let's take a listen. cameras appear to be blocked. it's probably the only glimpse we'll get. it is the expanded bilateral. it is significant that the one on one meeting went over two hours. i'm here with our white house correspondent. the fact that the meeting lasted so long suggests that there was some common ground or props ter where they are disagreeing. it is the fact that the first

bilateral meeting went so long. it is the fact that when president trump made his sort of opening remarks to the summit he raised a number of issues they were going to discuss everything from the issue in china what he didn't talk about, you crane, crimea and election meddling. he was going to raise the issue heading in. it called for him to do that. what did he do at the start of the day before he even arrived at this summit. he tweeted. the russian investigation was a rigged. it comes on the heels of 12 russian intelligence officials. there will be abl lot of people concerned about the president's tweets today.

>> yeah. he didn't seem to mention anything that might cause discomfort or awkwardness. let's bring in richard. he is looking at how they are seeing it in moscow right now. what's the level of interest there what we are all watching? >> well, the interest is quite high. people feel russia is in a very strong position. this company hosted the world cup. now they are having the this meeting between president putin and president trump. saying this whole inquiry and we have a very specific indictment listing the names of the 12 russian military intelligence

officers that they say we are responsible for hacking the dnc and effectively carrying out water gate on the 2016 election. the russian government also saying it is something that gets in the way. so what we are seeing now is president trump trying to put what they are dismissing as petty issues while they can focus on the issues of global peace and they don't want to be bothered by these pesky things like meddling in the u.s. election. >> yeah. and the question of what's at stake is a broad one since they came into here with no agenda. i'll turn to you on this. the president left behind

bewilderment that the eu is a foe. they will be watching very carefully to see if this president has cozied up. it is treating him in a way he is not treating them any longer. >> you're right. it was stunning to be at the nato summit with president trump last week. he went to britain and criticized her on her home turf. he went into this summit with that tone, really sort of looking like he wasn't unified with some of the closest allies. the president of the european council says anyone who refer to them as a foe is fake news. you have the prime minister saying it is kril cat he be unified. i asked the president during a

press conference last week if he is effectively giving putinthe upper hand. he said bottom line he never answered the question. so that is going to be critical heading into the summit. he is just finishing the world cup. president trump today said it's one of the best world cups in history, really praising president putin. there are a lot on capitol hill that the president is looking some of those alliances. is it clear who has the upper hand here. putin would like to see some of those sanctions. >> it is very clear to me putin has the upper hand and the

fact that the president went in praising him saying how important better relations were. no one would argue about that. he had just on twitter blamed the worsening relationships on patched stupidity. he has handed a propaganda victory. that is such a damaging tweet. it was retweeted and they wrote we agree in retweeting it. they have now taken up president trump going into the summit. the one on one meeting went more than two hours with no official record, praising putin for the success of the world cup.

>> the president tweeted that the news enemy which is a phrase in one of his tweets this weekend coming into this summit. he was at that important news conference in the u.k. at

checkers and knows firsthand what it feels to be a target. >> okay. >> we are watching carefully. this is the last picture but saw a few moments ago. this is opposite side. this was the photo op. again, the next time we expect to see them on camera is for that news conference. we'll be back on the air for that. i'm lester holt, nbc news. good day everyone. you're watching a special report from nbc news. back here in the bay area good morning to you. thanks for joining us. >> let's get you caught up on what you can expect as you head out the door this morning. kari hall has been tracking the weather. >> we are going to have hotter temperatures today for the inland areas reaching up to 93 degrees today and 95 will be the peak of the heat.

really not much of a change. we will see morning clouds and fog and some afternoon clearing. we'll talk about what's ahead coming up in a few minutes. you're starting with the biggest slow down. >> that's right. it would be in the north bay. 101 getting less and less. north 101 here. activity shouldn't have been a major problem. it is combined with back ups and earlier crash. that's the toughest drive north of the 280 interchange. this shows a little bit. north 85 around fremont is showing one crash rest of the bay, slowing south 680 through

pleasanton. nothing major again. westbound getting towards the peninsula this is the san mateo bridge. you're seeing lower speeds. back to you. >> thanks a lot. coming up here on today in the bay the twitter battle with one of the drivers who helped rescue the boys soccer team stuck in thailand. i heard a faint cry for help. >> an oregon woman who went missing while drooiiving throug northern california, how the central coast couple helped find her and get her to safety. taking a look. the dow is up for us. stock opened. a little change to start off the week as corporate earnings season kicks into high gear.

the east bay approaching the bay bridge. a little slowing. nothing major. over here it's technically the tri valley. slow through pleasanton. >> thanks so much. it is a quart toer to 7:00. a shooting in concord. we have just learned three people are in custody. it happened near san miguel. the victim did not need to go to the hospital. no other details on how it started. the lines at the dmv keep getting worse. it could change. starting today offices opening an hour early to deal with higher demand. pete is live for us in san jose to explain these clangs.

-- changes. it seems like it should be getting busier and business seer, why? >> the reason is a lot of folks are applying for the real id. it is contributing to the long lines. one of two offices we are standing in front of, they are opening up in about 15 minutes to hopefully fix this problem. the line is growing by the minute. maybe a couple of dozen people waiting to get in line early. the two places, the two places right here and it will be open four days a week with the exception of wednesday when doors open at 9:00 a.m. on top of these two offices opening earlier dmv is going to have 14 bay area offices from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
