donald trump and lot of mere putin are meeting in the finnish capital behind closed doors right now before that meeting began the leaders laid out the main issues for discussion and we saw them shake hands. with. their numerous key issues for the presidents to discuss from trade to nuclear disarmament and it all comes against a backdrop of dark warnings by the western media to feel more k.g.b. colonel in the kremlin could be doing some important intelligence gathering on his american counterpart people are are are terrified the best case scenario is a scenario where basically nothing terrible happens. france when the two thousand and eighteen world cup lifting the trophy after a sixty four game tournaments played and eleven russian cities.

after a four two victory over croatia in the final celebrations erupt across france that one places spiraled out of control. this is our team's national coming to you live from the russian capital with me welcome to the program. but amir putin and donald trump have spoken for the first time at their summit in helsinki the russian president said it was time for talks with his an american counterpart while trump stressed the need to now improve relations with moscow.

both of those good presidents from i have continued to have contacts over the last few months we've spoken on the phone and met a couple of times during international events but the time has come to talk about the true relationship and full splits in the world. we have getting along very well for the last year in here not too long and it's getting close to two but i think. i've been saying and i'm sure you've heard. and there's a campaign that is getting along with russia is a good thing that. trump also laid out the major issues on the table in health thinking among them are trade missile programs and nuclear disarmament are trying to has more presidents are in one room and they should be there with only the translators nobody else bugs some journalists and cameramen were allowed to hear

some of the first words that the two leaders were telling each other i can tell you that vladimir putin was actually happy that he could finally meet donald trump face to face he said it's finally great to talk to you in person after so many phone calls that the habs together in the course of this year now besides this donald trump began with congratulating vladimir putin on what he called a great old ball the world cup versatile looking like the right. really. one of the best ever from what everybody knows to be one of the best ever so he just doing so well it's planned that the two presidents are meant to talk head to head without anyone else in the room for about an hour but judging by their previous meetings usually these kind of conversations that take much longer so of course looking at my watch and. and out how much time exactly the leaders are going

to spend together then they're going to be joined by other officials for more extensive talk more importantly what's coming up after this is a joint press conference by mr trump and mr putin and this is really something unprecedented because when the leaders met in hamburg germany and. vietnam these were international summits and the two the didn't have a chance to talk to the media together and they will have that opportunity right now so this will definitely be something special. before the talks have even started putin and trump have already shaken hands twice the first came when they met in hell thank you and the second one happened in front of the media before the start of the talks and it's an issue that's raised eyebrows before.

piers unlikely that the president will confront putin is going to convey to putin that he's weak. from what is now our american perspective to see earned a face to face full scale bilateral meeting with the u.s. president. the president's trip abroad will also include

a meeting with russian president vladimir putin or because we do see these two countries going to hear someone say this is bad idea when he goes for this nato conference who will he represents we represent the united states or we represent moscow to feel more k.g.b. colonel in the kremlin could be doing some important intelligence gathering on his american counterpart people are are are terrified the best case scenario is a scenario where basically nothing terrible for the star. to discuss the meeting and it's possible outcomes we cannot cross live to republican state senator for virginia richard black senator welcome to the program the u.s. president added that even though the two countries have not been getting on particularly well they will end up having an extraordinary relationship is that possible in light of all the issues that are dividing them. i think it's very possible. trump pointed out in his tweets that it was the result of of stupidity and

foolishness on our part that we have the tensions that we do i tend to agree i mean there certainly are always issues between great nations but i'm quite optimistic about the outcome of this particular summit meeting. on sunday trump tweeted that no matter the progress that the summit he will still be slammed by u.s. news outlets how do you think this war between trump and the media me affects the outcome of the summit. president trump has become increasingly powerful these to be the media. he calls out c.n.n. news frequently is fake and refuses to answer questions from them he is he is become he's become quite competent in his role as president and.

he will certainly be chastised in the washington post they've already criticized him very harshly they they're so fearful that he might wind down our involvement in syria that he my come up with some accommodations on ukraine there is an absolute sense of panic within the mainstream media and within a deep state but i think i think all of this is a good thing because the american people have begun to see through this seventeen years of war that we've been fighting and they don't like what they see and i want to change and president trump offers a change well of course this is not the first meeting between trump and putin they met twice last year they can numerous times over the phone why do you think western media is making such a big deal about these talks. the reason is that in these talks

they have a range to meet one on one without having all of the advisors and all of the filter and this is going to be an opportunity for. president putin's to say ok here's how we see it from the russian first started and of course president trump can say ok these are the concerns that we have on the american side but by getting rid of the bureaucrats and being able to just talk honestly. tromp will educate. president putin president putin will undoubtedly provide information to trump that he has never heard from his national security advisor the n.s.a. and the cia in this country. tremendously sansar what goes to the president and it's very important that he hears the other side of of the story. and

of course now all eyes will be on the joint press conference they will be holding after their talks republican state senator for genya richard black thank you so much for joining us today. thank you very much for letting me be with you hillary clinton recently tweeted insinuating that president trump is in cahoots with the russians it seems no matter what happens in helsinki or how hard or putin try to improve diplomatic relations some will never be satisfied as more and gusto if explains. two years they've obsessed over it one dead end worried about this meeting joked about their relationship than old i want to state officials that we in russia are so the words you are us prisons take you now down a little drop ladder be uprooted one old one i'm taking a year me a joint statement saying we're best friends blah blah blah and here we are and they finally meet in the pundit call for any wrongdoing up into a crescendo

a tense moment but trump thinks it's no biggie. putin may be the easiest of the more. i hope we get along well i think we get along well hopefully some day maybe he'll be a friend it could happen but i know i just don't know him very well in the sense we're competitors not a question of friend or enemy he's not my enemy so what's on the menu well for starters no one really knows yet so we've had hints syria ukraine meddling but nothing concrete which is no surprise anything these two say especially about each other invariably gets strong out and turned upside down and inside out. he's a very bright talented. reaffirming their bromance mutual admiration

society if he is really very much of a leader he's been a leader far more than our president has been a little too mentally unstable aggressive men with nuclear buttons it's a disgrace it's gotten so bad that even common courtesy is frowned upon or reviled at this point of putin's sneezed trump would be crucified for merely saying bless you thing is trumps trump he's easy with words russia is not strong economically and we could do a lot of different things to really do numbers on them if we wanted to know what. trumps trump words for him more sound than meaning putin know much more careful politician. was able to succeed in business and that means he's a clever man commanded. during the election campaign sometimes i thought he was

exaggerating his truth but it turned out he was right. although putin did one side with trump remember the rumors spread about trump the one about prostitutes and a certain hotel room in moscow. trump is a man who for many years has organized beauty pageants he socialized with the most beautiful women in the world i can hardly imagine he rushed to the hotels to meet some young russian women low social responsibility sweet talk aside russia and the us in syria have almost come to open war relations a dismal getting worse but not all is lost crimea is back in the headlines trump has called for russia to come back to the g. seven regardless trump's a businessman he likes the deal likes the trade so we can you do me

a favor we can get out of syria i think and probably have a good relationship with them yeah it isn't going to be easy but at least they're talking to nuclear superpowers which could destroy the world thrice over not behaving like children everyone's better off when they talk unless you're a pundit or a hater they're in meltdown mode calling this a loss for the us calling trump a russian agent but hey they've been outed for years all that's left really is their wait and see what happens only time will tell. just to remind you bottom here putin and donald trump are holding talks behind closed doors right now they're expected to address the media in around forty minutes time although that may be delayed given that the beginning of the summit was delayed but we'll have it here live for you on our to international.

not to the climax of the two thousand and eighteen world cup where france became champions on sunday evening in moscow celebrations carried on well into the night and will continue on monday when the winning side meet with their fans and paris from our special studio in the center of the russian capital here all the highlights from the final day of the tournament. please. please. please. try. and it's a bittersweet hello and welcome once again from our sky line if you win the hearts of moscow you're looking at the kremlin red square behind us people wandering around the day after the world cup final here in moscow i'm you don't know me

this is new harvey good to have you with us. pleasure to be broadcasting with you once again you need to determine just a few the key points from yesterday's final of course it was the thrill of france to celebrate saying they won the trophy for the second time in twenty is courtesy of a full to victory of a moscow's luzhniki stadium lots of emotions on display. it's

been a quite epic month of football so many terrific games just one nil nil on the last game game six before the world cup final between france on creation. lived up to expectations i think it's safe to say me hardly a little bit of everything in there had a dramatic vala decision we had an own goal we had a penalty six strikes in total boating the net quite a face the football enjoy the her . thank. you her

thank you who. the oh what the who . who who who who.

who who was. twenty three croatian players as the coaching staff little be very very disappointed because. at the time the best team was losing and was losing because of. in my opinion and least. the concept of the not seeing is not the penalty because there can be different opinions are wrong i'm saying that the concept of the view is a bald important mistakes of the referee and this was not one of these cases so really really does a point to do that in the second off upon what we would expect and then friends scored this overall in the fourth and just. a mistake of that i don't even call a mistake i call extra confidence because of the four one in the game over but crew

is used to playing until the end of the great pride they were fantastic and they deserve all all the credit for what they did but. in football the realities. and france's little champion twenty years of the greatest bus driver on the planet telling us he didn't like the decision was controversial he just michael longside me yesterday he was raging at what he saw as a huge mistake that had a big say in the outcome of the game but he created drama didn't it and make a very exciting final year was that v are going to work out for creature of france it went away in france they got that penalty too wanted half time france just went to tie and after that their fans were delighted let's take a look at just some of the images of what we saw over the last number of days. it would.

i have. i have. to have. yeah after the victory came the celebrations i mean we can imagine what it's like to be in a country where everyone celebrating when the welcome being english proper hell never know the feeling but imagine what it was like for the french but for some people that's twice in a long time they've had exhilarating sensation and it really is a shot of adrenaline just have a look at what the scenes were like on the streets of the french capital after the

final whistle off respondent was amongst the solid youths. who might have raised as he's been confronted fronts and now the world cup champions i've seen anything this is an amazing opportunity to experience something of a country loss experience twenty years ago when fronts was actually the east nations and when they won the world cup many people believed that they could win this championship going in very very strongly about that they cheated him and of course they've done it every stage of the way the fans have been out in the streets and now they've been rewarded with this incredible moment this moment where they know that they are now the world cup champions and this weekend is just the icing on the cake the but still day the national celebration here in france and now this sunday the fifteenth and even the biggest celebration here in france as i have

learned. here pretty year for a scenes they continued to write through the night in a paris bout was falling games it turned into something not quite a little bit argue here later and then i take a look. was. was . was. to eat what i. hear most remain very festive throughout the final and then celebrations that followed even top officials were involved in the french team's celebrations

gosh that you can see there on this amazing wave of emotion at this point this was to the right after the medal ceremony. was that it was ok that one year was it was there any something new it was there was no it was there was ok in english please oh. sorry to. hear it was you know it wasn't that i didn't i was you know did i do that it was it was didn't i do there was a deluge there heading the french monetary during it's fair game media conferences and it wasn't just inside the weather to change a little bit under storm for

a little while hitting moscow just right after the final whistle in fact it didn't seem to bother the founds who attended the final though one little bit especially the winning team it was one last chance the policy the celebration lasted all night and it was particularly. enjoyable in the streets now be made famous by this world cup it's called nicole scar's been nicknamed the streets of lights and it's been. a real hot spot for fans throughout this competition up to twenty years removed to start small and. sixty years old and to even in a mood to do is to just. to say yes. very proud to be cross in most people i was we didn't have a lock to date we've had a lot of read before matches and we fall for florrie fierce maybe when in the

finals it was very nice to meet you and we would come back as soon as possible this is one of the things that when you look back through history i know i do anyway when i think of one thousand nine hundred six i think mara donna italian ninety world cup ninety four that's how i remember the past it's so good that people here locals russians are able to think russia twenty eight d. i grew up during this time i grew up on a world cup finals in my country and we got to the quarterfinals as well lots of memories on and off the field here one really pleased about as you mentioned some of the great plays and football and obviously they are fundamental to the game but i think more than ever before because we're looking strong we've been able to bring a real feel of the atmosphere and of the fans coming together from around the world more than just the football going beyond the game and i was saying yesterday again it's all about the founds you take them away you've got empty stadiums and

a few guys kicking a ball around was fun as they were without the phones it is not our thing and i think is very important we focus on the fans and and they have been tremendous and this should be how old will cook should be focused now i think the fans alongside the same level as the plays the instrument and threw him into that while the world cup here in russia has been recognized as a huge success but not just for the for. about being played although the football was pretty incredible but for the organization of the event there have been worries going into it to some foreign press did not materialize this is what sports officials pundits have been said. it's a fantastic world. market it. excellent world excellent. for. you with pretty low. key life which i think in the boy's shoulder everything is so nice and the social

property is secure to say that people are friendly. you might want to. come all the stories we've seen almost all the strong teams make every effort win their match well both feed and fitted to be we have been almost from the same level with the world cup if you are going to but i'm stupid to be surprised that one of the biggest achievements is that even customers will be struggling to smile. smile anywhere in the world they say welcome to the group effort that's what it's been spectacular people are very friendly fashion you organization to be very good been left surprised but i'm very happy with how everything is going. as so many big names sharing their thoughts their experiences of world cup twenty eight being with us here in russia thank you for the privilege we've really enjoyed having you for the past month one month and one day auction here in russia has been

a real pleasure i just want to show you something though because there's a carousel that's been willing around throughout this will cup i kept looking down at it and thinking before it ends i want to go for a ride. and it stops and that kind of sums it all up you know this this ride that we've been on the football and emotion has come to an end some time. but you know it's not too long to wait now just four more years they'll be qualifying in the company is send it all saw it up again who knows where it will be close to the full by saying with.

if you're a political news junkie then you're probably experiencing a serious overdose consider the recent nato meeting trump's visit to the u.k. so called russia gate and the trump putin summit we discussed in all your i crossed . a lot.
