mine. world leaders convene in argentina for the g. twenty summit u.s. president donald trump is due to hold talks with the leaders of china and germany over american trade for so shaken the world economy it's likely to be a challenging summer for the world's most powerful nations also on the program ukraine's army combat readiness following russia sees a three ukrainian ships and ukraine is also bound russian men of military age from entering the country. i'm unprecedented humanitarian crisis the person you want is
5:01 pm
met the influx of migrants trying to reach the united states stretches the city's resources to breaking point. i'm focused on welcome to the program world leaders of open the g. twenty summit in point to satirise two days of talks with a host of issues to sort out among some of the ongoing trade dispute between the united states and china other topics include becoming saudi journalist jamal khashoggi in turkey on heightened tensions between russia and ukraine now protection mediator invalid conflicts a german chancellor i'm going to mecca has still not arrived because of an aircraft not function.
5:02 pm
so the survey says from the chief political correspondent melinda crane welcome melinda what can we expect from this week and we can expect some very difficult negotiations until now they have not been able to agree on a final communique apparently the sticking points are trade no big surprise there and also climate change and that just a couple of weeks before or actually couple of days before the new climate change conference of the u.n. opens in poland both of those of course areas where there are very significant risks that can only be handled by international coordination and yet we do have deadlock and we've got a lot of pull raking news turbulence here at the summit including the arrival of the crown prince of saudi arabia who of course has been accused by
5:03 pm
turkey of having murdered or ordered the murder of a journalist in the consequence of it in turkey so that very much be occupying people at the summit and then also the russian ukraine tension so there's a lot on the table and as usual a tug of war between donald trump with his unilateral approaches and for example european leaders who want to try to maintain the international trading order and also want to make progress on climate change you want to get to some of those the points of control to see in the course of this cult conversation let's bring in now . brussels bureau chief of max hole from who is in for the sars welcome. walter the musings of people are going to be looking out for is that between president trump of america president paying of china is quite a lot riding on that. there's a lot riding on that it's probably the meeting economically speaking that will have
5:04 pm
by far the most impact remember g. twenty was founded to increase prosperity and coordination economic or coordination in the world although it also was there to advance multi-lateralism something that the argentinean president might create recalled and opening the g twenty here on friday another important meeting though is also taking place or actually two important meetings on friday and those are politically those are between the french president a man who in my call and the russian president vladimir putin. is due to meet putin on saturday that meeting still stands and in the evening to reset may and the saudi crown prince we just talked about that here earlier that is probably the only bilateral meeting between the european leader and the saudi crown prince and theresa may has already announced that she would be very robust in what she had to say to the crown prince yes it's hard to know who is it was who's going to be the
5:05 pm
biggest villain of the over the next two days between the american president assad and the saudi crown prince and indeed russia is a president who said we can perhaps we'll have a televised vote i'm willing to say to the point a of the meeting between donald trump and and china i get the impression that though lots of countries dislike the way that donald trump has gone about highlighting his problems with china and imposing sanctions you need to actually i think lots of lots of countries seem to like stand behind him even if they don't stand behind his execution let's say it like this i think many other countries including european countries see real justification in his complaints about theft of intellectual property in his complaints about state action in china to. industries particularly
5:06 pm
in fields like artificial intelligence and i t and would like to push china for change also it to open its markets to services from europe and the u.s. but they don't want to see this done at the expense of the international order that is to say at the expense of the world trade organization not a perfect institution but the only one we have where trade disputes can be resolved by orderly orderly mechanisms there's a real dispute resolution process there in place and i think the dilemma for european leaders is how can they try to push china on the substance but not at the same time undermine that international trading order that in fact has seen real damage due to the trumped unilateral approach so that is kind of a tightrope that they are walking but uncle americal or german officials were asked prior to the summit whether they were planning perhaps to try to build alliances
5:07 pm
against china and they said very clearly no there's not going to be any alliance building of that type at this summit so much talk with a given those those tensions just anybody expect a definitive decision to come out of this meeting between the presidents of china and the united states to do we expect this this particular problem to be moved on. this is probably the only issue where there might be sort of a an outcome because we don't know what the donald trump is planning for that meeting yet he said in a typical fashion before yeah maybe we'll have a deal but i'm not sure i really want that i think those are pretty close to his exact words but if they do strike a deal if they do and trade war the repercussions for the world economy are enormous because those are the two biggest economies in the world and by the way the europeans are looking at that quite worrisome as well because if this is
5:08 pm
resolved between the states and china in a bilateral fashion then this would also hurt the european union it could lead them out of that deal hurting the economies of the european union so this is by far like i said earlier the most important meeting we have don't expect any kind of outcome with the with pushing for example or with the saudi crown prince that compares to the potential of that meeting between trump and she and just what we brussels bureau chief just explain to us why that what position the european union how's that at this g. twenty meeting given that it's of industrialized nations of course the e.u. is not a nation. well they have become the champion of multilateralism forget trade matters are european matters so it's not the germans that negotiate trade agreements with other countries or the french that to negotiate trade agreements with other countries it's the european union as a whole and that was in the beginning one of their core competence is still is of
5:09 pm
the e.u. but one of the reasons why it was founded to bring that economic benefit to be able to hit harder on a global level because having the single market gives all the smaller countries within the e.u. more weight so they are trying to defend that that the talking line of the european countries that are here is very clear even the italians multi-lateralism is important and we need to make sure that we keep that system in order while of course making concessions for example they are all for reforming the world trade organization and as we understand the sherpas the european sherpas managed to integrate that in the draft communique that is being said that is still being negotiated but apparently that part is already done so they try to give a little to preserve the order that the europeans have so much profited from in the past. the crimes go back to what one of the points that you made about all this
5:10 pm
this international turbulence of issues like yemen jamal khashoggi crimea if the g. twenty a forum where those sorts of issues can actually be sorted out it's not supposed to be the fact is that the g. twenty was a sort of a widening of the g. seven both of them created essentially to underpin the international economy to get international leaders talking about crucial economic issues and the actual topic of this summit was supposed to be fair and sustainable development that's one of the reasons it's taking place in latin america so no these these. news items that have come up in the past week are search. it's deflecting attention from crucial long term structural issues that absolutely need to be addressed if we think about the state of the argentinean economy that's a very good example of how necessary it is to talk about those kinds of issues as you as you know forty percent inflation in argentina people really unable to afford
5:11 pm
food it's been one of the concerns that there could be major demonstrations there by their eat troubled argentinian citizens who don't know what the future looks like all of those are the kind of issues that are supposed to be talked about at a meeting like this but as you say we're probably going to see a lot of attention focused on whether uncle americal comedian between ukraine and russia a very important issue no question but deflecting attention from these other crucial long term questions and we'll pick up a point with a much brighter side as the german chancellor has not reached the argentinean capital yet because of a plane trouble she's taking to i'm not be reapplying what has she missed. you know we still have to wait for five hours until she's here to be quite honest she hasn't missed that much yet she had a bilateral sketch scheduled in for this afternoon with donald trump that's
5:12 pm
certainly important it might still happen we're not sure if it doesn't happen as a full blown bilateral i'm sure they'll get the chance to meet on the sidelines of the actual meetings what we have now is family photo a family picture being taken the family picture is when all the heads of state government are in the same picture although they really don't act as a family at the moment you have to tell that and after that you have the will of the dispenser of the official working group about a sustainable and sustainable future. better life for everybody those are in general the topics of these working sessions that can mean everything and nothing but at this moment the g. twenty isn't about really advancing in that direction it's about trying to keep as much as possible of the status quo so those as those meetings not aren't necessarily that important that's also one of the reasons why we're all focusing on these bilateral meetings on the sidelines that are more a political nature except of course the one with gigi ping on saturday evening because you might actually have a result or even
5:13 pm
a feeling for what will happen with some of the big crises and and problems we have in the world today russia ukraine one of them what happens with the saudi government another one myself in thank you chief political correspondent linda crane thank you as well as you've been hearing along with trade that other pressing issues of this summer's including how to reduce the rising tensions between russia and ukraine today ukraine has announced a ban on all of fighting age russian men from entering the country and ukrainian president petro poroshenko again show evidence of what he claims russian military tanks amassing along his country's border at the times just eighteen kilometers from ukraine are said to be close to where russia stores its i mean ition and weapons systems. i didn't do correspondent david studies indicate i have a following these developments when i asked him i wanted ukraine is about combat age russian and chinese territory well apparently very worried about it as you say
5:14 pm
the president has announced that men between the ages of sixteen and sixty will be prevented from coming into the country this is part of a general crackdown or restriction he said on all foreigners coming in but they will be targeting in particular russians and the reason he said was to prevent them from forming. from forming a military groups and this is all part of the general martial law that we saw introduced to passed by parliament earlier in the week and we've been waiting to see exactly what the elements of this martial law is now it's coming out in bits and pieces and obviously this is going to affect life very people living in the ten territories which are find themselves under martial law on the border areas near russia and the black and as of seize. it was to report a factor some of the other stories making news around the world a yellow vest demonstration in central brussels turned violent as protesters burned

5:16 pm
correspondents geoff and siemens went to the camp and met some of the migrants who had walked thousands of kilometers in search of a new life. the most unique thing about the warmest biggest challenge there for the so-called caravan migrants is that it provides hardly any shelter at all at least not from the elements not from the rain and not from the cold during freezing nights. this week made by city officials to hold a maximum of just two thousand five hundred people this place now houses more than six thousand migrants and in a few days that number will rise to seven thousand including more than one thousand babies toddlers and young children. we need cindy pinner we talked to her about a week ago she had just arrived with two of her four sisters and without her father the family had gotten separated on their journey to tijuana now they are reunited but conditions here after magically deteriorate it always feels better man we're in

this you're still had an unpredictable president with harsh rhetoric at times you have the europeans who are ever more ready to escalate now than ever before rather than negotiate while in the gating valid claims to change their own policy in china still facing challenges on their treatment of intellectual property and opening their markets so you still have the three i would say major players major blocs at this summit with major issues and the market suffering as a result because of the expected result for the economy and the jobs in the right they keep outs for us a financial course. thank you. well europe is finally getting its own electronic payment system it's cool tips and it's designed to compete with other digital wallet systems that are growing quickly in popularity much like its american in asia competitors tips from asus to be a contact less than super fast online payment system that should help europe's
