is the center of the political atlas the leaders of the world's 20 largest economies flying in for what promises to be a stressful program. small talk is sure to be drowned out by u.s. president donald trump's heavy footsteps as he continues his campaign of america 1st. the trade war he started with china will dominate discussions though few expect talks between trump and chinese president xi jinping on saturday to result in a truce few trade relations between china and the u.s. . difficult the. contributing to dislocate of the global economy the trumpet ministration has also ramped up pressure on iran withdrawing from the nuclear deal was just the beginning new sanctions and threats of war followed all of that has the attention of those here.

maintaining. if individual and international security interests. the e.u. is commit to it so that you as long as you continues to uphold it. outside the confines of the heavily guarded summit site. citizens are urging action on climate change activists went out not only on osaka streets but also on hong kong's where protesters called for support from g 20 leaders for their pro-democracy movement. beijing has already forbid in other countries from discussing the hong kong unrest at the summit. german chancellor angela merkel arrived in good spirits and osaka this after a 2nd bout of unexplained trembling in front of cameras led to speculation about her health. her good cheer will have to endure she's due in brussels on sunday to negotiate a new leadership for the e.u.

. our correspondent max hoffman as in it was saka and joins us now from there good to see you max a lot to discuss at this g. 20 summit what's taking center stage. japan is trying to focus more on the traditional g 20 topics remember this is an institution that was founded to advance multilateral trade in the world so they wanted to talk about things like reform and reforming the world trade organization but with the 2 biggest world economies china and the u.s. team the ring on the edge of a full blown trade war of course that's taking center stage and specifically the bilateral meeting between u.s. president donald trump and chinese president xi jinping on saturday a lot is riding on that bilateral meeting you just mentioned i understand that the chinese and americans have been working a lot on trying to resolve their dispute much progress has been made use do you

think there's going to be the final push here at this g. 20 to get get a deal. well there's 2 things we need to look at when we talk about trade as i just mentioned multilateral side and we're hearing from the sherpa of the people that and negotiating this final declaration that usually is accepted by all the leaders on saturdays it's not going to well especially on the topic of climate and how to fight climate change and then of course on trade because of countries like the united states that with donald trump are no longer supporting multilateral trade as for the u.s. china relations it's difficult to read terry because there are some signals from some sources that say that the u.s. are ready for a truce meaning they're not going to slap on those additional terrorists on chinese goods as donald trump had threatened in the past and they might work something out but we heard exactly the same thing at the last 20 summit in his iris and what

followed afterwards was actually worse than what we had before had so the problem here is you really just can't trust what the u.s. president is saying because he changes his mind very quickly ok another topic there understand max is the iran nuclear deal the e.u. says it still hopes to see to salvage that deal and despite the u.s. pulling out of it could the remaining signatories of that deal the europeans the chinese the russians make some push there at the g 20 summit to discuss a common way forward. the official line of the european union is that they are still supporting the deal but behind closed doors official acknowledge that it's very difficult without the united states that deal just lacks the bite it lacks the influence without the united states to really make a difference and we've already seen that iran has proceeded to take measures because of that by announcing that they will proceed with the u. raney and richmond above the threshold of the nuclear deal so will this make any

difference here most likely not iran is not here either and so this topic might really be more or less on the sidelines with the europeans to be rather powerless to do anything without good news though the u.s. president said that there was still some time to work out something because of the tensions between iran and the united states so that gives some hope that this crisis won't escalate any further but i really have to stress this whatever the u.s. president says is often overturned in the next interview or the day after ok we've already had an interesting bilateral meeting take place understand max between donald trump and the russian leader vladimir putin any takeaways on that. well they haven't as far as i know that bilateral isn't over yet but before it started there were some interesting scenes between vladimir putin and donald trump for example one reporter asked donald trump whether he was going to tell about

a new putin not to meddle in the u.s. elections in 20 twentieth's and then donald trump said something yes of course he turned around and told putin please don't meddle in the u.s. election so that was probably an attempt at humor besides that he said he wanted to talk about trade and disarmament so nothing really you know nothing concrete you could take away from that we're still waiting for that meeting to end max thank you so much correspondent max hoffa on their sockets of pan. well u.s. presidential hopefuls have clashed over the past and the future at a 2nd democratic party debate in miami florida there vying for the chance to take on donald trump in 2020 former vice president joe biden was looking to cement his position as front runner in a crowded field but another candidate california senator harris put him on the defensive last. the same stage same format same jampacked gathering of 10

democratic candidates in the miami for the performing arts right behind me but this time 2 men are at the focus of attention former vice president joe biden and vermont senator bernie sanders who are running 1st and 2nd in most polls. as the debate. in miami began it quickly became clear that it was neither biden nor sanders who grabbed the spotlight it was harris they command the stage she criticized biden's recent remarks about working with segregation. is personal and i was actually very it was hurtful. to hear you talk about the reputations of 2 united states senators who built their reputations and career on the 2nd of phrase in this country. mr

my position across the board i do not praise. it is not true or number 2 if we want to have this campaign for civil rights whether i did or not i'm happy to do that i was a public it was the most dramatic moment i'm going to be repeated. and we should several attacks and by the former vice president however ames he spoke to me from the audience his daddy. i mean that to my hair is very strong so far and so i speak and there i think they're rice and they're definitely right. it's actually very competitive the candidates are all making their points really well i think that joe biden represents the largest portion of america and i think that joe biden can get someone that is considerably more liberal than he is as a vice president i think that what americans are willing to vote for and what a 1000000 americans would like to be represented by someone that stands in the

middle. by the supporters. he remains the best hope for the democrats donald trump out of the white house whoever will get the chance to challenge the president in the end the debate here in miami was only the beginning long and stop . and our correspondent alexander phenomena has been covering the debates joins us now from miami alexander going into this debate many thought it would come down to a clash between the 2 biggest names joe biden and bernie sanders but that's not how it turned out is it. yes that's right terry i found it quite interesting to see how the top the 2 top contenders were flexing their rhetorical muscles taking aim at each other at the beginning of the debate and then come along harris the senator from california jumped in and she was so patient and

she was so determined and she made clear that she came to participate in this debate to win it and i've been to some of her events to her companion kickoff rally in oakland a few months ago so i was aware that she is a good performer but to many people i talked to at the watch party we went to this night were very impressed by her by her personal story about growing up as a woman of color in the united states so a lot of rhetorical muscle on show there are the pictures we just saw there that's what americans were watching last night on n.b.c. what were the main issues in this debate alexander. the candidates talked about the many issues that are important not only to the

supporter of the democratic party but also to the working class americans to students to young people they talk about the economy they talk about whether it is necessary to increase taxes on rich people whether it is it makes sense to break big companies they talk about gun control they talk about calamitous change to talk about health care of course a huge topic here in the you asked and it was very clear that they do not agree on details on polisi details that there is a very clear distinction between the progressive wing of the car of the party and more moderate and centrist candidates. this was the 2nd of 2 debates involving 20 democratic hopefuls alexander have these events done anything to narrow the field i will say that it's too early to

talk about all that but what we saw in the last 2 nights here in miami reflect pretty much how the candidates have been polling lately so we have the 4 top contenders joe biden elizabeth warren the sender's and kaamelott harris and there is there are some candidates there they are struggling and they're comparing struggling to garner attention and raise money but i would say it's too early to say that you know it doesn't make for them make any sense for them to continue their companions w.'s of xander phenomena there in miami thank you so much. now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world today us republican senate majority leader mitch mcconnell says he backs president trump's approach to iran mitch mcconnell also said that trump doesn't want to go to war

semifinal but comments she made about the donald trump white house have taken the spotlight. should asylum seekers whose applications were refused to be held in prisons german lawmakers decide today on a package of laws that could make life harder for people awaiting deportation chance of going to medicals government wants to step up expulsions of refused asylum seekers but critics call the legislation inhumane. mohammad came to germany from afghanistan in 2014. shortly after he arrived he committed an offense for which he was convicted and sentenced. partly because of that his asylum application was turned down mohamed wants to stay in germany at all costs he has appealed the asylum decision and is waiting for the outcome. dr schwartz and i still have to work but i don't know what will happen

my life is up in the air i don't know what to do or i'm always afraid when i go to the place where i live i'm always afraid and i take medication every day to help to stay calm. the new migration package presented to the board is not today would leave mohamed and many other refugees with little chance of staying in germany. the government is looking to increase deportations in the future. in the past year or more planned deportations filed and took place. we decided that we should significantly intensify our ability to deport people. if the migration package is ratified more asylum seekers would end up in deportation jails or have to remain in so-called reception facilities longer unmarried skilled workers without other family members would have an easier time getting asylum but not

school aged refugees with a criminal record like mohammed good to book hot head of the refugee advocacy group who calls the package inhumane he says it will harm integration. i will spread the triggering fear in those affected refugees are isolated in places called anchor centers for one and a half years lester the walls and they can't work then people will say they can't be integrated into the workforce they don't even have a way and through the door. mohamed would rather die than go back to afghanistan but with the planned migration package he's losing hope of being able to remain safely in germany. thailand has been marking a year since the dramatic rescue of a boys' football team trapped in a cave in the north of the country earlier this week the boys and their coach returned to the cave to on are their rescuers and talk to the media their ordeal

shellshocked in one go to seconds and the norwegians couldn't recover so in want to run out 3 nil winners norway did have a color chances of their own and in his defense did look fake it was but it was a great performance from england a real statement of intent to the rest of the competition but let's take a look at how exactly they won the match. a close game was expected between these 2 evenly matched sides but in just the 3rd minute england took the lead lucy bronze went on a marauding run and her cross found jill scott. the midfielder providing a perfect improvised finish and sparing the blushes of striker ellen white. came to prove that it was a one off white almost put england to no luck only the post denied her an eye catching 5th goal of the tournament but she didn't have to wait much longer in the 48th minute nicky to paris raced through and unselfishly set up white norway simply couldn't cope with england's movement all whites ifa go. after

halftime bronze caps an outstanding performance with a goal that brought the coach and superstar fans alike to their feet a rocket to make it 3 nil and getting liniment and going into the semifinals. so england are through to the semifinals where they'll face either france the hosts or the reigning champions u.s.a. the co-captain of the american team megan rypien oh she's been making headlines ahead of that match tell us about it yeah indeed so rip a no is known for taking a stand for what she believes in she's a very proud member of the take community and she also really believes in equal rights for all people and she's been a front runner as well for the fight for equal pay for the women's football team but the video has re-emerged where she refused an invitation to the white house in

the case of america winning the world cup now it's a tradition in the united states for the u.s. president to invite sporting teams to the white house when they've won a national or international competition but retain has made clear that she is not a fan of the current american administration or their policies saying that they don't value all americans and of course her stance that started a war of words with current u.s. president donald trump after he found out about them but let's take a look at how that saga has unfolded. a war of words has disturbed the usas quarter final preparations comments meghan repeat no had made out a photo shoot back in january resurfaced this week. no not going to last us we're not going to be invited to be invited i doubt it us president donald trump took offense to these comments responding with a series of tweets he claimed to be quote

a big fan of the american team and women saka but meghan should win 1st before she talks finish the job he then said quote we haven't yet invited meghan or the team but i am now inviting the team win or lose meghan should never disrespect our country the white house or flag especially since so much has been done for her and the team. but meghan rippy no is thick skinned and has stood her ground of thursday's press conference she made only a small concession when it came to her previous remarks. i stand by the comments that i made about not wanting to go to the white house with the exception of the ex but if my mom would be very upset about that i don't think that i would want to go in and i would encourage my teammates to think hard about landing that platform or having that co-opted by administration that doesn't feel the same way doesn't fight for the same things that that we fight for the teams quarterfinal match with france

will be decided by the tightest of margins rypien 0 says if anything this incident will make them stronger. so not ideal preparation for the women's team there that it's clear that rip a no is not fazed you go to love her confidence i mean she was talking about not going to the white house before the u.s. have won the world cup so it's clear they're looking they believe that they're going to win this ok a lot of confidence there now before anything though the u.s. has to get past france to get anywhere do you think the game is going to be as straightforward as last night no not at all this is a true clash between 2 heavyweights to pretoria and favorites as well france the host they'll be playing in front of a full house and looking to use that to their advantage they have the players to hurt the u.s. but the u.s. of course have been here before defending champions they know how to win these games but there's one thing to expect it's goals even if france scored 2 or 3 us will be confident scoring for so i think is going to be a cracking game and it's not one to miss terry thank you so much alex break from
