hello and a warm welcome to our viewers joining us in the united states and all around the world, i'm max foster in london. just ahead on "cnn newsroom," we're counting down to the highly anticipated meeting between presidents biden and xi jinping. plus, president biden is set to sign his historic infrastructure bill. will it give the economy enough of a boost with inflation on the rise. coronavirus cases are again surging here in europe.

now some countries are tightening restrictions but only for the unvaccinated. live from london, this is "cnn newsroom" with max foster. it is monday, november 15th and we're just hours away from the high stakes virtual summit between u.s. president joe biden and chinese president xi jinping. it will be the first meeting between the two men since mr. biden took office although they've spoken twice by phone. it will come as tensions have flared on issues such as taiwan and trade. mr. biden is expected to make clear u.s. priorities and trade and mr. xi has hinted at a slightly warming trend. they're willing to work with the u.s. steven jiang joins us from beijing with more on what we can

expect. there's a huge amount of rebuilding to do here. it does feel as if both sides are pretty optimistic. >> reporter: that's right, but also, you know, authority i shalls -- authorities have said this has been in a nose dive for quite some time, especially during the administration of former u.s. president donald trump. there are hope things could be picking up after mr. biden took office because mr. biden has kept most of mr. trump's china policies and measures and promising to form this united front against an increasingly powerful and some would say aggressive beijing with u.s. allies and partners. that has upset them and upset many in beijing. they think that to be posing more of a threat than mr. trump's going alone policy.

there are many issues and human rights is very close to the heart of mr. biden. he wants to bump the rise of authoritarianism around the world. so given how far apart the two sides have remained on all of those critically important issues, few expecting major breakthroughs on any of the disputes or disagreements. the point of the meeting is really to put a floor on this free fall and relationship to lower the temperature and keep communication levels open to avoid any strategic miss calculations that could harm bilateral ties and peace and prosperity. max? >> we're watching, steven. president biden hours away from signing a roughly 1 trillion

infrastructure bill in place. mr. biden will hit the road to sell it to the american people. cnn's joe johns has the latest from the white house. >> reporter: president joe biden returning to the white house after a weekend at camp david. he is looking ahead to a week in which the administration will try to build up some momentum after the last several weeks of intrigue up on capitol hill as democrats fought over the president's spending priorities. on monday, the president will hold a signing ceremony here at the white house to mark the passage of his infrastructure bill. then on tuesday and wednesday he flies out to new hampshire as well as michigan to try to sell the bill to the american public. the administration continues to try to grapple with inflation including the cost of gas prices. several administration officials

suggesting over the weekend that there might be a strategy forthcoming to deal with price gouging. listen. >> at moments like this there's a real concern of price gouging or market manipulation that could put consumers more well -- that could actually harm consumers so we've asked the federal trade commission to take a very close look at that right now in the current market conditions and we're also engaging internationally to make sure other oil-producing nations aren't taking advantage of the strength of the recovery and actually profiting at the american consumers' expense. >> reporter: the administration hopes the coming week will end with a vote on friday on the president's big social safety net bill. joe johns, cnn, the white house. while the majority of americans fought both president biden's spending plans, his overall approval rating has dropped to a new low, 41%. that's according to a new washington post/abc news poll.

america's outlook is especially bleak when it comes to the handling of the economy. 39% approval. the poll found 70% of americans say the u.s. economy is in bad shape. president biden's hard fought infrastructure plan is expected to fund a sprawling list of improvements. the trillion dollar spending package will be going to projects like roads, bridges, airports and even environmental cleanups. it comes as americans feel the pinch of rising inflation. rising food and energy prices are big drivers of inflation hitting americans in the wallet. prices for american consumers are rising at the fastest rate in three decades. vice president kamala harris returned saturday from a week-long trip to france where she shored up one of the united states oldest relationships. edward eisert details what he

calls frustration around the first female vice president. he interviewed three dozen people inside and outside the biden administration and he discussed what they told him with our pamela brown. >> this is a president who picked harris as being the future of the party when he picked her for the ticket last year and there is a real concern that that is not the way she's being positioned now. >> just to be clear, is there friction between harris and biden or is this like the -- you know, the staffers where you see this friction? >> i think it's really important that you see the dynamic between joe biden and kamala harris themselves is very good. they continue to have a warm relationship. that's true of their spouses, close relationship, but this is a frustration about how things are going that is -- some folks in the west wing looking over the vice president's office saying it's really dysfunctional, can't get it together. also people inside the vooits president's office, around

harris, people who have been advising her from the outside looking at her saying, why can't they get things more right to put her out in a better way? the question that she's facing and the people who want her to succeed are facing, her poll numbers, not cnn polls, are lower than joe biden's. part of the reason for that may be that she is not being put out there on her own to build up the good feelings, especially with the base. >> edward isaacs speaking earlier with pamela brown. now steve bannon is expected to turn himself in in the coming hours. he's facing two charges of contempt of congress after he defied a subpoena from the committee investigating the january 6th attack on the u.s. capitol. bannon may not be the last member of trump's inner circle to face charges. mark meadows snubbed the same committee on friday when he failed to show up for a deposition. cnn's zachary cohen has the latest from washington.

>> reporter: steven bannon is expected to turn himself in monday, sources tell cnn, after he was indicted on two counts of contempt of congress last week. a federal judge signed an arrest warrant for bannon but he's given the option to surrender voluntarily. if convicted, he could serve one year in prison for each am count of contempt. they're trying to figure out what happened around the attack on the u.s. capitol. meadows failed to show up for his own scheduled deposition last week and the committee is thinking about moving to hold him in contempt as well. meadows was working in the white house in the leadup to the 6th. the committee clearly has a lot of questions for meadows, including, for instance, whether he used a personal cell phone

during that time. there was also questions about a memo used against vice president pence. whether any of this leads to more cooperation from meadows leads to be seen. zachary cohen, cnn, washington. >> zachary just mentioned charges against meadows may be harder to pursue, but that's not stopping some republicans from pursuing it. meanwhile, members of the house committee are more direct. if meadows doesn't cooperate, they won't hesitate to act. >> you know, one of the reasons that i voted to hold steve bannon in contempt was he didn't cooperate at all. in fact, at the time one of the arguments was even mark meadows was having his lawyers communicate with the committee. it seemed like there was going to be some progress that was going to be made. >> but we want to be sure we have the strongest possible case to present to the justice department and for the justice

department to present to a grand jury and that means making sure we bend over backwards to reach any agreement we can with witnesses who are showing any willingness to engage. but when ultimately witnesses decide, as meadows has, that they're not even going to bother showing up, that they have that much contempt for the law, then it pretty much forces our hand. we'll move quickly. cnn will keep following the story. later today jurors will hear the closing arguments in the homicide trial of charles r rittenhouse. the shooting happened in kenosha, wisconsin, over the shooting of jacob blake. jurors will deliberate whether or not rittenhouse is guilty of five felony counts and the misdemeanor. the prosecution faces him as a teenager vigilante. rittenhouse claims he acted in

self-defense. now the 9-year-old boy who was injured in a crowd surge at astroworld festival in houston died on tuesday. ezra had been in a medically induced coma after he sustained life threatening injuries. the death toll now stands at 10. in a statement crump added, the blount family is grieving the incomprehensible loss of their precious young son. this should not have been the outcome of taking their son to a concert. it should have been a joyful situation. houston's mayor is grieving for their family. now there are growing concerns, fears of a confrontation with thousands of migrants stranded at the polish bella russian border. plus, counter terrorism officers are investigating a deadly car

blast in england. stay with us for details. ever rushed to a doctor's appointment and thought: [whispers] "couldn't i do this from home?" only to get inside, where time stands still. "how long do i have to wait here?" healthcare makes many of us feel anxious, confused, exposed, and overwhelmed—but it doesn't have to be that way. letsgetchecked offers virtual care with home health testing. take the test. get your results. and get the treatment you need. letsgetchecked. care can be this good.

the u.s. is accusing belarus of manufacturing the migrant crisis at the ukrainian border. nato is keeping a close eye on these developments. >> we have seen some initial moments of concentration of forces and that's the reason why we are monitoring it and of course already to address what may happen. >> meanwhile, the polish border guard says they are getting help from belorussian officials. the polish ministry of defense says its forces in the border area are on stand by. we have the latest from matthew chance from a migrant camp on the belorussian side.

fred, take us through what the polls are telling you in this continued buildup of military tension. >> definitely. i think that's one of the key things is that this military tension is building up. polish border forces and polish military are saying they do believe some of the migrants in those camps and tried to cross the border into poland, they've gotten help from the belorussian security forces and being instigated by the belorussian security forces. we've seen text messages saying belorussian security forces were trying to get them to attack the border fence and also army men with the goods to do that as well. so certainly some of those claims that poland has put out there seem to be bolstered by some of the information that we are get thissing as well. the polls are also saying belorussian security forces are

actively involved in trying to get some people to break through the border wall. it shows a belorussian military vehicle tried to tear down the fence and using strobe lights on people on the other side of the border. the poles say they are taking it seriously and are continuously bringing assets in. there are a lot of military bases that have strung up here. the poles remain firm and then you can see that the european union has scored what might be some smaller victories in all of this with several countries in the middle east now saying they will not allow people from iraq, syria, yemen and also from afghanistan to board flights. in fact, this morning we heard from the belorussian people

saying they are going to stop flying people out to fly to minsk as well. on the one hand trying to cut people off and they're saying the border behind me, that is going to remain shut, max. >> fred, thank you. >> reporter: matthew, you are amongst the people caught in this. what are the belorussians saying to you? matthew, can you hear me? >> reporter: are you talking to me? >> yes. >> reporter: excuse me. we're just about to come to you. everybody suddenly in this refugee camp right here on the border suddenly are out grabbing their things and moving off to a location, we don't know where yet.

>> reporter: with you going to? >> the gate. >> reporter: you're going there now? >> yes. >> reporter: all right. there you heard it, max. the refugees are picking up their things and heading towards the border gate where they say they're going to try i think as i understand it to get through. you see how close we are. they're camping out here in bleak conditions, lighting fires to keep warm. just meters away from the razor wire fences. you see the polish police there with wire shields, batons. standing guard to make sure there isn't any breach of that

fence. federal authorities have been encouraging them to go through and helping them. belorussian officials deny it. what they say is the poles are not doing enough to live up to their humanitarian responsibilities and let people through. the belorussians say when they get through they are pushed back across the border which is a violation of that international rule. the truth is is that these migrants are on track between the poles and the razor fence and the belorussian military guards on the other. they are desperate individuals from various countries, particularly iraq, curd is stand, they are sort of trapped in this geopolitical standoff between belorussian -- its ally

belarus and western supporters. it's a very difficult situation. i'm going to head up the hill, max, to see where these people are going to. we still don't know what they're plan to go do. i will tell you this, there's been rumors over the course of the past couple of days in this camp where we've been reporting from over the past 48 hours, there's been an opening of the border fence. there's been talk of a humanitarian corridor through poland to germany. the poles have moved to dispel that rumor. in fact, i've got a text message that we all received in our team. everybody with a cell phone hats been getting text messages from the polish side. this one saying poland won't let migrants past to germany. don't get fooled. don't try to take any action. another one saying this, the

polish border is sealed. belorussian authorities told you lies. go back to minsk. don't take any pills. the allegation that they have been giving them amphetamine pels to keep them going and keep them warm, max. there seems to be some activity. you can see over here a lot of the migrants are making their way out of this camp so we're going to follow them up and see where they're going. where are you going? >> poland. >> reporter: you're going to poland? >> yes. >> we're going to join matthew again later on. the camera's freezing a bit. there's all of these migrants heading towards what they call a

gate between belarus and poland. poland making it pretty clear they're not going to be allowed through. we'll follow that group of migrants throughout the day. matthew is there. we here in england have a police situation. they're arresting three men under the terrorism act after a car explosion injured three people. they're dooepg keeping an eye on it. it's trick why you through this. that's key is the domestic service had put together the terror level meaning that a substantial attack is likely. the police response, there's a lot of resemblance to terror attacks we have seen in the past.

obviously you have an explosion and people start thinking automatically. where it differs though is here we are almost 24 hours on from this actually taking place and we have so, so little information. we know that the call to police came in just before, like a minute before 11:00 in the morning yesterday. one witness told bbc that he heard an explosion, looked outside the window, saw this car on fire and saw a guy getting out in bad shape, obviously, and screaming. this was another person in the back of the car. we can only assume that that was the person who died who was still inside of that vehicle. the prime minister has called this an awful incident. the mayor of liverpool know either whether they are experiencing it. we know 11 a.m. in the u.k. to honor the war dead.

there was a parade at the cathedral. this hospital facility is massive. it takes up almost an entire city block. obviously as you mentioned in the hours that followed, police carried out the raids, heavily armed police one about a mile to the north. three men arrested in their 20z. there was another police activity about a mile to the north. more questions than answers. no confirmation as to who the gentleman in the taxi was. no confirmation of who the fatality was. we don't know where the final destination of this taxi was, whether it was supposed to be the hospital or some other place. >> we just know they're taking it seriously. we're going back to belarus as well, the border with poland

where matthew is with a group of migrants heading towards the border. we have some technical issues. tried to get ahold of him earlier on. can we get hold of him now? mat matthew, just describe what these people are doing. >> reporter: yeah, max, if you're on air, we were talking a few minutes ago. yes, i accept there are some technical issues. as we were talking, the whole camp seems to be packing up its bags and moving on up this hill towards the border checkpoint between belarus and pole rand. we're seeing a couple of thousand people here packing up their tents and their belonging. you can receive these incredible scenes. everybody now, hundreds of

people, there are 2,000 people here, everybody is moving away from where they've been sitting along that border fence over here towards the polish border. there had been this rumor circulating in this camp that poland is to open up the humanitarian corridor and allow these refugees, mainly from iraqi kurdistan to allow them to go where they want to go. the main majority want them to go to germ pa any. the poles have absolutely denied that. they're saying, that's not the case. don't be fooled. pole lappeand is not going to o borders. these people have been sitting here in cold weather in

desperate conditions for so long, they just don't want to believe that. it seems now they're taking initiative themselves and are moving en masse towards the polish belorussian border themselves. max? >> when they're accused of manufacturing this crisis, the belorussians, is there any confirmation of that? >> reporter: yeah, well, look, the evidence is that belarus lifted diesel res-- vees restrictions on people from iraq, and allowed them to come in and bringing people in. the authorities are turning a blind eye towards them.

pretty much complicit in making this happen. to this camp, they've been brought to this camp and sort of often urged towards the border fence and of course there's been video evidence suggesting that the belorussian authorities may have been helping, equipping them to try and reach the razor wire. of course, we mentioned the bet la russian authorities categorically deny that, but it seems this whole crisis is serving the purpose of putting pressure on the european union, the e.u., it has been harboring critics. second blinken, u.s. secretary of state say this provides an extraction for what he says is a buildup of rush shan frontier and border of ukraine.

these people are genuine migrants and refugees. they are coming from iraq and kurdistan. they are desperate to get into the european union and making their way to countries like germany. >> matthew. thank you. matthew monitoring those events. all of those people heading towards the border. we'll wait to see what happens. poland says they're not going to let them in. tense situations building up. we'll keep up with it for you. we'll be back in just a minute.

i'm max foster. if you are just joining us, let me bring you up to date with our top stories this hour. we are hours away with the highly anticipated meeting between presidents biden and xi jinping. and u.s. president biden will sign his massive infrastructure bill in the coming hours. 's hoping the bill will ease rising inflation costs. . more ahead on both of these stories in "early start" 30 minutes from now. europe is at the epicenter of the pandemic again. the surging cases have officials worried about the pandemic again. austria is beginning a lockdown on all of the unvaccinated people.

>> reporter: it's variable all across europe. in italy you have restrictions. in austria, this lockdown was very, very strict keeping anyone over the age of 12 at home who hasn't been vaccinated. places like berlin has a green pass like we have in italy. you have to be vaccinated to go to a restaurant, theater, movies, all of the things like that. the summer of complacency. people forgot there was a pandemic. here we are going into winter just like last year, scared about what's around the corner .

activists and world leaders are setting their sights on cop27 in egypt and offering mixed assessments whether anything was achieved in glasgow. boris johnson is touting the agreement. he said the deal reaffirms the importance of trying to hold global warming to 1 point be point 5 degrees celsius and that marked the death fell in for coal. others argue it was watered down and failed to meet the urgency of the climate crisis. nina dos santos has more.

people had an opportunity to read this over the weekend. how would you bring it together, nina? >> reporter: some people are saying that it is a mixture of grief and relief depending which side you stand on and whether you're a major producer of fossil fuels or user of fossil fuels. when it comes to boris johnson, he held a press conference yesterday to wrap things up. india and china watered down the package. coal is the dirtiest fuel out there. boris johnson said that this was essentially a mixture of delight

and disappointment that you couldn't have it all but it does keep the climate change agenda really alive at this point. have a listen. >> of course my delight at this progress is tinged with disappointment. for those whom this is a matter of life and death, who can only stand by as their islands are submerged, their farmlands ruined. they demanded a high level. while many were willing to go there, that wasn't true of everybody. sadly, that's the nature of diplomacy. >> reporter: so optimists are lauding the fact that this is the first time that fossil fuel consumption has really been cemented in one of these agreements with targets to phase that down in terms of coal rather than the original

language that was phased out. that brought the minister in charge of these negotiations almost to the point of tears in his final press conference wrapping things up but there were important bilateral agreements as well struck on the sidelines. notably the united states and china cooperating on producing meth then and other key greenhouse gas and decarbonization. pledging deforestation and cutting methane emissions. all eyes, of course, will be on whether or not people reaffirm these commitments or indeed beef them up in the next summit set to take place next tuesday in egypt. max? >> thank you. india pushed to water down the language on coal but the capitol city is now dealing with severe air pollution. scores of government offices are

closed for a week as thick smog blankets the city and air pollution is expected to remain poor. there's been another violent incident involving commercial travel. a female passenger was arrested and charged with aggravated assault after an altercation with a southwest employee. the woman hit a female operations agent on the head with a closed fist during the boarding process on a flight to new york. southwest says its employee was hospitalized but has since been released. there have been more than 5100 reports of unruly passengers this year. most cases involve passengers refusing to wear masks. now the race for vice president is shaping up to be a family feud in the philippines. the latest on whether the outgoing president really wants to challenge his daughter in next year's election. the stinging. my skin was no longer mine.

philippine president rodrigo duterte is keeping his plans

clearer. he filed his candidacy. earlier they had him running against his daughter. she filed for the vice presidency despite polls showing her as the number one presidential prospect. ivan watson is in hong kong and he will untangle this for us. ivan. >> reporter: hi there, max. the deadline was 49 ments ago, 51 minutes ago for filing your candidacy to run for office in the 2022 elections. there was a last-minute flurry of announcements including from the duterte family. on saturday sarah duterte, daughter of rodrigo duterte. that same day rodrigo duterte said he would file for

nominating himself as vice president which sets up a very awkward potential race within the family for the same position and then in the last minute before the deadline closed a surrogate for the outgoing president put in a bid for a seat in the senate for rod league gee duterte who is being investigated for his controversial war on drugs which has killed more than 6,000 people. max? >> okay. ivan, thank you. fascinating story. we're going to watch that unfold. also on the belorussian side of the border at a migrant camp with matthew chance because he's been walking with a group of migrants who are walking towards the border because they think they're going to get through. >> reporter: hey, max. still having a bit of trouble hearing you. let me tell you where we're at. it seems as if the entire camp

that we have been reporting from for the past couple of days that has sprung up in the last couple of weeks has now entered. let me spin you around and you can see this. hundreds of them, possibly the entire population of 2,000 refugees gathered in that camp have picked up their belongsings and have slung them over their backs and have made it here to the border crossing between belarus and poland. you can see the razor wire fences has been put there by the poles. and the polish border police have deployed in force as you can see there determined it seems not to let these refugees pass. there have been rumors circulating in this refugee camp for the past 24, 48 hours that poland would allow these refugees to pass. that a humanitarian corridor

would be open through to germany but the polish have moved to dispel that rumor. they sent text messages including to people on our team on this border, don't be fooled. we're going to protect our borders. don't believe what the belorussian authorities are telling you. we're not going to let you pass. that's a summary of what they're saying in the text message. you can see that warning, don't even try it, is being played out here on the ground reinforced and underlined by the fact that they've deployed all of these white helmets, border police as well. they are determined to leave this camp where companies are very poor. they're not getting enough food and water from the belorussian

authorities. it's getting cold. it's already below freezing. any of you speaking english? where are you going? where do you want to go? >> germany. >> reporter: everybody wants to go to germany. there you have it. do you think the poles will let you through? they're saying we want to go to germany but the poles have closed the border. the poles aren't showing any sign of capitulating but at the same time with these thousands of refugees now facing them, just meters away from their razor wire, they're desperate. they're trapped. they want to get out of this situation, max. >> it's difficult to know, you know, what advice they can follow, right? because the belorussians are implying that's the place to be.

the poles aren't letting them through. how can this be resolved? >> reporter: max, i can't hear you very well for some reason my signal is not very strong. could you try and repeat that? >> is there any way that you can see the situation being resolved just from what you're seeing there on the ground? it looks pretty intractable. >> reporter: i didn't quite get it. you're asking if whether there was any sense of movement on the ground, i'm not seeing that at the moment apart from this unexpected and sudden departure of all of those hundreds if not thousands of migrants from that camp here to this border and this border fence. i've got somebody over here who i know speaks very good english. he's the kind of sort of elder, leader, if you like, of the

refugees. theno. oh, no, he's gone. there's a sort of leader of the refugees over here if you like. he speaks very good english. he is now it looks like over there in the corner perhaps trying to hold some kind of talks with the belorussian authorities. obviously i don't know what they're discussing, but clearly this is a very sort of dynamic situation. it was an unexpected situation. we'll see how it develops over the next couple of hours. >> we will, matthew there on the border of poland on the belorussian side. matthew is describing there how the entire camp from what he could see heading to that bored jerp. thank you for joining us. i'm max foster from london.
