we will show you how you can adapt it to america's technological future, , and wait until you hear what mayor mick jeeves is serving up now, mcdonald's, making moves. it let's get into it. >> now, shepard smith reporting, live from the fox news desk. he threw president trump began his first debates meeting with vladimir putin of russia, by discussing the concerns of the american people, about russia's meddling in the u.s. election. rex tillerson says that president trump and president putin at the g20 summit had a robust and lengthy conversation on the subject. >> on more than one occasion, spoke about russian involvement, putin denied such involvement as i think he has done in the past. the leaders agreed that this is a substantial thing. >> shepard: he says that the russians have asked for proof

that the kremlin interfered, sergey lavrov said that president trump accepted president putin's denial. american intelligence says there is no doubt at all that russian interfered in the election, and that putin ordered the meddling. they refused to say whether for certain whether the kremlin was silly to blame, he said it could have been russia, could have also been other people in other countries, of course, the former intelligence director told andrea clapper of nbc today it was the russians, only the russians. the german government released a video showing president trump and putin greeting each other with a handshake at the opening of the g20, and at one point, trump gave putin a pat on the back. they later spoke to reporters before meeting behind closed doors. >> present putin and i have been in discussions, various things, i think it is going very well, we have had some very good talks, we are going to have a talk now, obviously, that will

continue. but we look forward to a a lot of very positive things happening for russia, for the united states, and for everybody concerned. it is an honor to be with you, thank you. >> shepard: that traits there, the extending of the hand by president trump's all over russian media today, president trump was sort of giving into him, the russians are good at manipulating. then the two leaders did shake hands, and present putin's book. listen. >> your excellency, mr. president, i have spoken over the phone with you several times, bilateral and international issues, the phone conversation was never enough. positive developments in bilateral issues that we think need personal meeting. i am delighted to be able to meet you in person, mr. president, and i hope as you have said, our meeting will

yield positive results, his excellency. >> shepard: they did not respond when journal shouted questions about russia's meddling in the u.s. election, the white house set a plan for today's meeting to last about 3, 136 minutes. we will have much more ahead on what u.s. officials say the two leaders discussed, thousands of demonstrators rallied against g20, police are out in full force again and hamburger, they have taken to the streets, the majority of the demonstrators have been peaceful, according to local authorities, with people marching in the street, holding protest lands, but of course, some people did fight with police, there are anarchists on scene, they always are for the g20, water cannons to try to push the protesters back, demonstrators used umbrellas in an attempt to shield themselves, it didn't go perfectly. the protest also prevented the first lady, melania trump, from joining other leaders spouses

for their own planned event. they sensed them into the meeting to see if she could get them out of there. secretary tiller's and said that the meeting lasted another hour, and joked that clearly she had failed. john roberts is live in hamburg. >> good afternoon, just over my right shoulder, you can see the remnants of what was a pretty big fire, that was going just a few minutes ago. looks like more troublemakers are mixing it up, they use those water cannons not only to control the protesters but also to put out fires, they have now changed the black smoke to whites, indication that it had a lot of water on it. it is in the process of going out. you know, you played what president trump said or talked about what he said yesterday in poland about sort of spreading the blame around when it came to meddling in the election, saying it could have been russia, i think it was, but it could have been other people as well, he

was widely criticized for taking some of the heat off of russia, but today, according to rex tillerson, at the very beginning of the meeting, they confronted president putin had on about accusations of meddlin meddling. >> the president opens the meeting with presidents putin by raising the concerns of the american people, regarding russian interference in the 2016 election. now they had a very robust and lengthy exchange on the subject, and they agreed it to exchange for their work regarding commitments of noninterference. in the affairs of the united states and our democratic process, as well as those of other countries. there is still more work to be done in that regard. >> as you pointed out in the beginning, vladimir putin denied any culpability in meddling in the election, to some degree, trumps that we are going to

agree to disagree on this point, now how do we move past all of that and try to get a more constructive relationship going between the united states and russia? there was one moment as well where the leaders seem to share a laugh, the bilateral spray at the top of this meeting, as they were on their way out, president of trump and president putin leaned into each other, he said these are the ones, a reference to the pesky media who is always getting him questions, the two managed to get a little bit of humor there and there two hours and 15 minutes, they had an awful lot of time to talk about an awful lot of issues, so we will see where this goes from here. >> shepard: what is next for the sponge? >> in terms of leaders, nothing, there is nothing scheduled, rex tillerson, secretary of state, so that there a lot of meetings that will be set up at a staff level to go over a lot

of the issues that they were talking about, one thing that i found very interesting is when you look at the first bilateral meetings that president trump with a number of foreign leaders, whether it be president teresa may, there was always an invitation there to come visit our country, come to britain, come to adjust, come to china, there was no such invitation from putin or given to putin. no, they are not quite bed down for the road in their relationship. >> shepard: a separate meeting kind of got overshadowed by this, he met with the mexican president, of course the wall came up again. >> or the wall didn't come up again, we talk about a lot of issues, drug trafficking, they talked about illegal drug trafficking, "during the bilateral meeting itself, there was no talk about the border wall, certainly no talk about

who's going to pay for it, but again, that pesky media that is always down there couldn't help but reminding president trump that he said mexico is going to pay for the wall, watch this. >> do you want mexico to pay for the wall? >> when asked who is going to pay for the well if it was going to be mexico, he sort of said under his breath absolutely. one of those uncomfortable moments, which is why many times these leaders are not exactly thrilled to see the media to be getting in here. >> shepard: understood, john roberts on a noisy smoky day in hamburg, your local fox nation this weekend, sometimes a photo op is just a follow-up. >> yeah, and from the accounts we have gone from both sides, the meeting went surprisingly long, as john pointed out, it was supposed to be a half-hour, it was two euros and 50 minutes,

they had a lot to talk about, as tiller tillerson related outs, they talked about syria, and that apparently was the greatest part of the conversation, the most detailed part of the conversation, there was agreement afterwards to try to work out a cease-fire beginning on sunday in southwestern syria that is going to be negotiated amongst the u.s. and russia in jordan, which is right on the border there. that seemed to be the brunt of the meeting, they also talk about the ukraine, north korea, they made some specific progress. >> we are led to believe that the russians might put in a request, in other words lower some sanctions, and that the united states might come back and say that you need to get ou out, from the readouts that we heard, he doesn't seem like that has happened, at least not yet. >> no, and to a greater extent, the question the president bring

up at the very beginning, the russian meddling, he pointed out that this was creating real issues in the american congress, and as we know, the senate just backed by 98-2, a measure that would increase this, so we don't know exactly, but there seems to be a little of a nuance that's one of which the ways that he was talking about meddling with putin, is saying that this is really a bar in terms of the u.s. to any future problems of lifting sanctions. >> shepard: you wonder if he might have at some point come forward and said look, we are a democracy, we are the most powerful country in the world, we don't stand for stuff like this, and you wonder if some of this, at least media pressure and citizenry pressure wouldn't diminish to a great deal, i wonder if you will. >> well, it is interesting, a lot of these questions that were asked of the secretary of state,

this is what he saw while the briefing was going on somebody said in the discussion of meddling, did the president's unequivocally to putin that he believes that russia meddled, particularly when russia denied it, that is something that he hasn't especially said when he was talking to the american media, he sort of doctor that's, the other points he made his look, we are going to agree to disagree on this, we are going to say that they did it and they will say that they didn't come of the real key is to make forward and make sure that never happens again, there was some work in that regard, there was talk about a working group that would meet, no future meeting between trump and putin, i don't know how they do that. you can make promises, but to prevent that kind of cyber interference, not only in the election to the u.s. but also other countries, we know that it went on in france as well. >> shepard: more to come on

all the action in the g20, including that the new agreements between washington and moscow for a cease-fire, as chris put it in the southwest of syria, how big of a deal could that be, coming up on this friday afternoon. in jellyfish. in clinical trials, prevagen has been shown to improve short-term memory. prevagen. the name to remember.

we demand a lot from our eyes every day. i should know. i have chronic dry eye caused by reduced tear production due to inflammation. so i use restasis multidose. it helps me make more of my own tears,

with continued use, twice a day, every day. it's also what i prescribe to my patients who have this condition. restasis multidose helps increase your eyes' natural ability to produce tears, which may be reduced by inflammation due to chronic dry eye. restasis multidose did not increase tear production in patients using anti-inflammatory eye drops or tear duct plugs. to help avoid eye injury and contamination, do not touch the bottle tip to your eye or other surfaces. wait 15 minutes after use before inserting contact lenses. the most common side effect is a temporary burning sensation. your eyes. your tears. ask your eye doctor about restasis multidose. >> shepard: as we reported, the u.s. and russia have agreed to a cease-fire in syria, as he had the first meeting today with

russian president, president putin. this is the first indication that the two countries might be able to work together in that war-torn country, secretary tillerson acknowledges that we have differences when it comes to syria, but our ultimate goal is the same, make syria a stable and unified place, russia has supported the brutal dictator bosch are all also odd, but he says that there is no long-term plan for his resume. >> we certainly made it clear in our discussions with russia, that we do not think that syria can achieve international recognition in the future, even if they had a successful political process, we are not going to accept a syria led by the assad regime. >> shepard: previously cease-fires have failed, we speak with chris wallace, the smatter of a cease-fire i guess is a start, but no assad, that

doesn't sound like something that the russians have been willing to entertain. >> absolutely not, and i was surprised the little bits that tillerson said that our objectives are the same, it is our means of getting there that are different, i mean if the objective is peace in syria, i suppose they are the same, but we have completely different views of the way to achieve that, obviously, russia has made it clear that they very much want to back bashar-al assad, he is there instrument for power in the middle east, they have been backing his regime, along with the iranians, and backed him as he has settled hundreds of thousands of civilians in the country, the u.s. has strongly felt, and you heard it again from tillerson, that's assad as part of the problem, not part of the solution, so there is a strong disagreement between the two countries, we can talk all that we want to build what if

they got along, how the body language was, but in the end, each country and is going to proceed with national interests from the viewpoint of vladimir putin, bashar-al assad maintaining power is very much in their national interest, russian influence in the middle east, we know that bashar-al assad is the butcher of baghdad, and we want to mount, we think that he is part of the problem and part of russian influence, and also iranian influence in that part of world. >> shepard: you mentioned the objects of them getting along, i have been reading from lots of different folks today who are not so sure that is a great thing, after all, this man interfered in our election or at least attempted to do so, according to our intelligent se see, first time the kind of thing has happened since world war ii, he backs his murderous dictator, who is killing hundreds of thousands of his own people, it doesn't seem like a guy that you should get

along with. >> well, we get along with a lot of people that we don't like it, we have gotten along with at the height of the cold war, i mean that we had civil meetings, with soviet dictators, with russian dictators, and various other dictators all over the world, we don't get to choose whether other countries have people leaving them. who is leading them. but the point is, we do have to do some business, and it is better to have a working relationship, doesn't mean that you are a buddy buddy, but hopefully it we will find ways to solve some problems. as we have been talking about syria, more conceivably to try to get them to stop meddling in our elections and in the democratic elections of other countries. >> shepard: that didn't help much, get in the same room together and start talking about mutual beneficiary items, maybe they could come to something. >> i think the key though here

is, and we may not know this for years, is the measure that they took of each other, and you know, did putin come away from the meeting thinking what, trump is tougher than i thought, and he is going to be a bigger force that i have to deal with, or is he going to think that he can play him, conversely, what does trump think of putin, that is really the most important thing, and as we have seen in the past with things like reagan and gorbachev or kennedy and khrushchev, that's kind of innate sense of how i can do business with this person, can i push them around, or do i have to be careful, is really the last thing. >> shepard: you are right, we may not know for a while. it was great to talk to you, thank you. we will be watching the sunday, when chris talks with the white house chief of staff, that is an exclusive, i am told, they will talk g20, , and the president's agenda going forward, also the latest on the health care bill. bill cassidy who sits on the

senate health committee that the sunday, check your local tv listings for the time in your area. tomorrow, he has a another high-profile meeting, this is with china's present come xi jinping, comes after president trump slaps the country on twitter for their failure to keep north korean check. now, china is out with a big show of force, so what does it mean when the leaders came face to face? that is next. ♪

what should i watch? show me sports. it's so fluffy! look at that fluffy unicorn! he's so fluffy i'm gonna die! your voice is awesome. the x1 voice remote. xfinity. the future of awesome. >> the south korean presence as he is now willing to meet with the north korean dictator kim jong on face to face, they tested an intercontinental ballistic missile early this week, which scientists say is powerful enough to reach alaska.

the president of south korea says that he would be willing to put all topics on the negotiation table, including the issue of the communist regimes growing nuclear program. after tuesday's launch, the north korean dictator said that he would never put his weapons program up for negotiation. tensions rise over north korea, trump has repeatedly called on china to put pressure on the north, and on wednesday, he tweeted the following, trade between us grew almost 50% in the third quarter, so much for trying to working with the scum but we had to give it a try. chinese officials now pushing back on that statistic, saying it was an exception, and that it came after three straight years of declining trade between china and north korea, yesterday, reporters asked trump if he had given up on xi jinping, and he

replied i never give up. in what appeared to be a friendly meeting, later in the month, president trump called kim jong un a very good man. >> north korea is not the only area of disagreement. >> this has been a complicated relationship for years, wanted that president trump vilified last year on the campaign trail, the u.s. has long complained about a number of issues, whether it comes to the trading deficits, whether intellectual property theft is happening, the u.s. businesses that are competing in china, and whether their government supports them, there are also human rights concerns, than there is the south china sea, the chinese

government continues building on, that the u.s. is continuing to conduct freedom of navigation operations, become a thing that is international waters, so there are a number of fronts that go beyond the north korea relationship. >> mike >> shepard: do they expect more sanctions here? >> it is something that the u.s. may perhaps continue to pursue, this is an issue that's at the state department has commented on, rex tillerson acknowledging sanctions with the u.s. past just last week, a number of chinese businesses conducting business with north korea firms, they said that that really stresses the u.s. position on this. >> our experience with china has been, and i have said this to others, it has been a bit hard, china has taken significant action, and then, for a lot of different reasons, the sanctions

engine that was taken here in just the last week to ten days certainly got their attention in terms of their understanding are resolved. >> on any further sanctions, the u.s. and the state department continues and refused to comment on anything that may come forward in the future. >> shepard: thank you, and a show of military might, china's first and only aircraft carrier sailed into hong kong today, rising tensions in that region, failures on deck of the carrier said hello hong kong and chinese letters, marks 20 years since the british government put forth the hong kong handover, giving control to the city of china, the president's recently visited the city, challenging the authority of the chinese government, officials in beijing say that they are making the final preparations on a final aircraft carrier. prime targets for hackers,

computer virus was unleashed on iran, and it released a sum of their nuclear power plant, so we know the tax can cause trouble, and called the new report of a cyber attack series a serious enough threat to national security, here is the correspondent, rick. >> according to the times, the techniques were very similar to those used by a russian hacking group that's they have been attracting for years, begins with targeted email messages, containing a fake resumes for engineering jobs, sent to senior management, the resumes were reportedly laced with malicious code, once the recipients click on them, the hackers could gain access to other machines or networks, they also compromise legitimate web sites, the other vehicle and mike victims frequented, redirecting internet traffic through their own machines, in a joint statement, the fbi said that there is no

indication of a threat to public safety, and wolf creek at, one of the targets, so that everything is still running smoothly, completely separate from the corporate networks, safety and control networks are not connected to business networks or the internet, the plan continues to operate safely. investigators aren't saying or don't know if this was an attempted espionage, like i don't know, destroying the system or beyond that, may be stealing government secrets are doing some real damage. >> shepard: that is my next question, we don't really know what they're trying to do, do w we? >> shepard: they're trying to map it out for future attacks, but it is still not completely clear what they're looking for, if they found what they're looking for, as you mention, kansas senator jerry moran has weighed in, he called this deeply concerning and a serious threat to national security, and he tweeted to that i am working with the authorities to learn more and ways in which our federal government can work more

closely to protect our infrastructure systems from cyber attacks, there are apparently no reports of operational security being affected and any nuclear plant across the country, but obviously, this is something that we have to look at much more closely. >> shepard: senate majority leader mitch mcconnell said that they may need to fix the affordable care act instead of repealing it altogether. mitch mcconnell telling voters in his home state of kentucky that if they cannot agree on a bill, they instead need to do something to fix the insurance market, which they set are imploding all over the country and are irreparable. yesterday, ted cruz said i don't know if we can get it done or not. for seven years, we told voters over and over again, if you will like this, the one thing you know about us, if you elect us, we will repair obamacare, i think we looked like a laughing socks because we can't get it together and do we said we are due.

>> pass a new health care bill, where does the g.o.p. health care bill stan redbone of? >> welcome we are told it is still a work in progress, sometime next week, which we don't know is what those revisions are and if they will be enough to win over at least 50 republicans were to pass. that was mitch mcconnell's latest, may not be any closer to having that happen, but now even some republicans who ran explicitly on repealing obamacare are now open to simply fixing it. working with democrats to do that. here is g.o.p. senator jerry moran yesterday. >> we have no choice but to work together to find a solution. i need to find allies, whether they are republicans or democrats to work on issues that affect rural america, and because there is just not enough

of us. >> fixing obamacare is what democrats have been going for a long, chuck schumer said that it is encouraging that the issues with the exchanges are fixable, and it opens the door to buy parts and solutions. as we see time and time again, democrats are eager to work with republicans to do this. they are still holding out hope that they will be able to get the votes that they need for this revised health care bill. shepard. >> shepard: what is the latest on what was said to be getting some support >> ted cruz and rand paul didn't support the current bill because according to them, doesn't do anything to lower monthly premiums, so the goal is to lower the cost by allowing insurers to sell health plans with as little courage as a person wants, as long as the insurer also offers at least one

plan that meets the requirements of obamacare, the congressional budget team, currently well it is popular with conservatives, moderate republicans, they have their own concerns, and that could increase after we get the report. >> shepard: especially medicaid. already, good to talk to you. let's bring in the associate editor at real clear politics, you know, i figured it was a matter of time. you looked at the bowl, obamacare above 50%, they repealed it 52 times before they can actually do anything. >> well, if they had better numbers, as you know, shepard, and the senate, they can only lose as you said to votes, they had a majority, and they have a bunch of people saying that they can't vote for a new one over the recess, weed and saying that he was a new opponent of the bill, but the gap is widening,

and they just don't have the space to do a republican bill only, they probably could, but they don't. so you really hear sort of what i think is a grim concession from the majority leader, trying to give a signal to his party, that he is probably going to fall short and they are going to have to get ready to just pass something that is far short of a repeal and the kind of reforms that conservative republicans will want. >> shepard: and yes, the vast majority of them might come around, i don't know if you are a ted cruz type, but some of the rest of them might. >> many of them are reading the poll's, which is why they are really concerned about cutting this back, and expended that under obamacare, you see them working hard, very conservative senators who just a few years ago, you would not have drowned running for a medicaid expansion are working hard to protect it,

but you will definitely have conservatives who can't be placated, i think that they will try to do some sort of repeal vote, so that they can be on the record saying that they voted to repealed, and they'll move on to working with democrats, and when they do, because leader mcconnell was talking about how that won't be for many members, who once it's out of health care entirely, and demand, posing that bipartisan products, which we all hope will fix the system, but those activists will be out in force next year, mid election, angry that they could not have kept their promise. >> shepard: >> probably. it's an interesting thing, right? we expected all of these republicans to line up with president trump, we have a

coalition of voters who depend on them for a safety net, so you look at all of these members of the house freedom caucus, for example, we thought that we did a lineup with the present, and they didn't. they said it wasn't conservative enough, so actually, the tale of who has the nerve and a trump district to actually primary a conservative, it will really be an interesting story over the end of this next year. >> shepard: 52 votes, 52 times, it is a hard thing to come to grips with. >> well, it is very hard for them. they are tormented by this because they really truly believe, and they have told me, leadership sources, they have said we have to get health care reform, or we're just not really going to see a path to tax reform, and that is what they want the most. >> shepard: we will see. a few years ago, billionaire bill gates warned that technology is going to start taking more and more jobs away.

he said even waiters and drivers and nurses. but american workers are adapting. we will show you how they are doing it. up next. (woman) when you have type 2 diabetes,

factory floors, u.s. companies created 894,000 new manufacturing jobs over the last seven years. >> we think that robotics has had a positive impact on u.s. manufacturing, by creating better, safer, and higher paying jobs for american workers. most importantly, making american companies more competitive. the idea that robots make them efficient enough to work. vary widely in their predictions on job numbers, most agree that robots are going to transform the nature of manufacturing jobs in the u.s., making them more high skilled and more high-tech. >> shepard: workers need training to deal with these changelings. >> yeah, they do, and as far as needing these skills, it is a huge problem for potential employers, in fact, according to that group, 80% of manufacturers say that they are having a hard

time finding qualified applicants for these positions. republican private groups are trying to bridge that gap, and alabama, the robotics technology park offers free technical training to existing workers and that's state, $80 million investment to make alabama more competitive, and for future workers, children programs, they are teaching computer programming, the cofounder grew up in a mining family, he tries to break the stereotype of coding being reserved for entrepreneurs in silicon valley, he considers it a basic skill for workers in everyday situations. >> we are trying to prepare them for something that we don't even know if it is going to be there yet, the jobs that these kids would be doing don't even exist yet. >> that is how fast the technology is evolving. >> jonathan in our atlanta newsroom, they say that wildfires burning have torched a
