5:47 am
left me and i will bring us closer to north korea. that is one of the goals that the president has had. some of the credit has to be given to him. some of the dynamic might come from the fact that donald trump is meeting kim jong—un come from the fact that donald trump is meeting kimjong—un noon in a couple of times. the chinese behind—the—scenes will have had an impact. given that china is north korea's closest ally. also between north korea and china and china and south korea. how important the economy and business has to do with this deal. they are high, as you like, and north korea struggling hugely. does money have a lot to do with it as well. there is also the
5:48 am
question of what kim jong—un thinks he can get out of it. the view of the world, how they are being seen. north korea has, in the past, not get much about its population in terms of. given the gap from the north and south korea is huge. this is quite interesting. when a manual micron was in washington. based on the encounter they had last year.
5:49 am
trump refused this shake hands. with angela merkel. he turned it down, also because angela merkel is said to be relatively neutral. a number of issues they have a plate. russia sanctions that the us has imposed. donald trump's and there is quite a bit between the two. what do the german people think about angela merkel and donald trump? the expectation is that angela merkel will, in the end, the torch for free trade. germany has benefited a lot
5:50 am
from international trade. many germans to sit with quite a bit of concern. within a few couple of months. an area for concern given an it could least put into question how the german economy goes forward. consumers buying german products, cars, washing machines. there is a lot of trade. interestingly, this article says he is going to meet the queen onjuly article says he is going to meet the queen on july the 13th. however it is unlikely he is going to come to london. he would largely avoid london, it says, due to fears of
5:51 am
mass protests. that comes after protests that were held in london when he became president. it said to be working visit. ahead of britain's exit. britain is a key ally. the relationship is said to be not too good. for the uk, relationship is said to be not too good. forthe uk, it's relationship is said to be not too good. for the uk, it's important to get better relations. we have different views. boris johnson says the news is fantastic but sadiq khan says if it comes to london, he will experience an open and diverse city that has always chosen unity over division and liberal values —— values of freedom of speech are held dear. it is a veiled criticism. there will be some sort of demonstration. he also only has
5:52 am
limited time because he is coming to brussels for the nato summit and is said to be avoiding long—distance international travel which is why he's coming on friday the ofjuly. it is not a bad sign that this visit. let's talk deutsche bank. they have told us their profits have dipped 79%. this is in the gulf news. what is going wrong? they have been cutting bank on the number of staff and trying to turn the ship. many people are reporting record profits. that is a huge difference.
5:53 am
they are not making as much money with savings and deposits as us banks would be. they have rising interest rates in the us. it also seems that some of the offering that deutsche bank has is just not fit exactly for what the market needs. they want to scale back their investments, scaleback bonds and focus on german corporate and corporate banking which used to be one of their historic strengths before they embarked on this expansion mission. let's move on and talk about our final story in the sun. i'm sure it is close to your heart as a german. wembley. the scene of so many great victories. apparently, there is a lot of fury. selling wembley stadium to the owner shahid khan. i'm sure you care. to be honest, i'm not really a football
5:54 am
fan but i have been to wembley stadium. england against lithuania. that was an english victory, yes. interesting thing is whether that is going to be a clash surely thou not going to be a clash surely thou not going to be a clash surely thou not going to use nfl matches. surely thatis going to use nfl matches. surely that is fear mongering. it seems that is fear mongering. it seems that people are really afraid of this, seeing as there are so many comments on this story. that is all we have time forward the paper of you. plenty more news to come from that all—importa nt meeting. you. plenty more news to come from that all—important meeting. do stay with us here on bbc news. breakfast news coming up. it's been getting cooler day by day through this week and by the weekend, temperatures will be below the seasonal average,
