which side you're right those are one of those times this is one of those times there may now be in the u.s. congress a renewed push for bipartisan legislation known as the deter act that would snap and severe sanctions against russia is oil and banking sectors should it be found

to interfere in any future u.s. election can really help al-jazeera washington. but daniel lippman the co-author of the daily newsletter political playbook he's joining us by skype from great barrington in massachusetts thank you very much indeed for your time let me ask you about that congress meeting first of all what are they going to say and is he likely to care your trunk he often goes to congress to push for his legislative priorities but he. eight wanted back from members of his own party and it's been very embarrassing for publicans who are the house seeking news conference to go as poorly as it did. and they feel like their own party is at risk who are november midterm elections if they're seen as the pro russian party and so they want to remind them that this is not the way to act you can't trust. like the way they did today in signing with

russia or intelligence agency republicans are saying that they are outwardly angry about this but is that likely to try and slate's into any sort of definitive action by republicans because of course we are talking about the midterms which are coming up in the embers you know they're going to ask for president trump's help in raising tons of money in visiting in a red states to rally republicans to win reelection or you know gain seats even though they're expected to lose a couple dozen seats in november there really is not much that they can do they are they are not going to impeach him unless there is a bombshell a smoking gun from robert muller's report which is expected later this year. and so you know this is the many moments in this presidency where they basically have

to you know they boys there are outrageous statements but they really will side with most of the rest of the time let me ask you about the meeting in helsinki was this a misstep by the president or was it a carefully calculated strategy. it might have been both he thought that he could sit down with. try to resolve some issues like syria and ukraine and crimea. but he did not it's very hard for him to get his mind wrapped around the. collusion and happiness into our elections from russia there are two different things you can expect sept. russia interfere in our elections and still accept the legitimacy of terms when and still think that trump did not collude with the russians on that but the fact that

trump is unwilling to even accept plain reality in terms of. the e-mails from russia that is just you will hear in too many americans they see that and they are you know embarrassed by his behavior you know house. we have seen this kind of behavior of course before this is becoming a part of with donald trump where things like this to happen we discuss these situations time and again i mean yet the trumpet ministration appears to roll on is this going to be a similar situation that in a couple of days time we're going to be talking about something else. yeah i was talking to one white house aide today and he said well we will reset tomorrow and by the end of the week people might be talking about something else and so the act that there is this daily outrage cycle because trump

just will continue to say something else. crazy in the many the eyes of many democrats and republicans you know and that is concerning for a news consumer but i think this moment is going to be remembered for a long time a lot of people are calling it the charlottesville for foreign policy which is you know making the u.s. and russia equal and in trump's mind just like he said about the races in virginia last year that there are good people and bad people on both sides and that's just not something that he president should say diane lippman is co-author of the daily newsletter politico playbook we appreciate your time thank you very much indeed. thank you. hundreds of thousands of people packed the show is a nice day in paris to welcome home the french football team and the world cup and

a repeat of scenes twenty years ago france beat croatia for two in sunday's final that was among the crowds. the colors of france's flag edged into the sky above paris as she was using as a new for the play is it was the one coming they had dreamed of for the fans a joyful moment they would never forget what's happening it's a party where united do have that twenty years ago and now again well champions. was not easy to take if so we had some difficulty is in france with the attacks so this is a moment of pure happiness to something. the team or one of the youngest in the tournament they use this touched people here and so has their diversity. that we are happy because it shows you can be from the suburbs and succeed i don't present they represent us because they young like us and pays only one year older than us for our son seeing things like this since nineteen ninety eight when france plus

one who woke up back then to the same table and multi-culturalism the many find it that sense of unity that the squad is actually is really similar to the one from one thousand and eight because as you said a lot off of play as a coming from the suburbs whether they're from big cities and or the from the countryside from small villages the players on the pitch show that you can come from several different backgrounds and still have good time together after the parade the french president welcome to play is to the lease a palace for a garden party attended by hundreds of teenagers from all over france the hope is that this young team can inspire the next generation to. al-jazeera paris. well as the celebrations go on across paris many fans are already in place and for the next world cup the twenty twenty two event will be played in qatar its first time in the middle east. the middle katara says he hopes the tournament will help unify a divided region from the reports from the capital doha. on big screens across

cattles capital the message is clear despite the political differences between cattle and some of its neighbors in the region the twenty twenty two world cup aims to be a source of pride for all arabs. who will try to make it an excellent world cup because this event is very important for the whole region as you know in many arab countries face difficulties the well cup will help us overcome them those are . the first world cup in the middle east the qatari citizens and the many ex-pat troops who live here there's a genuine sense of excitement it's taken the amazing. amazing eleven forcing my way to meet the first world cup ever so we have. a way i do with the forty s. . it's a don't miss in one ear and on the surface think the first cup. of coffee grounds

like this one are a reminder that for cattle posting the world cup is not without major challenges the gulf nation has faced the land and evan ok for more than a year now after saudi arabia the u.a.e. brain in egypt thought that the magic relations last year but officials here in that had little impact on preparations for the big. cattle has hosted big sporting events before including the asian games in two thousand and six and it will put on the world athletics championships next year officials say the building or the necessary stadiums roads and facilities to host a successful world cup and the hope is that sports will transcend politics and help unify a divided region victoria gates and be al-jazeera. but a more ahead on the news hour including calls for calm after days of violence in northern ireland. why mexico's newly elected president's promise to cut salaries of

public servants could cause even more problems. it may not look that impressive that this piece of concrete is the spots where the caps are twenty twenty two well come kickoff the goal behind the scenes to check on preparations for the next world cup. israel says it will impose even stricter border measures on any cargo destined to go through the crossing into gaza it said to ban all fuel imports into the area until sunday food and medicine will need permission to go through the southern crossing last week israel said it would hold exports of projects from gaza in response to what it described as continued aggressive and from hamas. earlier israeli jets hit what its military says were two hamas posts in northern gaza

threatening a fragile cease fire it says the strike was in response to austin attacks by hamas on saturday both sides accepted an egyptian brokered truce after the latest round of violence in gaza at least two palestinian teenagers were killed when israel launched what it called the most powerful daytime attack since the twenty fourteen gaza war. and the occupied west bank a palestinian school is beginning its new term six weeks early amid the looming threat of the building being demolished it's located in the small bedouin community of khan but israel wants to expand a settlement but its supreme court has blocked the move until at least next month stephanie decker sent this report. their summer holidays been cut short but none of these children seem too bothered they will know why they are here. so that we have people inside the school so the israelis won't demolish it. a sally lives

a ten minute walk away over the mountain this school doesn't only serve. but it's the only school in the area for these bedouin children. we want to demolish the whole community and transferred us and take the land these are the supreme court will set a day to respond to an appeal to stop the demolition by the fifteenth of august and as of today with the clearing of the opening of the next scholastic year which should have started on the first of september but rather today on the sixteenth of july we decided to launch its will to proceed any attempt on the part of the occupation forces to knock down the school it's not just the school which is our predestination but this entire village looks like a small basic and unimportant bedouin community that when it comes to this conflict it is all about land and who has access to palestinians tell you what is happening here is indicative of a wider israeli policy to push palestinians off this land and replace them with

israeli settlers we meet and israeli student he's come from tel aviv to see for himself what is happening here and i mean it's an obvious strategy to try to push. communities into cities and expand the settlements around here and basically clear for potential cities to jewish israeli cities settlements to expand and in the meantime make life of palestinian harder and harder that's already apparent just by looking around here the large illegal israeli settlements and smaller outposts overshadow the scattered bedouin communities the bedouin have been here since the one nine hundred fifty s. and they don't want to leave but they say israel is doing everything it can to change that stephanie decker al-jazeera. european leaders have warned china the united states and russia against a trade war as they met chinese counterparts in beijing the international monetary fund is warning the top of stick for tots that began last week could end up sending

the whole global economy plunging into recession from washington d.c. diane asked a book reports. the i.m.f. says booming economies in the united states and china continue to keep the global economy on track but warned it could be to rail if an all out global trade war breaks out between the u.s. and its trading partners these are substantial hits to growth and in an environment where. you know for many wage earners. incomes have been very slow to rise and this is a source of political pressures and so you know we kind of need all the growth we gather trade has been a disaster u.s. president donald trump fired the first shot in the trade dispute slapping tariffs on thirty four billion dollars worth of chinese goods earlier this month and threatening to up the ante to two hundred billion dollars. the u.s. also leveled tariffs on steel and aluminum against mexico canada and the european

union all countries have retaliated with similar duties on u.s. products the i.m.f. says the tariffs could shave up to a half a percentage point off of global growth by twenty twenty the i.m.f. says the tariffs come at a time when other risks threaten the global economy rising oil prices political turmoil in latin america and changing migration policies in europe the i.m.f. says growth is already slowing in europe japan and latin america. the added shock of a trade war could ripple through the global economy because trade affects about three quarters of world output the u.s. economy could also be at risk because of inflationary pressures and further retaliation but the i.m.f. says the ones who could be hurt the most are the ones who can least afford it it's usually the poorest who are who are hurt by these sorts of measures so you know.

the not the one not the way we want to go the i.m.f. thinks escalating tensions could still be avoided if the u.s. and its trading partners would negotiate with help from the world trade organization die a nest of rocks al-jazeera washington. this is the executive director of the asian trade center says joining us now from singapore thank you very much for being with us on al-jazeera perhaps you can help us with some context first of all we use phrases like trade war an all out trade war can you define what the characteristics if you like of an all out trade war would be well we're in a very unusual set of circumstances where we are leveling tariffs and counter tariffs against one another we've never seen a situation like this at least since the one nine hundred thirty s. the closest we came was in the late one nine hundred eighty s. early one nine hundred ninety s. when there was a threat of a trade war between the u.s.

and japan over autos and at that time we were approaching one billion dollars worth of sanctions at the time and that seemed catastrophic and now we're talking about figures potentially hundreds of billions of dollars so i think it's one billion dollars in the one nine hundred ninety seven catastrophic you can imagine what hundreds of billions of dollars looks like today if i understand it correctly the i.m.f. is warning that ha five percent could be shaved off global growth now this is another of these phrases that are going way beyond their own but i don't know what that means when it comes to how it would impact on real people's lives how would it affect people. well i think a half a percentage point that was just from steel or aluminum terrace so that's just the first the first salvo if you will of this trade conflict which is only the sort of them to beginning what is becoming an escalating trade war how does that affect real people trade in steel and aluminum goes into so many things

that consumers in particular need everything from you know washing machines in refrigerators to automobiles to steel pipes and everything and so the issue there is that you have to pay more for those products that firms have to pay more for those components and parts and in order to pay twenty five percent more over night because that's the extent of those tariffs many firms are finding themselves unable to do so and literally closing their doors leading to job losses bankruptcy six cetera and the longer this goes on the harder it is for firms to sustain economic growth the more you have bankruptcies job losses accent or other more prices escalate the more inflation pressure leads becomes and that's why they're suggesting overall reduction in global growth which i think is alarming especially since that's only from the first round of these trade disputes that we're having as you move towards the greater problems between the u.s.

and china especially the tariff escalation between u.s. and china that also is going to reduce global trade growth and lead to greater challenges from the global economy and for consumers and started talking about china and the u.s. specifically we're talking about two nations which have very considerable resources at their disposal is there any in the sense of on either side to find a solution to this quickly. but i think the challenge here is that even if they had an incentive to find a solution it's not clear how they get there because there are no negotiations planned between the two sides there's no pathway as far as i can tell to get to a solution and so even if one of the two parties said ok i get in today today's the day or die and let's finish let's wrap this up how do they get there how do they actually conclude these negotiations today it's not obvious what that would look like and so i think the real challenge to me of this this conflict between the u.s.

and china is that there's no obvious solution to the problem and as an added challenge it's not just the u.s. and china that's at risk because so much of the globe is connected together see through supply chains and so forth what looks like a u.s. china dispute is actually spilling over or will begin to rapidly spill over into other parts of the global economy so it will affect a lot of other individuals and firms in places that may not have even realize they're at risk i understand for a new say that no solution is immediately obvious but clearly there has to be some way out of this as there is some recourse for example to the world trade organization as diana was mentioning in her report that maybe some sort of mediation would be able to work in this case. well we have so many lawsuits pending at the dubby cio at the moment between the u.s. and china and all of the major players at the moment over steel and aluminum and

now over the the issues between the u.s. and the chinese that you know i think that you are taxing the w t o system to its maximum system i might add that the united states is continually undermining with not putting judges on the on the bench so it's a it's it's not obvious that the w t o system could resolve this i think what you really need is the u.s. and china to sit down in a bilateral basis to resolve the challenge and there it's not clear at this moment how you get there who's who's the person who would have to say i'm going to reach out and say i'd like to sit down with who i don't know but sit down with somebody and start those dialogue that discussion again because neither side at the moment is willing to sit down while terrorists are in place and neither side is willing to take the tariffs away in order to have that conversation so you have that you know the sort of game of chicken where the two cars are coming towards each other and

neither one of them is willing to swerve or pas or put the brakes on before they collide and that i think is the real difficulty that we're having right now between the u.s. and chinese. as executive director of the asian trade center we appreciate your time on thank you very much indeed thank you. still ahead an al-jazeera rise in hate crimes in the u.s. has one minority group changing the agenda for its national convention why the yemeni islanders a culture is struggling to recover months after a cycle slammed into the tiny island and in sports channel the nano is officially unveiled a juventus player we'll hear from him later in the hour. i . mean the weather sponsored by cattle.

trying to calm their community following several days of violence that included an attack on the home of former sinn fein leader gerry adams lawrence live reports from belfast. keeping a lid on violence in northern ireland is always virtually impossible but here with the republican leadership calling for calm not between the two traditional sides in the conflict but inside its own community the points of the rally was an attempt by irish nationalists to prove they can police themselves against the rising tide of anger in fact come along with even to stand in solidarity and testimony to hear about our summer always means trouble but this wasn't fighting between irish republicans and pro british loyalists in the city republicans called very hard core elements sent children out to throw stones at the police apparently in the hope someone might get shot they're accused of wanting to bring down the peace process by their own side and restart the armed struggle. but also explains an attempted

attack on the home of gerry adams the formation fein leader who brokered the peace process a powerful firework more an insult than a genuine attempt on his life irish republicans are prepared to hear any interest but none the less of the time of such political uncertainty in the province the last thing they need miss going to people who knows the facts understand. that you will think. that we will prevail. then we win over. and then we will be deny ever you know i think. that magic words you were you know i think. isolated maybe an act in the heat of summer they hope so the backdrop of course all of this is a gigantic power vacuum in northern irish politics with no functioning local government for eighteen months and the british administration still in terrible

trouble over breakfast which could still lead to the emergence of a hard border in islands it is assumed that the people who attacked gerry adams and set the riots might want to it's not that hard border as well as a sign of partition in the still divided islands. in the end this was a display of shielding gerry adams personally from harm as well as portraying him as a man both of peace and of the people the picture is aimed squarely at the republican community it has proved over the course of years its ability to move away from violence it seems it is now being goaded not by a traditional enemy the british but a section of its own selling. the al-jazeera belfast. crowds of march through nicaragua as capital managua to demand justice for those killed in operations by police several people have died during a violent siege at the church on saturday the catholic church has been leading peace talks between the government and the opposition but there's been little

anything since trump's election a documented rise of hate crimes in the u.s. has troubled civil rights activists a white supremacist rally in charlottesville virginia last summer and it in the death of a counter protester trump blamed the violence on both sides since then video showing apparent racism toward blacks at coffee shops and other businesses have gone viral and the trump administration separated migrant families at the border and days ago the president declared europe was losing its culture trapped in pre racism and hatred he's only opened the door for those to practice it out loud the question now is how to channel the outrage that many american minorities feel toward the trump administration into something useful for that they end up looking toward the upcoming midterm election hoping that it's voters will have a democrat every day for all of congress. for turning out black voters in november

may be difficult african-american turnout fell in the twenty sixteen election when the nation's first black president was no longer on the ballot. many attribute hillary clinton's loss to the lack of enthusiasm among african-americans everyone who believes and knows that this hateful bigoted administration needs to be voted out of mesa to do it right. despite the upcoming challenge few nationally known democrats are speaking at the convention. a sign that minority voter turnout in november will depend on the grassroots to show up castro al-jazeera san antonio texas still ahead they came second but they're still number one with their fans croatia's footballers get a big welcome. have

. thank you very much as they have been hearing world cup winners france have been celebrating their triumph with fans in paris after beating croatia four two in sunday's final and russia the team returned to the french capital and showed off the trophy to hundreds of thousands of supporters a packed onto the chandeliers a. and they might not have won the main prize but croatia's world cup team returned home to a hero's welcome to fans turned out in their thousands to greet the players in the
