those are your headlines the news continues here on al-jazeera after inside story. a platform for cooperation or division the g 20 summit has now dropped off in the saca and japan's prime minister says consensus has been reached on some issues but in an increasingly divided world come global powers find common ground and if so how this is inside story.

hello and welcome to the program today with me peter dopy the world 7 biggest economies the g. 7 mushrooms and the g. 20 following the asian financial crisis in 1990 the g. 20 summit is the world's biggest annual gathering of world leaders 2nd only to the un general assembly this is g 20 in japan had a different focus leaders instead focusing their own cooperation among themselves to solve problems rather than the summits usual themes of sustainable growth health and innovation the threat of war between the united states concentrated minds in a saka so did the trade war between the world's 2 largest economies the u.s. and china however the closing remarks of some leaders could signal a breakthrough on major issues. isn't the step thought in not if trade tensions are continuing and there's a risk so we have to keep those risks and tensions in mind still we have agreed to

unite in order to lead the world economy there are some dissatisfactions between countries so although there are concerns what we have to do is establish principles in order to relieve the world economy into the future a free fair and inclusive economy and open competition those principles have been affirmed by the leaders at this g. 20 meeting. basically we agreed today that we were going to continue the negotiation which i ended a while back and we're going to continue the negotiation that we agreed that i would not be putting tariffs on the 320 $5000000000.00 that i would have the ability to put on if i wanted there. we're you know we've barely advanced depending on where you want to look at and where you want to start pretty advanced. our actions regarding our partners will always be tit for tat who will treat them in the same way to treat us i would like everyone to remember this similar no work on. china in the united states both benefit from cooperation and

lose in a confrontation cooperation in dialogue are better than friction and confrontation well the g 20 summit was established to respond to global financial challenges but world leaders are expected to find solutions in all the areas to the g 20 accounts for 85 percent of global g.d.p. but the trade between the world's top 2 economies the u.s. and china well that's costing other countries as well climate change is another major global challenge so is migration and displacement with major humanitarian consequences worldwide this year's g 20 was overshadowed by the threat of war between the u.s. and iran and the saudi crown prince mohammed bin cell man continued to face accusations over the murder of the saudi journalist jamal khashoggi. ok there we are here we go let's bring in the panel today joining us from kyoto

nancy snow she's the paks monday professor of public diplomacy at kyoto university of foreign studies from moscow victor live each leader expert at the center for actual politics and in washington we have richard wets security analyst at wick a strat welcome to you all when see snow in kyoto can a country 1st please nancy you spent 3 days there tell us what the atmosphere was like. well the atmosphere for the leaders it looked like there were a lot of meetings but for most of the people osaka they were highly and convenience there were a lot of streets shut down schools were closed it was somewhat to be been a ghost town around the international exhibition center what it's called in texas and i really went there looking to talk to the people i thought there would be some protests or people there to relate comments and it seemed like people were going about their business but not really too concerned or intrigued at all by the cheap

20 up that them the end to be. richard which in washington can the g. 20 ever genuinely come up with a real across the board common message on all the issues certainly not all the issues but on some it can it was easier when the lead form was the g 7 g 8 since they tended to be one and excluding russia special status by the liberal democracies with similar industrial profile some miller outlook someone calls so it's easier to get the g. 7 to come up with these hanura statements and cream and communique as with many many provisions what the g 20 it's of course harder some issues are probably unobjectionable all whereas others here certainly are going to see major differences between important countries that will block consensus and big to leave

it in moscow multilateralism is a very difficult thing at the best of times but when you've got the elephant in the room which is this paused trade war between washington and beijing multilateralism sure surely an impossibility. well of course surjeet winds here are feared on the world stage much as a result of the financial crisis of 20072008 when it became apparent that there were new economic players in the world that were not bierria slee included in the just 7 g 8 and of course since then the positions of major powers have only they have to apart even more and as we have seen. in the past few months and years the positions of washington and beijing have they have to par and there doesn't seem to be an and insight to this confrontation despite several

cease fires the latest of which was announced to be you know that the talks would be in the united states and chain nancy's new coming back to kyoto i mean is is the starting point for the g. 20 now wherever they have this summit. in november of next year is the starting point always now going to be a restatement of the starting positions or is it going to be a starting point of ok we are going to go for consensus. well it seems like it's going to be determined a lot by the host i would imagine that saudi arabia's going to be a very very different host nation it was quite noticeable to me i was mocked on a touring twitter and you would think that twitter would matter but ever since donald trump was elected in 2016 it matters more than ever and the saudi arabian government whether through its ministry of foreign affair or search just the

central government there was so active on twitter and promoting the n.b.s. and really had control of that and but it was more about the personalities i think that we're talking about building consensus but i wonder what were the issues that really came out of this beyond the personality clashes because i would often see coverage where it was china versus the u.s. but it was really he says trump or it was trump versus who. it's becoming a state that's relate dominated by these strong personalities for sure it was dominated here by donald trump even though chip a and was the chair of the summit in japan it least a stance of late wanted to promote issues of empowerment of women and also about the environment and cleaning up the oceans i was at a briefing in tokyo

a week before the cheap 20 and the emphasis was on smart plastics and chip and wanting to get the other nations on board with strong change. in update on the environment well do we really see that come out of this summit it seemed to have been driven more by the g.d.p. and global economy and it makes you wonder what is so different about the g 20 and what was said earlier too there are some many different players now. i was and he saved him go g 7 which of course took me and hosed to 3 years ago and that was a lot more used i mean user friendly to 2 viewers i think there was more excitement around that than this time richard quest in washington is what nancy snow in kyoto is talking about a dynamic that is primarily associated with all big clubs big clubs of different

countries the bigger they get the less powerful they get. well i suppose you could say that as a general rule with obvious exceptions the thing is the g 7 was special and some ways in the various times it almost claimed asserted itself as global the global leader of the world economy almost trying to assert some functions from the un because it also dealt with security issues and had a major role in helping. to remove chemical weapons and from russia and it had i mean there are series of intense subgroups it was 1st of much more a lab or structure but the problem was that you had countries that were members of the subban that were becoming more important in the world economy above all china so many of its economic functions at devolved to this larger group so it's theoretically possible i suppose that if you had in the u.s.

and china or our next couple other countries that were the had the dominant wrong picture policy area that they would be all the bring on the others to get consensus but when you get in very divisive issues climate change globalization and so on then i think what you're going to see is stalemate fragmentation and a priority on the lateral side that means on the sidelines between world leaders victor in moscow coming to you we had this 3 way relationship between donald trump vladimir putin and the saudi crown prince mohammed bin selma on the face of it those 3 men get on very very well with each other what does vladimir putin get out of that relationship point number one point number 2 what are those 3 countries in agreement if they're not in agreement on trade if they're not in agreement on conflict in the middle east where is the common ground. well of

course they lation ship if you're in the united states and the russia on the one hand and the relationship between washington and on the other hand have to be looked at in different perspective since the saudi arabia has been an ally of the united states and the united kingdom since since its founding and of course since donald trump has been an outspoken proponent of realist foreign policy somebody who has not been really keen on morro grandstanding he has been. he says he is ok with letting sensual letting the just go with the killing of pressure will give washington post. journalist who had been killed in the saudi consulate in tierra q last year.
