secretary general, welcome to move the cold for further global action. we need more than by left, so all to support them, the individual countries initiatives. we need a concert so that we need a global vaccination plan and for the global escalation plan to be possible, we need all the companies that are meaningful in the election or can be with the proper support to come together. if not least, is that there will be still lives in the developing world where the virus spreads. likewise fire and the risk of mutation and the risk of new brilliance coming and becoming if you move x in the mind. the efforts, as it comes up every day to make sure that the full copulation is actually chili's capsule has gone into long down. despite more than half its population being fully vaccinated. the number of cases in santiago has surged by 25 percent over the past 2 weeks. intensive care beds have almost run out. molly's transitional government

news, news, news. we gaining leadership on the well stage us president joe biden is meeting world leaders in europe, and he's promising america is back. but after 4 to most years under his predecessor who can find him delivered, this is inside story. ah, ah. hello there milk into the program. i'm. how am i hidden in cornwall in the south west coast of england? the world 7 largest pars meeting to discuss, i don't think,

list of weight issues. the talks will be dominated by vaccine diplomacy, climate change, and b, building the global economy, the u. k. a u. s. president joe biden, his 1st stop and his 8 day trip to europe since taking office in january biden has said he's determined to rebuild transatlantic ties and reframe relations with russia after 4 wilkie years. and the former president donald trump, whose terrace, and withdrawal from treaties strained relations with major allies by then this meeting leaders on the sidelines on the group sessions shown a whole as more formless in cornwall. it's an extremely important weak this for joe biden. no doubt the us president's 1st trip abroad since taking office 5 months ago, and he's here in cornwall face to face with perhaps the most important allies that the u. s. has and he's here with a very clear message for them in his own words, to show that the u. s. is back back to

a global leadership role back to more traditional forms of multilateral diplomacy. and the allies, of course, extremely keen to embrace that message, particularly as their economies emerge from the pandemic. perhaps looking for fresh global direction and still refreshing the memory, the era of donald trump, confrontational, unpredictable will succeed, will job. i am convinced that well, this meeting already proceeding on the basis of agreement rather than discord. he will move on from here to brussels, to further shore up alliances with nato and the e. u, and construct what he describes as a coalition of democracies. a united front for when he sits down next week with the russian president vladimir putin and expect, jo biden's approach. there to be very, very different to his predecessor, donald trump's, who of course, famously cozy up to the russian president. ah, well let's bring in our guests from alexandria, virginia peachey, crawley,

former united states, assistant secretary of state for public affairs from brussels, catalano, c o, the sensor for european policy studies and from moscow flooding. there's certainly cough, physical sciences at the russian academy of sciences. thank you all for joining us . pc, crudely buys and wants to deliver this message that america is back. but is he planning to bring in a thing concrete to this g 7 summit in the meetings beyond other than these slogans and that very impressive vaccine pledge. well, the vaccine pledge show is very meaningful, but i think 1st and foremost it's about your bringing relations within the g 7 and beyond, you know, back to normal and normal has to implications. you know, one is so without the rank or that we had seen the during the trump years, and the other is to help the world get back with its feet in light of the pandemic

. these are enormous undertakings, and it will be important for the united states and the other leaders to demonstrate, you know, that democracies can deliver results. you know, given the competition, the real competition that does exist between the west, russia, china. well, given the priorities there, is this a sign of more robust american engage him coming in world wides down the line or is the priority really to get this normality established? why i think the united states, you know, has engaged the question is, has it been constructive? you know, for example, when donald trump 1st went to european, he suggested that to europe or the united states a great deal of money. you know, when, when joe biden visits with other nato leaders, i don't think that's going to be

a part of his lexicon. donald trump hesitated to invoke the article 5 of the nato treaty that the united states will come to the defense of, of which nato allies. i do think that, you know, constructive engagement is what the, by the ministration is hoping for. it is meaningful. but as we see with these, you know, ambitious plans, whether we're talking about vaccines, talking about climate, talking about the global economy. the challenge for all of these leaders will be delivering results that their people can tangibly feel. okay, every turn to you carol knew what does the you want from this g 7 and the subsequent meetings wave fight and that are sets take place in the days that follow? because certainly, yes, the message america is back as being delivered to bite and is not donald trump. so relations arguably will be slightly easier. but in concrete terms, what if the

e u in europe is a whole want to see come out of the summit? i the 1st thing as the assistant secretary just at the moment will also that's global or corporation amongst democracy is murky. but also that he was taking serious and that's also why shot and showed the president of the council as well with the faxing pledge to the summit this morning. check, look, the will live, are 250000000 vaccines to the world. but all the important issues we kept will be discussed, which is, for example, the recovery of the finances finish. very important issue, which is the green deal, the carbon issue. charging me should also set an interview this morning. d u. s. needs to price current. so that's a very difficult issue to discuss. but then also all the international issue can be discussed, which are on the agenda, which is china. i think extremely important to call them lined towards china from the g 7. and the results from russia and preparation you're putting, put in,

put in meeting on wednesday. ok, well, let's turn to russia then vladimir, because of joining us from moscow. this russia miss being in the g 7. this will be somewhat painful for vladimir putin. so watch from the sidelines because of course, used to be the way the g rush is no longer part of this club. well, what do you mean by saying miss, you know what we're suggesting when there was a collective decision of the j 7. i guess it was several years ago while our rights in 2014, when the starting ukrainian crisis. so bar of crimea, the g 7 decided to rush to get withdrawn from, from, from j 7 j a. sorry. so i, i don't think that russia, too much miss missed the certainly so thing because i rush actually

is south sufficient countries, patient country. and despite all the troubles with the not being a part of the j. sudden all g age, whatever you made it, russia still enjoys it's. it's all based on the joyce, it's all policies and all the countries in the g 7 are self sufficient. part of the discussions that are going on is that to me or so nicole for to try to present this united front to tackle the big issues of the day. what is russia hoping for? the g 7 obviously is, is a part nay. but russia has got an important meeting coming up with joe biden, so, so what is going to be a pearson going to be looking to get out of these meetings? and is it hoping to jump on the bandwagon to help join these initiatives to kick starts? the global economy, and despite the pandemic, well, you actually race the very good and very important questions in your in your,

your answer. in your asking me, actually, i would like to say that russian president vladimir putin. i said generally once to submit a claim, proof of the relationship with the united states and as well as with j 7 countries check in. that's all check taken them all. and actually this is jenny m genuine desire and we didn't put any preliminary conditions. i'm gonna say that's ok if we would very much like to develop relations with a european union with j 7, congress and we live in states. i think that the ball are isn't that they are part of the field extra. i mean the, there should be, if there is a genuine desire for one partner to improve the relationship not stopping and not

pushing russia against the say, the so called nevada, the problem. so while ukrainian crisis, i anything like that, i think that the general desire would be that russia would, could, to re, to, would cooperate with the j 7 would cooperate with united states. and eventually russia, again, become well in some time. and i don't, i'm not sure that it will do better soon, but in some time, russia will become a, again, the part of the, a partnership country, all the j 7 or j j. k. and so pitching curly then russia appears to be willing to cooperate. no pre conditions to talk, they will be friends again. what's the us approach going into these talks is lots of information. well, you know, some of the crises that, you know, my colleague and moscow mentioned are not so cold. they are quite real. you know,

the russian incursion into ukraine of russian attempts to either poison or jail, its political opponents, your russian interference in your western elections, including the united states. and now, you know, russia harboring cyber current criminal enterprises that are extorting money from businesses in the united states and elsewhere. i'm sure these issues will be on the agenda for joe biden, or he will address them forthrightly with vladimir putin. i think we have low expectations as to what's going to come out of this the, the reality is that the areas where the 2 countries can cooperate is shrinking. they are still their arms control would be, you know, one, you know, regional issues such as getting the parties back to the iran nuclear deal, maybe another. but the areas of conflict between the 2 countries and between russia

and europe are realistically expanding. so this is about manning a managing, a very difficult relationship in the short to mid term, not improving it in a caroline or from the european perspective. is the e. you going to be looking from assurances from joe biden, when it comes to taking the relationship with russia forwards, because you have quite split splits on this. is it not? suddenly the eastern members of the block are very keen to make sure there's a strong response to russian actions, but germany is very reliance in oil and russian gas it so they as well. they won't hurt. rebuild saudi, i think on the other line and will be on site and try and you're not so aligned. but even on china, i think you're getting closer to that. if you see something in the last year, actually by national parliaments, let's say peter pronouncements against fi lation of human rights in china. also on

the question, how does that the sky but i mean, on the russia, i think we have a common line. and certainly if you see the reaction between europe on what's happening in the russia and also the support from putting to what she was doing to be, i mean the horrible conditions we can all dish people are getting. we have shown opposition to other human doing. i mean, i think there's a strong offense, isn't that we need to do something about this. the problem is just the feel. i mean might less, let's say, against this sort of human. and that's why i mean, you know, as extremely happy, let's say that we have by the bipolar and others don't corporation, i can deliver more than we expected in the beginning. i mean, take, for example, about reinstating the troops which trump wanted to get out of germany. i mean, that's one of the 1st things which by the said, which comforts europe does. there is a security support from the united states. however, europe should be aware of the needs to do it's part of the game as well as on the

on the side. so for example, the troops and the issue which we mentioned the beginning about trump always insisting on this drapes are those material pass. and this nature, by the way, has been increasing all the time during the trump years and years to increase the 150000000. now for goods, i mean, this is also something on which europe should be read that needs to do something. and probably sherman occasions are due status to pass on certain goods which are being imported from the united states and make off from there are 2 guests in the us. and the use is they say that they have a lot of common grounds and they do want to put up a strong front against russia. but despite years of this, in russia continues its foreign policy passed on a basis. since russia feel that the, the g 7 just isn't relevant anymore. russia doesn't fear the sanctions that are being picked on it. so. so what's the points of another strong statement from the g

7? it's russia both or to toll? by what is happening at the summit? yeah, you're right, is actually a good point section of russia, russia, what? i can tell you what russia stands for, actually what, what is the russian position to watch the j 7 summit or anything like, like, as my student, american colleagues at that going in the real crisis is struggling on dela rosa ukrainian crisis. the so called poisoning of mr. volley and whatever else a rush actually full for all years. all these sanctions, russia got used to this joint position for the united states and the european union and european and the j 7. and

i even will be brave to say that russia has the sanction the actually to, to the, to this point. so this is the point and i agree with that that the, the, the strong, the strong, the strong statements on behalf of awfully j 7 seems to be relevant for them on that. because i think that for russia, the bill sion bellows crisis and whatever, not all the crisis ukrainian crisis, these are the matters which should be check out, not without. not without sorry, without the external interference. and russia will say, with a grace, katy, i would agree that there should be external, interferes. there shouldn't be russians fighting on their soil. ah, well, what do, what, how can you explain what is the russian interference? i mean that the i invaded and russian

a forcing the rest of the race. i mean, we could have this argument, but let's not have this argument. know that this illustrates the differences between the 2 positions, the position from the us, the e u, and the position from russia. you can't even agree on what crisis actually exists when you have problems like the corona virus, tackling climate change, re bones in the global economy. however, any of these issues going to be work. so do you think floods, amir? because that's a common purpose can be phones with european and american leaders are just, i think, so actually let me, let me, let me start all over again. i've been that the 1st of all, 1st of all, as you mentioned in the chris crisis with the crime me, actually,

this is a reality that the crimea is now a part of russia for the russian. i know what i don't want to talk about. i want to talk about the broader issues because you want the other half of the position so sorry, let me, let me, i'm sorry for, for my interruption. let me conclude my point of view my argument as you set. so please. so as we got cut on the, via us global economy and other dressing issues, russia actually very well want to cooper right. with europe in union, we like the state because for example, that kind of virus crisis, can i not? and then it is the global threats all human guy. the russia only supports a common actions towards this. right. okay, good luck. thank you very much feature. kylie there with the, the vaccine pledge was made ahead of the g 7 summit. can we expect other measures,

for example, the to, to tackle climate change and, and of measures to help boost the, the economy? because it's, it's easy to, to release the statements and wishes. but what kind of concrete action i have to come back to this point, but are you expect and concrete action to come from this summit and the european meetings that will help deliver progress on climate and the economic re bones. while i think there will be discussion of goals. busy but, but actually delivering on those is more of a national discussion than an international discussion. and you know, this is where your domestic politics does have a profound impact on international affairs. you know, the by to ministration hopes to use an infrastructure bill. now to begin the

process of weaning the american economy away from fossil fuels and towards more renewable energy sources. are it's unclear at this point. you know, whether congress is going to deliver on that bill in a meaningful form that helps. you know, the states will still it's climate goals. so, so yes, this, this is a major challenge for the united states and others is, is, you know, once you set the policy aspirations, can you deliver concrete results? that's not going to happen this week. but it's certainly needs to happen this year and carolina at the same point to you, given the internal divisions because they know the internal divisions in the us keeps copper. any attempts to pass me in these kinds of transformative legislation and policies. it's very similar situation in the you, do you think anything concrete will happen or is this a very very long and flu routes that leaders worldwide are all on?

no, i think less. i don't know. certainly on the agenda which we'll just discuss the sort of the variable cost, probably the most important the world and, but we have got $26.00 meetings. let's have all the members at united nations level working on climate change, i think. but the $27.00 dave on both want to make concrete steps to make sure that the meeting later this year at glasgow or target we can go to tangible results. and there are many things on the, on that number we have to be tackled. there's just expanding that take who was covered by the whole emissions reading steam, let him a reduction of emissions. but it's also using, as i said, a moment ago, mean a carbon prize in march intersections. europe is the only jurisdiction in the world which has an emission stating system. we just barking at the moment. and the emissions costs have increased greatly showing that the system works, but we need to expand this. and there's one very difficult thing related to that as

the oldest, do not have the carbon price. i mean, will we have a, what we call the carbon border adjustment mechanism and to tackle this so that could be really a big hindrance to end rational trade. if we don't have an agreement with this, if you don't try to type the system speckle time it change and you do it, then we have a big friction for international trade. so that can be vertical. and also, as i said, all the elements, china is also making its steps on the climate change. but this will have to be combined for example, but taking a sheet positions from back in china. ok probably from the g 7, teeny more lenient positions for you. march. okay, so we're in the final minutes of the debates and china has of course be the elephant in the room here we've been discussing around the old debate flooding. certainly cause do you think that people should be talking with china more to tackle these issues before any progress can be made?

yes, i think so you're, you're correct in the standing this. my point is that the, actually no one can be let the position of china and actually both new not states and the european union or j 7 should actually talk more to china. first of all, 1st of all, just to diminish any, any fears that china could do something in the opposite. i mean, that should be a threat. and secondly, just understand the position of china and try to negotiate the negotiate and to have an agree from china. these global issues like my colleagues just have mentioned, okay, i'm afraid we are out of time. i'd like to thank all of my gas speak a quarterly carolina and vladimir certainly call and thank you to for watching. you can see the program again anytime by visiting our website al jazeera dot com. i'm
