commitment to withdrawal from the paris climate a coalition. now let's bring in data of the correspondent max health and his in one osiris for us getting this communique done was clearly no easy task tell us more about what it says. though it wasn't an easy task one of the sherpas told us he hadn't slept for fifty hours to get it done in the end but the result is rather not really comparable to previous years maybe with the exception of the last year and last year was the first g. twenty summit where donald trump the us president the new us president back then the ten that he was here to of course and that might be the reason why it's just been so hard to do what they did in the past for example put something in about condemning trade protectionism it's not in there this time or putting something in endorsing the multilateral trade system it's not in there although they do a little it's the benefits that the system has had in the past but they also said
