g. twenty. we saw president putin and president xi jinping drinking vodka at the in moscow just before the g. twenty summit is is that close relationship closer relationship between moscow and beijing a symptom of the end of globalization i don't think it's a symptom of the end of globalization by the way maybe is a. symptom or a recognition that the u.s. . primordial role as leader of the system is no longer the case. for some time we've been moving to a more collective leadership for the global economy and what we've seen with president trump in place now is is that the move towards that has accelerated and so the confidence in the us administration and the us president as reflected in various recent global polls has suffered dramatically and i think we're going to be looking at more leadership from china and potentially from from parts of europe from from chancellor merkel from mccraw in france and from justin trudeau and. you think it's the beginning of the end of the i.m.f. and world bank i

g. twenty summit. discussing some of it now with political commentator and. she joins us from place to say you had l. all eyes on. trump what are your expectations for that meeting. well let's hope actually something that will come out of it but i think a word of caution. present actually comes as. sort of facing hostile atmosphere of hostile atmosphere back home in america hostile atmosphere opposite from britain most of the european union leaders. are quite hostile to him we have seen thawing of relations with the french president extending an invitation to him for busfield day but in germany he will need to appear to be tough so he probably will make some lip service tough talk against russia. but i think that's probably he will have to do that for a new domestic audience and to gain some brownie points in europe in general but i think probably deep in his heart he was looking forward to that meeting with the first meeting and he admired president putin admired to him by probably he would say also that it was under all. this variation with the russian rela

g. twenty on the president's agenda is the future of u.s. trade policy in europe in dealing with other major economic partners the president's meeting with putin on friday will likely take precedence over other issues syria ukraine north korea and nato are all on the docket as putin in front sit down for the first time meeting as heads of state while speaking in poland today the president mentioned russia just once calling for greater cooperation we must adapt our alliance to compete effectively in new ways and on all new battlefields we urge russia to cease its destabilizing activities in ukraine and elsewhere and its support for hostile regimes including syria and iran and to instead joined a community of responsible nations in our fight against common enemies and in defense of civilization itself the president was a crowd pleaser today making assurances to nato allies specifically mentioning article five of the nato treaty guaranteeing mutual protection the united states has demonstrated not merely with words but with its actions that we

g. twenty of the president's meeting tomorrow. we go to our political panel the saving president the eagle forum. in new york city. gentlemen nice to have you with us go to the conservative here give me the best possible outcome for this meeting for donald trump after the media all day long is that basically coaching the president on what he's got to do or it's not a good meeting i want your thoughts. well you know one thing is i was just chuckling listening to the show and you know even the protesters more protesters are coming to this event because a trump they say i mean there's so much attraction look i think what trump needs with the putin meeting is a couple things number one he needs to come off as a serious leader i think he will i think putin is a you know a serious man himself so they'll be a sort of they look and feel like leaders of two major powers and i think that to be good i think trump needs to come away actually with a relationship with more confidence because frankly the americans need to work with putin against

g. twenty in burke. meeting has been capturing the imaginations of many on social media some drew part between their talks and scenes from the political t.v. series high some cards the russian president appeared to strike a facial expression similar to the fictional kremlin boss better off body language expert darren stanton broke down for us want all the gesturing means. but there was an interesting interaction between president putin and trump. around the table and again they shake hands but this time we noticed president trump sort of pats president putin on the under the arm which was quite mild gesture but again his appraisal is a power gesture to say that you know we're here but i'm still the powerful man you know i'm still the head on chair so to speak so i think you know although i think the two men have got mutual respect for each other. you know i think this this little call leakage these leakage gestures that i see between the two men especially from president trump that he still wants to be s

g. twenty summit with the first face to face diplomatic meeting lasting for over two hours. to listen said they had a very robust exchange. there was so much to talk about all these issues. just about everything got touched on to one degree or another and i think there was just such a level of engagement and exchange neither one of them wanted to stop cheryl times i had to remind the president of people sticking their heads in the door and i think maybe this is the first lady at one point to see if she could get us out of there and i didn't work either. and the meeting brought about a potential breakthrough for the syria conflict too as the leaders agreed to establish a cease fire in the country. it was following the historic told us mr trump and mr putin at the g twenty summit and hamburg the two leaders finally met and talked about three times longer than both administrations expected and now straight after the meeting was over all the journalists here were hungry for the details and we got them from the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov he was the first one to announ

g. twenty s. work and we want to keep the trade flows open merkel made those comments next to singapore's prime minister just a day ahead of the summit emphasizing their strong commitment to trade they also touched upon security issues which is another topic we can expect to hear about especially where nato is concerned during his trip to poland claimed billions of dollars have cordin to the organization since he called on all members to pay their fair share but he also issued a warning what we've inherited from our and. has never existed to this extent before and if we fail to preserve it it will never ever exist again so we fail. his remarks it didn't come as a surprise since he said before that he'd pull the u.s. out of nato if other members didn't pay up what might surprise some leaders though as the so-called welcome to help protests going on protesters descended into hamburg to bring attention to climate change just a month after the u.s. announced its exit from the paris agreement it's yet
