3:02 am
the u.s. president had a keenly watched meeting with his chinese counterpart at the summit but neither a go a news conference afterwards the russian president did talk to reporters though to share his thoughts on the gathering and when our series. of reports. one of the top reasons if not the top one why this g twenty summit was meant to be a real attention grabber was the planned one on one between the man whose limo is parked right there that is the russian president vladimir putin and his american counterpart donald trump however just one day before the summit began the american president really put all of us in breaking news mode by tweeting out right when he was on the plane to argentina i won't meet with putin over ukraine the journalists were left guessing whether at least they'll shake hands or maybe have

a little chat on the sidelines and finally on saturday lattimer putin spokesperson confirmed that this quick chat happened and everyone was hoping to ask president trump about it at his press event however the american leader canceled that one as well he said it was because the sudden passing of ex-president george h.w. bush but then finally vladimir putin found the time to talk to the press and obviously the first question that was asked was about his relations with mr trump and that quick conversation that actually happens lattimer putin began by saying that he doesn't think mr trump is afraid of contacts with them and here's what else he said . here's the support for the festival it was a u.s. initiative because then we council meeting in paris because we didn't want to interfere in the shenzhou for one commemorations so we decided to meet and going to
3:04 am
serious but then the provocation in the black sea took place this is us decided not to have to meet soon we still have the chance to chat with president trump on this issue we expressed our positions and remain committed to the islets no we think of the incident it's a shame that we are unable to have this this meeting. but i hope it will take place sooner or later when the u.s. is ready for it a like this quick exchange between mr trump and mr putin we know that there were full proper meetings between the german chancellor and the russian president and also the day before mr putin met the french president emmanuel macron and the number one focus of these talks was also the clerk's troy straight incident we heard from sources that the russian delegation that mr putin grabbed a piece of paper and a pen and physically draw them out of what was going on on the ground to explain
3:05 am
russia's take on this and at the press conference there were also questions about this of course for mr putin mr putin said that the reaction of western leaders to russian position was very calm and he said that he tried to convene in detail a full timeline of events that happened there and besides that he brought forth some evidence which included some notes from the ukrainian vessels logbooks so this was also something that a lot of our putin brought with him to argentina the russian president continued by talking about the state of martial law that was imposed by the ukrainian president petro poroshenko has a result of this incident and the kurds straight in parts of ukraine here's what he said. i am concerned about some of the things nobody imposed martial law in ukraine when there were big events going on and then before the elections think go ahead and do it why to cattell civil liberties in this connectivity what is
3:06 am
worse is the introduced martial law in just ten provinces where the current president does not have much support city craning government is dividing the country at this media event we weren't supposed to hear any questions in other languages however at one point. a journalist from the u.k. took the microphone and asked something in english vladimir putin chose not to wait for the translation he said it's absolutely fine the question was about the recent statements by a senior official in the u.k. military he said that right now russia poses a greater threat to his country than that of state to this russian president replied that he believes at this point moscow is the number one opponent of terrorists on this planet mr putin said that by doing this british officials are only trying to put up a show back home and are aiming to score political points. for trying to have all
3:07 am
the council trump was not the only anticipated meeting him going elsewhere it has been an important breakthrough between the u.s. and chinese leaders of the two countries trade row they agreed to a temporary freeze on tariff increases leaving them a ten percent instead of raising them to the twenty five percent as was expected but the freeze expires after ninety days if both parties are unable to reach a further agreement. now though it was mostly serious business of the summit there were a couple of lighter moments and even a few hiccups along the way. everything was scheduled down to the last minute but when we got direction now we understood the president was already getting into his car.
3:08 am
live. elin little. elin palin. illegal. now we've been sounding out experts throughout the week on the g twenty former republican congressman michael patrick flanagan give us his view on how it reflected the current relationship between the russian and u.s.
3:09 am
leaders. mr putin doesn't seem to be isolated at the summit at all but he seems to be doing a good job on behalf of russia and taking in taking on the issues of the day i don't i don't really see his isolation happening so if that was the plan it failed but these summits are not designed to come to conclusions at least as far as i understand and they're designed to give the world leaders a chance to air this confusion in misconception with each other and to make their point decisions are made by pure accuracies and larger organizations later afterward i'm sure that they have discussions regularly as there are various as there are individual i should say foreign ministries and state department permit them ask them and encourage them to do it and i think mr putin's being very straightforward about what was happening in in the black sea and with ukraine in his view of it whether we agree with it or not is helpful to the discussion and i think mr trump was was happy for that i can imagine he would have been whenever
3:10 am

vessels i consciously ignored their commands to stop on our boat we had small arms and a machine gun with ammunition i was aware that the action of the ukrainian vessels in the coast straits provoker to i was following my orders to move our ships from the port or for this to mario western countries were quick to express serious concern over what happened both russia and ukraine called for an emergency session of the un security council russia's representative though seem to make little headway with others around the table here's how it unfolded. what we witnessed this weekend is yet another reckless russian escalation it follows on from russia's illegal acts ation of crimea in two thousand and fourteen grains because the ukrainian side violated our border in a place which even before twenty fourteen was russian territory. russia must respect the full implementation of the minsk agreement you're not an additional i hope that you read the mid-scale greenman to know perfectly there's not a single word about crimea russia wants to contacts the sea. at least and now it's
3:15 am
surprisingly turns out that we occupy the azoff sea is wealthy this is something new if you me for i'd like to assure you create an affair with solidarity united states will continue to stand with the people of ukraine against the russian aggression. so this could be perceived as culp braun's for ukraine to carry out further provocations the russian deputy u.n. envoy who you saw there told us he believes the west response will only encourage more reckless action by ukraine. i discovered that they were not very eager to discuss these countries situationally immediately changed to all the alleged an accession of crimea by my country which were of course of course that anite and i specifically mentioned that crimea was not topical security council agenda. i fear that after the western countries that have particular influence on the ukraine
3:16 am
really displayed such an edge its units of the ukrainian side might feel a little bit and bold and to engage in further provocations of these type because they haven't heard they didn't hear during the meeting any approaches from from western side that they did something wrong. you're watching i'll see international coming up chaos in paris this weekend as fuel tax protests trike again scores of people were injured in the hundreds arrested well let's take the one that when we come back.
3:17 am
we should start again to discuss. chancellor merkel runs who serve we have built up a lot of choose between germany and europe and russia. to destroy a creature this is quite easy and very forced. to improve. all
3:18 am
over again central paris was brought to a standstill on saturday by the so-called yellow vest movement against soaring fuel prices it was the most violent of three successive weekends of unrest and riot police were out in force more than one hundred people were injured including our correspondent peter all about he was had by rubber bullets here's what he witnessed throughout the day. these demonstrators have been very clear in what they've wanted to say they want to say that fuel prices are getting too high and they want to say they're unhappy with the current government headed up by a minute. actually is remove into this we're seeing riots is riot police tear gas everything you can possibly imagine as they try and take away that one person who fell to the floor.
3:19 am
yes. you have a central new killer of police in full riot gear fully equipped we're actually seeing tear gas trying over our heads right now i'm going to be moving out of the way as i'm talking to you that's really not safe for me to be stood there doing that it's also not to just explain what was happening the place that you can see located just over there which was exactly one hundred eighty degrees from where i was facing day just fired several rounds dangerously close over my head right then that's something i've certainly never seen by any riot suppression force used in europe. there have been numerous incidents of people being hit with rubber
3:20 am
bullets our colleague legally shares off the hospital i was hit me on kill with will myself thankfully my boot bearing most of the brunt of that those demonstrate is that i spoke to they say they aren't going anywhere humanity should be put first not money it's not impossible you know you come to these protests because you don't have enough money to survive til the end of the month. we already work in the minimal tariffs for social insurance and i don't understand what will the next apply to be sure we can do the best we can to provide good conditions for patients i don't know for sure who's to blame for escalating the situation the police or the yellow vests but they are fully on the side of protesters as long as the peaceful we are being taxed from all sides we work we study we raise our children now we are overtaxed so stop moving the problem aside we're seeing more room or problem spark up around here is a fire herod set up as a blockade across the street of one of the streets off of
3:21 am
a new five and this isn't the certainly isn't going anywhere anytime soon and one of the big issues that i am seeing from this whole situation in paris is that it's not just one new killers there isn't just one group that the police are trying to contain the truth. was. that a. number of people incredibly upset particularly with the french media they thought we were from one of the french broadcasters they were insisting that we stop broadcasting once we told them that we weren't well now we've been allowed to again speaking to a large amount of the police that have been taking part in this operation in forest on saturday if you surprised how many were willing to say off camera that they were
3:22 am
actually supports of those that were demonstrating against lower fuel costs however that certainly wasn't represented in some of the the violent scenes that we've seen from say violence from place towards demonstrators also from demonstrators towards police peter all of that while despite having to deal with the worst riots in more than a decade the head of a french police union told us that broad sympathy for the protest movement among law enforcement personnel. but. in fact most of my colleagues support the yellow vets movement as we are affected a lot by the fuel price rise too but we can't live there so it will be worthless either because it costs too much because we have to arrest our neighbors our colleagues on the ground have to follow the orders of those who are not on the ground the french president told reporters at the g twenty that all those responsible for the violence will be identified and held to account so to see pursues will be a perry what happened in paris today has nothing to do with peaceful demonstrations
3:23 am
of legitimate discontent the organizers of this violence don't want any change they want chaos they will go identified they will be held responsible for their actions and they will be taken to court i will always respect those who disagree and i will always listen to any dissent but i will never accept violence and i'm pretty sure that mccoy is going to lose the european the election which is coming in next next year and in fact is as he has already lost them you know it tries to hear as somebody who is promises and you know the ones you change of policy and i think this is very dangerous it only shows the last time i'll read. you a concern of the french nation. donald trump's patience has long worn thin with america's main news providers so this week he floated the idea of setting up his own state run alternative he got it out of takes
3:24 am
a look at how if it ever makes it to where t.v. might measure up against the established networks. it's been a long brutal and tiresome fight fake fake discussing. how. i am not going to give you a question you are fake the level of dishonesty is out of control the two go mets and clashed and found themselves in a stalemate now trump appears to be opting for a new approach if you can't beat them join them throughout the world c.n.n. has a powerful voice portraying the united states in an unfair and false way something has to be done including the possibility of the united states starting our own worldwide network to show the world the way we really are great. and i wonder what it will look like.
3:25 am
oh and thank you for joining c.n.n. i'm your host for today anderson blooper and our top story a huge announcement from the white house nato is obsolete some powerful words from the president that the united states indeed has been the biggest loser in this decrepit organization to quote president bad and well actually now we do have some breaking information just in fact donald trump has just announced that nato is very much relevant again now they do fighters i said it was obsolete. it's no longer ups a leap now just to clarify things this is most definitely not a u. turn on behalf of mr president but rather a direct result of his artwork and we have reports that otherwise is fake news speaking of which c.n.n. is proud to be recognized as the only fake free t.v.
3:26 am
network and like these other stations especially the. well on the political front donald trump has revealed that there is no reason to believe that russia meddled in the twenty sixteen election i have president putin he just said it's not russian i will say this i don't see any reason why it would be getting a confirmation from vladimir putin himself never settling for this anonymous source is rubbish just as we don't as well well. now actually we do have an update on this story have a listen and a key sentence in my remarks i said the word word instead of what. the sentence should have been i don't see any reason why i wouldn't or why it would be russian. you know what this is oddly an update though obviously would instead of wouldn't i mean yeah the complete opposite of each other but that's just being
3:27 am
unpredictable the great thing about our president and now finally that we have that sorted out to domestic affairs and our contributing show cooking with friends the type of deterrent being used is close to the pepper spray it's literally water tap or with a small amount of alcohol for evaporation purposes it's natural you could actually put it on your nachos and eat it while nachos with tear gas topping is actually the only way we have nachos here at c.n.n. so some spicy peppery nachos with a water canon shower to wash away the. it is delicious try it if you haven't so that was it our morning kids show this is c.n.n. . and that's the weekly for this hour and next after a decade of living in fear of me the nigerian vigilantes using their hunting skills to track and take down a horrible terrorist. when
3:28 am
a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murder i would prefer and it be newlin the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying there's just no really hasn't been that we're even many of the times families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victims' families what that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way.
3:29 am
i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter to us is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each dish. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be all for rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trees per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember is one. one doesn't show you know for two minutes and one can only be. stuck on the question of. when the when this could you need to be a part of a new thing is when one how did you quit the masses and you know what i will be
3:30 am
battling to amend. to do the course you're going to deploy to take over. you do you have. the name. of this woman i. need to course not only. don't want to talk about what is going to become difficult no one.
