dream more, dream faster, and above all... now, i'll dream gig. now more businesses, in more places, can afford to dream gig. comcast, building america's largest gig-speed network. when it all straightens out, we'll all be in love again. the u.s. president confronts america's closest allies. but the smiles and handshakes of the g-7 summit are cut short. and from one summit to another. mr. trump will head to singapore ahead of his historic meeting with the leader of north korea, kim jong-un. plus here on cnn and around the world we remember the life of the renowned chef and colleague anthony bourdain who brought the world together through food, travel and through story telling. live from cnn headquarters in
2:01 am
atlanta, we welcome our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm george howell. "cnn newsroom" starts right now. and we start this hour at 5:00 a.m. here on the u.s. east coast with the g-7 summit in canada. it kicked off on friday despite growing animosity towards the u.s. president over the issue of thread. whether the seven western allies can produce a joint statement as they normally do, that is still an open question. mr. trump arrived late at the two day meeting and he'll be leaving early. on thursday he'd been feuding on twitter with the canadian president and french prime minister. >> the united states was under a great deficit for many years with the european union, and
2:02 am
we're working it out. and emmanuel has been very helpful in that regard. i something's going to happen, and i think it's going to be positive. >> there's a way to progress all together. i saw willingness on all sides to find agreements and have a win win approach for our people, our workers. >> shortly before he arrived at the summit mr. trump caused another uproar when he shortly mentioned that russia should be readmitted to the summit making no mention of why russia was kicked out in the first place. >> reporter: donald trump arriving to quebec for the g-7 summit, a summit sources indicated he was hesitant to attend. he was fighting public battles with some of the united states
2:03 am
'closest allies over trade, the iran nuclear deal, climate change and now russia after mr. trump suggested vladimir putin should have a seat at the table. >> russia should be at this meeting. why are we having a meeting without russia being in the meeting? and i would recommend, and it's up to them but russia should be in the meeting. it should be a part of it. you know, whether you like it or not, and it may not be politically correct, but we have a world to run. and in the g-7, which used to be the g-8 they threw russia out. they should let russia come back in, because we should have russia at the negotiating table. >> reporter: other g -7 leaders disagreed including british prime minister theresa may. before discussions could begin on any of this, we would have to ensure russia is amending its ways and taking a different route. some within the president's own
2:04 am
party also dismissed the idea. nebraska senator ben sass writing, quote, this is weak. putin is not our friend and he is not the president's buddy. he's a thug using soviet style aggression to wage a shadow war against america. and canadian prime minister justin trudeau trump touted his ability to strike a deal. >> it's what i do, it won't even be hard, and in the end we'll all get along. but they understand and they're trying to act like, well, we fought with you in the war. they don't mention the fact that they have trade barriers against our farmers. they don't mention the fact that they're charging almost 300% tariffs. when it all straightens out we'll all be in love again. >> reporter: macron initially suggested mr. trump may force the other six g-7 countries to force an agreement without the
2:05 am
united states. though he later posted a video of a private chat with trump writing, quote, dialogue again and again. exchange trying to defend constantly the interests of the french and also of all those who believe the world is built only together. with the u.s. president before the opening of the g-7. boris sanchez, cnn, quebec, canada. >> thank you. let's now bring in -- live for us in our london bureau. first we're hearing from senator john mccain on this russia thing. here's what he had to say. quote, vladimir putin chose to make russia unworthy of membership in the g-8 by invading ukraine and annexing crimea. russia is assaulting democratic institutions all over the world. that's from senator mccain. keeping in mind so this came out of the blue really from the u.s. president add the g-7.
2:06 am
when you consider the trump world's curious connections with that country. >> well, it's difficult to know what the motivation of donald trump being in suggesting that russia to become part of the g-8. but on the other hand there are inconsistencies with the ones who are opposing what donald trump had said. russia's not the first country if you like to violate somebody else's borders or engage in regime change abroad. several other g-7 countries have done that themselves. and i think in the broader picture russia is a great power, and it is better as with any so-called official enemies, for example north korea, to extend a better hand at dialogue as well. but i suspect trump is playing at politics here to show he can be disruptive force within the group of g-7 as well. >> president trump did arrive late to the summit missing his
2:07 am
meeting with the french president, though the two did speak later. and then there was this friendly esh change with the canadian prime minister justin trudeau about trade. let's listen. >> justin has agreed to cut all tariffs and all trade barriers between canada and the united states. >> nafta is in good shape. >> but we are actually working on it. but our relationship is very good. >> all right, joking aside there, this face-to-face we saw between these two leaders very different than the twitter barbs we've seen play out before the summit. is the relationship truly in good shape, or as they say, can common ground be found here? >> i think there's two things. one is there are clear very, very serious frictions between the europeans and the united states. i think the united states sees a changing world, and there are
2:08 am
new powers and even the old allies, if you like, are having a much more -- trying to use the opportunities of a changing world, in the middle east, in asia, with regard to china, africa and elsewhere, and that is actually challenging, if you like, the global market in which the united states is very powerful. so i think what donald trump is trying to do at that global level is trying to reassert american power particularly economically. and those tariffs that he's talking about in effect are part of what he's trying to do. he's sort of trying to lay down the law economically. and that also plays well to his domestic base. but if you like in the bigger picture the level of interdependence between the united states and europe also suggests why they're so friendly in the immediate run up to the g-7 meetings. that is to say although they have frictions they also have a great deal of interdependence. it's not just the united states
2:09 am
which reasserting its authority. i think germany and france are doing the same. britain, as you know, is trying to brexit the european union and reassert itself as global britain. chinese has a global dream to reassert its power. o i think there's a loosening of a world order. and i think what the u.s. is trying to do is make sure it remains predominant within that emerging world order, trying to discipline some of the other powers. >> inderjeet, we'll of course see how things come together as the president leaves one summit for another. thank you for your time. >> thank you. now to a story that is truly difficult to cover. it is the death of our colleague here at cnn, anthony bourdain. tributes have been pouring in from around the world. this after the news friday that bourdain took his own life. in new york fans have been leaving flowers and notes outside the french restaurant
2:10 am
where bourdain once worked as a chef. many, many other people from all walks of life have been posting tributes on social media reflecting on his remarkable life as a chef, as a modern day explorer and as a host of cnn's "parts unknown." bourdain's girlfriend tweeted this, anthone bourdain gave all himself in everything he did. his fearless spirit touched and inspired so many and his generosity knew no bounds. he was my love, my rock, my protector. i am youbeyond devastated. my thoughts are with his family. i would ask you respect their privacy and mine. >> i think what's given me just enough of a wrinkle of hope and positivity on the day of seeing the incredible impact that he's
2:11 am
had on our planet, although then 30 seconds later i realize it's probably why i miss him later and i feel we got short changed. at first i thought it was the sickest joke that had ever been played until i started to see, you know, that there were 40 messages on my phone memos. and i realized, oh, my god, this isn't a joke. and i read the -- i opened the first one, i forget who it was from. and i swung my knees over the edge of my bed, and i always do a little morning spiritual check in, and i just started crying. it was -- it was so, so sad. for anyone who's played team sports or worked in a kitchen or on a tv crew or anything you had that camaraderie that's necessary to be successful they can certainly relate to that. but tony was one of the most important cultural interpreters
2:12 am
of our time. the idea that any human being, let alone someone who's your friend you cared about that's been there for you, tony was always there for me when i wanted to talk about struggles in my own life, and was always more interested in other people or news of the day than talking about himself. you know, the idea that we go to bed at night, night after night after night in so much pain until finally that's the only solution that comes to mind, to think of a friend or a loved one in that situation is just -- it's agonizing me right now. and my heart is breaking for, you know, the people who loved him, you know, his girlfriend, his wives, his daughter who, you know, i've had relationships with many of those people. and it's a very sad day for all of us. in the professional culinary world, in the world of television and storytelling
2:13 am
where i come from, and for his fans all over the world, tony understood the transformative power of travel as well as anyone. he almost, you know, created the idea himself. you know, as americans especially we devour other cultures with our mouths first. >> well said. >> we take in and understand other cultures through food, which is why tony starts with foot, which is why i start with food. but what's much more important than food, and tony knew this better than anyone, are people and their stories. >> absolutely. >> and things that you can learn on the road that transform you. and then you hope bit by bit to import a little bit back into your day to day life once you get back home. the things you learn on the road. we're better versions of ourselves on the road. and i think tony loved the version of himself that was on the road. >> anthony bourdain was surely a person of ens operation to me. it was a style, his energy, his
2:14 am
authenticity that made him such an incredible storyteller and a remarkable man. >> to me one of life's great joys is cheese. >> reporter: for anthony bourdain understanding people, understanding cultures around the world and creating a hit tv show couldn't be more straightforward. >> we asked simple questions. what makes you happy, what do you eat, what do you like to cook? and everywhere in the world we go and ask these simple questions we tend to get some really astonishing answers. >> reporter: bourdain was found dead friday morning by a friend in a hotel in france. the cause of his death was suicide. bourdain started working in kitchens at a young age and would-week become a celebrity chef and author as he made his way into television. calling him the original rock star of the culinary world, the elvis of bad boy chefs.
2:15 am
bourdain didn't shy away from talking about past demons, heavy drug use that included an addiction to heroin as well as cocaine use. so bad, he said, he should have died in his 20s. but instead lived what he called a charmed life. >> massachusetts is quite small town america. >> reporter: he addressed his past head on while highlighting the opioid epidemic in massachusetts in his show. >> i thought i'd start the show by starting in province town in cape cod, which is where at the age of 17 i started washing dishes and started in the restaurant business as a summer job and began my sort of trajectory in both the restaurant business and into drugs. someone who wakes up in the morning and their first order of business is get heroin, i know what that's like. >> reporter: bourdain came to cnn in 2013 bringing his show to a global audience. throughout his tv career he won
2:16 am
award after award. >> first order of business, dinner. >> reporter: it was the food that lured people in, but viewers knew it was about so much more. quickly finding themselves immersed in an experience that focused on people, exotic places and fates from around the world. he insisted he wasn't a journalist but over the years forged a unique style of storytelling that was unmatched. >> the man was one hell of a journalist. let's bring in our jim bitterman following the story across from the hotel where bourdain was found dead. what more can you tell us about what people are saying? >> reporter: george, in fact here his reputation is not as great as it was in the united states in the french speaking world. even though his parents were french, he spent his last night in this hotel where chef ripert,
2:17 am
one of the cochefs on the show he was producing found his body yesterday morning. the medical examiner came through here. and as far as the judicial investigation is concerned it's just about over. police are still waiting for the results of one blood test but in fact the medical examiner has already classified this a suicide. and as far as they're concerned the case is pretty much closed. no one here at this hotel, no one including the chef wanted to say anything about this, except he did issue a statement a short while ago saying out of respect for the family and friends my team and i want to preserve his memory in silence. >> live for us, thank you so much for the report. tributes from around the world have been pouring in for anthony bourdain. and here are just a few of them. his long time production company tweeted this. we want to express our deepest
2:18 am
and most sincere sympathy to tony's family. we will remember him for his immense talent and more importantly for his friendship. we've known and worked with tony for decades. this loss we feel today is deep and extraordinarily profound. we miss him already. the former u.s. president barack obama posted this. you'll remember this from parts unknown, the meeting the two had there on that show. low plastic stool, cheap but delicious noodles, cold hanoi beer. this is how i'll remember tony. he taught us about food, but more importantly bringing us together and making us a little less afraid of the unknown. and scott kelly said this, just saw the news anthony bourdain has died. i watched his show when i was in space. it made me feel more connected to the people, its cultures and made my time there more
2:19 am
palatable. since his passing we've been asking you for your stories of how anthony bourdain touched your life. thousands of people have offered heartfelt stories. you can read them and see them on cnn.com. we'll continue to update the site through the weekend so you can continue to see these responses. and if anyone you know needs help, this is important. if it's a friend, a family member, a colleague, if it's you please reach out to this website, the international association for suicide prevention. there you can help get support. you can find people who will guide you to get help. it doesn't matter where you are anywhere around the world, any time of the day you can go to isp.info and click on help. we also have information on how you can make a difference on preventing suicide. that is on cnn.com/impact.

president trump's former campaign chair is hitting back after being slapped with more charges in the russia probe. in a court filing paul manafort and his attorneys say they're -- this this. >> paul manafort and his business associate are facing new criminal charges after allegedly tampering with witnesses. according to court filings the special counsel's team is charging them them with obstruction of justice and conspiracy to obstruct justice, meaning they allegedly worked together to try to get witnesses
2:24 am
to commit perjury. colimnic lives in moskow and assisted manafort. he's the 20th person to face charges in the mueller investigation. special counsel robert mueller's team first raised the allegations of witness tampering in a court filing earlier this week. but friday's move to bring charges ramps up the pressure on the former campaign chairman to cooperate under mueller's probe. under house arrest for several months manafort recently got a glimmer of hope to allowing him to be released on bail. but in a sudden shift prosecutors unveiled the alleged witness tampering and requested he be sent back to jail to await trial. >> there's a bit of dangling of a carrot to say we finally agree on bail and then we yank it back so that adds to the pressure. >> reporter: his long time business partner rick gates struck a plea deal and agreed to
2:25 am
cooperate with mueller's team. after that they say they began reaching out to witnesses. the obstruction of justice charges come on top of other charges. he's currently awaiting two trials and has maintained his innocence. but if he's found guilty the 69-year-old could be sent to prison for the rest of his life. today president trump played coy if he'd be willing to issue a presidential pardon if someone like manafort is convicted. >> it's certainly too early to think about that. they haven't been convicted of anything. it's far too early to be thinking about it. >> the historic summit between north korea and the united states is just a few days away. we take a look at what's at stake and how singapore is preparing for that very important meeting.

2:29 am
now more businesses, in more places, can afford to dream gig. comcast, building america's largest gig-speed network. welcome back to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. you're watching "cnn newsroom." thanks for being with us. i'm george howell with the headlines we're following for you. this hour tributes are pouring in from around the world for anthony bourdain. bourdain was the host of cnn's "parts unknown." he was found dead in a hotel room in france after taking his own life friday. during his life bourdain helped to bridge cultural divides through food and he always urged viewers to eat and drink with people without fear or prejudice. anthony bourdain dead at the age of 61 years old. u.s. president donald trump
2:30 am
is expected to leave the g-7 summit in canada in the coming hours. he will then fly to singapore for his upcoming meeting with the leader of north korea, kim jong-un. beneath the smiles g-7 leaders are upset with mr. trump with the punishing new trade tariffs. chinese government hackers have reportedly stolen a trove of sensitive data. the breaches happened in january and february. the hackers stole data linked to submarines including plans to develop a supersonic anti-ship missile. the streets of singapore are busy as the united states and north korea prepare to come together for this very important meeting. and crews are tightening security outside the st. regius and shangri-la hotels. this is reportedly where kim jong-un and the president are supposed to stay. if talks are difficult the two
2:31 am
could return to exchanging threats. our paula hancocks has a front row seat to history live in singapore, again, which is the site of this summit. paula, how are things coming together in advance of this meeting and what's expected to come out of it? >> reporter: george, clearly this is one of the biggest security operations that singapore would ever have had to carry out. you have two leaders of nuclear power meetings here. and clearly there is a lot of stake. we know around about 3,000 journalists have been accredited for this. we haven't gotten an exact figure of how many security and police personnel will be involved but you can imagine it will be immense. and that capella hotel on sentosa island just about 3 kilometers away from where i am right now will be completely closed off. of course you can have all the preparations in the world, all
2:32 am
the pomp and ceremony you like, what really matters at this point is what these two leaders are going to be talking about. what we heard from the u.s. president donald trump over recent days is it will be more than a photo-op, it is a process. but he's also said at the same time that he thinks it's more of a getting to know you meeting. so it's unclear at this point what exactly we can expect from any kind of a statement at the end of the day on tuesday. we heard from the u.s. secretary of state mike pompeo saying it would be nice if there is some kind of written statement. but that of course depends on how these two men get on. >> antidotally i'm curious to get your perspective about this. we're talking about two of the world's most unpredictable leaders. what is the sense, the mood there ahead of this summit? >> reporter: well, for people in singapore themselves i mean some are taking advantage. of course, as you can imagine you've got every kind of summit
2:33 am
themed food and drink you can imagine in this area. the trump and kimchi burgers, the bromance cocktails, inpersonators here and on the other side you have some people in singapore who think it's an irritation because they know there's going to be a shutdown of some of the central areas. we understand there'll be an enhanced security special event. as you can imagine the immense security that follows these two men. and we heard from officials that this is one of the main concerns when they were trying to sorts out the logistics of this summit not just from the u.s. side but also from the north korean side, to make sure that their leaders are completely secure. we also heard it from the south korean side, hearing directly from kim jong-un he wanted to guarantee his security. >> the trump-kim cocktail, very
2:34 am
curious how that's made. let's dig deeper on this now. this upcoming summit. live in singapore, graham a research fellow at the school of international studies. i want to set the scene and get your thoughts. on one side the dictator of north korea kim jong-un, on the other the unpredictable president of the united states, donald trump. in the background nuclear weapons, and in the middle of it this unlikely middleman former probasketball player dent rodman. that's where we are. your thoughts. >> reporter: this this is one of the most unlikely mixtures we've seen. just an interesting convergence of personalities, you know, former basketball player, good buddy of kim jong-un. and then we have as you say
2:35 am
correctly, two extremely unpredictable and volatile heads of state coming together to meet in what's an equally unpredictable meeting. the outcomes are not clear, the agenda itself is not clear. that's still a work in progress, if you believe it or not. no one has a clue of what the exact agenda is going to be. so it's still up for grabs in a sense, and it all depends how these two individuals and other people who may accompany them are going to talk it out. >> i'm curious to know your thoughts about the approach this president will take here. what we know of him is that he uses a trance actionsactional a approach to the g-7. how will that play out here? because president trump says it's a, you know, get to know you meeting, optics are certainly important. but the big question many people want to know, what are the details and how does the president's style approach play
2:36 am
into this? >> that's a good question, george. i think a binary approach for this issue w is highly complicated, lots of moving parts is not going to work very well. so if president donald trump insists with a binary approach, black or white, i think the summit may unfortunately be setup for failure. because clearly there will have to be a lot of compromise on both sides in reaching some kind of common ground. mr. kim jong-un, one could guess also approaches from a very transactional hard bargaining perspective. so i think a good business metaphor, the coming together of two ceos i think would be a good metaphor of what's going to try to happen next week. nevertheless, i think all sides will have to manage the expectations and to be patient. small wins i think would be the way to go forward and have tons
2:37 am
of patience and endurance in mapping out the next few steps and charting out the next few meetings. i think that's going to be essential. so here in singapore at least from the way we are observing it quite pragmatic about the outcomes, just getting the handshake going and getting the rapport, camaraderie going, which is clearly not there to begin with because they haven't met would be essential in injecting that necessary capital for the second or third or fourth meetings which presumably we have to expect for these things to be already resolved. >> from the u.s. perspective it's all about the denuclearization of the korean peninsula. that's what has to be achieved and whether it takes two, three, four meetings remains to be clear. from the north korean perspective that country has always wanted recognition as a world power a nuclear power alongside the united states. does north korea win simply by
2:38 am
being there? who basically has the advantage here? is it the united states or north korea even going into the meeting? >> big question once again. i mean to answer your first question about, you know, north korea's objective, essentially, yeah, absolutely. they have a win already. just having this meeting, shaking hands it's that simple for mr. kim. that's his baselining goal. and there are tons of benefits for this man. he's going to bring back a lot more shaking hands with the leader of the world's super power. he's been gunning for legitimacy, recognition. he's getting all that and we're giving it to him. for the last few months he's meeting all the heads of state from major powers, important countries, the six parties so to speak and he's getting it. everyone's lining up.
2:39 am
he's done very little in a sense, i would argue, to get to this point. he's said a lot of things, done very little in action, and he's meeting all these objectives. unfortunately, i think we are playing into this game plan that he has. but i would also argue it may also be an imperic victory for mr. kim, because in order for him to carry on with this game plan of his he's got to deliver something tangible to the united states and other parties in this. he's got to denuclearize, he's got to give up some portion of his arsenal, elements of his nuclear structure. if he doesn't deliver or indicates he's going to deliver something and doesn't i think he's going to get cut off pretty soon. still ahead on newsroom, with friends like this who needs
2:40 am
the g-7, that's the question. the latest summit between leaders of china, russia and other major countries. they're asking that ahead. plus the queen of england, she's 92 years old and her birthday calls for a celebration, a big one in fact. we'll take you there. straight ahead. erine® cleans virtually 100%. helping to prevent gum disease and bad breath. never settle for 25%. always go for 100. bring out the bold™ and you look amazingly you lcomfortable. when your v-neck looks more like a u-neck... that's when you know, it's half-washed. add downy to keep your collars from stretching. downy and it's done.
2:41 am
i couldn't catch my breath. it was the last song of the night. it felt like my heart was skipping beats. they said i had afib. what's afib? i knew that meant i was at a greater risk of stroke. i needed answers. my doctor and i chose xarelto® to help keep me protected from a stroke. once-daily xarelto®, a latest-generation blood thinner significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. warfarin interferes with at least 6 of your body's natural blood-clotting factors. xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor. for afib patients well managed on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. don't stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of stroke. while taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. it may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. get help right away for unexpected bleeding or unusual bruising.
2:42 am
do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. before starting, tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures and any kidney or liver problems. learn all you can to help protect yourself from a stroke. talk to your doctor about xarelto®. to help protect yourself from a stroke. i'm a small business, but i have... big dreams... and big plans. so how do i make the efforts of 8 employees...
2:43 am
feel like 50? how can i share new plans virtually? how can i download an e-file? virtual tours? zip-file? really big files? in seconds, not minutes... just like that. like everything... the answer is simple. i'll do what i've always done... dream more, dream faster, and above all... now, i'll dream gig. now more businesses, in more places, can afford to dream gig. comcast, building america's largest gig-speed network. the leaders of russia and china, they are not at the g-7, but they're keeping it up with each other, keeping each other company. the presidents vladimir putin and xi jingping enjoyed a youth hockey game on friday as part of mr. putin's state visit to china. they're also attending a summit of the shanghai cooperation organization. the prime ministers of iran and
2:44 am
india and pakistan will also be at that summit. matt, is this being seen as sort of an alternative to the g-7? >> yeah, you could certainly look at it that way, george. i don't think most people would argue it has the same kind of global impact as the g-7 potentially could, but you do have a long list of very powerful leaders. pakistan, iran, russia, china. so clearly there is is a lot going on here. this is the shanghai cooperation organization. it was actually started with only five members back in 2001. and it was deposited as a kind of alternative kind of summit. as china really has gotten more powerful on the global stage, the importance of this summit has become more acescent as well. and that's why you see the leaders of these other countries also taking a role here. and, look, this is cement like many others.
