but the main theme of this year's meeting is the fight against inequality in all its forms there's war. in developed nations the gap between the rich and the poor has reached its highest level in the past 50 years the average income of the richest 10 percent of the population is now about 9 times that of the poorest 10 percent. and. the anger of those that feel left behind was most popular in france this year's g 700. that was it triggered the yellow vest protests that raged for 5 months and false president maicon to announce a host of measures to redress economic inequality. that anger has also sparked a trend towards anti establishment an anti elite movements donald trump's provocative rhetoric chimes with that mood. as

does the brig's a debate in britain. the. was . and that anger has federalizing support for populist parties often on the far right. that. was in berlin the alternative for germany is now the main opposition party in parliament. life cited. while in italy much hail salvini head of the and jim aggression league party could soon be crowned the new prime minister. the main drive behind many of their voters economic dissatisfaction so while the g 7 leaders will be discussing how to fight global inequality there remains a lot of work for them to do on their own doorstep. let's talk about some of that

work now with claudia smoko she's the head of the globalization and world economy program of the german council on foreign relations thanks very much for coming in this morning let's start out with the amazon the host of the summit the g. 7 summit wants to bring it to the top of the agenda manual mccraw is that going to happen the g 7 is a very informal format which means you don't have a strict agenda what you need to talk about which means once of you to meet they would talk about everything that's pressing and urgent and says that's something you want to talk about so they were definitely have that discussion on the amazon forest ok no you've been following cloudy the g. 7 for many years now fighting economic inequality is the main theme at this summit but that's something we've seen before definitely the president see it's a very informal format as i said before and the president chooses the focus off the t 7 just to give a tomato to it to make it easier for the people to understand what they are talking

about but then you choose inequality and below this headline many of the old issues they've been negotiating for a long time so on the inequality they talk about gender inequality konami inequality climate inequality so they basically continue the agenda with a slightly different focus ok but following this agenda is going to be complicated this year isn't it by the by the time presidency u.s. president donald trump as head of time he's going to hold bilateral talks what as you mentioned is a very informal group of everyone sitting around the table how is that going to affect this summit well the thing is you need content since it is 7 is an informal group as i said no rules or regulations how to deal with how to find a compromise so what you need is you talk you know each other you you sort of find a compromise and if one country or the u.s. president on trump is not willing to negotiate with the of those the whole summit will be will reach no confusion which is the problem for this kind of format. if he

comes and says i really basically want to do by letras this is a discreet guide for the g. 7 for mitt because he says i don't care about much letter it isn't i don't care about the 7 i am here the president of the united states and i want to talk to individual people ok money will mccall nonetheless get something done in spite of the bilateral sobig going on led by the u.s. president yes he's very eager he's very focused he has been preparing a lot what he wants to achieve and actually they've been negotiating for a whole year it's not that the only have the summit and suddenly need to read to conclusion the media or in many of the newspaper focus on the on the conflicts which means they focus on climate change they focus on trade because of you have all the trade problems but there are many more issues but they are actually getting along so something will get done the question is is it enough for this kind of summit ok what what's going to come out of the summit what do you see getting done as a longtime observer of the g 7 well there are many issues which are not only dealing

with trade and climate change i think they will have a focus on the paris agreement because france is the holes but there's the danger that they will have this kind of 26 versus united states agreement but they will have a renewed commitment with regard to trade they definitely help to get something done and reform but this is a very sensitive issue as we all know we have taxation that's high on the agenda so we might get some kind of minimum tax form or to national corporations we have migration on the agenda we have digitization how to educate people how to use digitisation as a source for economic froze so there are many issues that need to be tackled but actually everybody will look at how does climate change in trade come out of it so it's will be a very critical summit ok climate is climate politics and trade the 2 areas where we could see progress claudio thanks very much for coming in you're welcome. let's preview now some of the other stories making the news today italy's president
