make sure that the world that we're now joined by you get moss in london and barbara vessel in brussels barbara i'm going to start with you because the nato summit was just over the last couple of days and the similar situation where trump made some comments and them pulled back on them what do you make of his comments that he just made at the presser today about nato. it's pretty much the same that he. did during the two days at nato only that he still doesn't seem to have understood that nato is not a main cash box where the member countries put money in but we're talking about money that each individual country uses and spends for their own military. kid keeps on was the sort of repeat misrepresentation and after leaving nato leaders completely flux and totally sort of out of their understand range an area of understanding because they did know where they were at was the same. and we can only say that this is the course he has he is steering however in the back here because i'm in the center of london that the main demonstration against the people are really gearing up and cheering the speak

cnn's barbara starr is in brussels. barbara, how concerned are u.s. allies on the eve of the summit about the president's commitment to nato? >> reporter: good evening, jake. well here at nato headquarters in brussels, there is growing anxiety about what will happen tomorrow when president trump sits down with his fellow heads of state. president donald trump still bitterly complaining about the alliance that's provided much of u.s. and european security for nearly 70 years. >> we spend at least 70% for nato and, frankly, it helps them a lot more than it helps us. >> reporter: it's all raising the question of president trump really is prepared to up-end the global world order that's had the support of generations of u.s. presidents. and has supported u.s. forces across countless battlefields. >> europe was first to respond on the large-scale when the u.s. was attacked and called for solidarity after 9/11. european soldiers have been fighting shoulder to shoulder with american soldiers in afghanistan. >> reporter: today's rhetoric mimics trump's 2016 c

anything in brussels and they could do that they was very quick to replace davis davis dominic roberts how much of a setback is this for the prime minister and could there be more resignations as barbara indicated people in brussels fear. it is a huge setback and i think it's really the fallout from tourism is biggest mistake which she made a while ago when she triggered article fifty before really setting out any direction on brics it so now we've got this huge time pressure and people will be thinking long and hard whether it's a good idea to replace the reason may to replace effectively the whole leadership of the country just before we have a crucial summit coming up in brussels in october and just before article fifty runs out in march before britain really is set to leave the e.u. there is intense speculation we haven't heard anything from boris johnson he has been challenge by fellow m.p.'s to come forward and throw his head in the ring but nothing as happened also swell a brave woman who's a junior. with david davies speculation that she might resign i think more resignations can easily follow today or in the next days right big mass in london barbara in brussels thank you ver

joining us live from brussels, barbara starr. what is president trump getting at when he calls germany a captive of russia? any truth in it? >> reporter: well, his contention is that this oil and gas deal germany has with russians for energy supplies is making them beholden to the russian government at a time when the u.s. has tens of thousands of troops in europe and germany as well and the u.s. is paying a considerable amount for european defense issues. but the germans will tell you this is a deal that's been in the works for some time, that it is a business deal, that it has nothing to do with security issues. so you have this dilemma, this contradiction, you have a very verbally upset president of the united states at nato. he wants countries right now to fulfill this decades long promise they made that by 2024 they will spend 2% of the economy on defense spending. many nato members are not up to that level yet. the u.s. is above it. he wants to see it done immediately. whether he can do that through his own sheer force of w

barbara bizzle is in brussels barbara the e.u. it doesn't seem very impressed how our european countries basically going to deal with the chaos unfolding right now in the u k. they will simply have to buy their time because the there is no value in negotiating now and continuing even with technical talks as long as this power struggle in britain is not resolved and to make something quite clear nobody is crying any cheer about boris johnson leaving office he was either a laughingstock in among his colleagues in the foreign ministries or he was seen as somebody who didn't take his office seriously he had been the most gaffe prone and foreign minister in britain since time immemorial and he has somehow insulted managed to insult people left and right so boris leaving will sort of. result in a sigh of relief among many people however they know that if he goes he might even make more trouble behind the scene and derail the brics a process totally and that is really would is feared in brussels that now things could come to a complete h

barbara. ok in brussels of course everybody is really concerned because the e.u. also fears of heartbreaks and but they are already preparing for this because they have seen for a while things are not going well and there is no certainty when the queues in london will sort itself out in time in order to get an agreement in the fall and if necessary to december time is running out time is running out as well barrie get you think that there's lots of worries in the u.k. as well. i think there are lots of worries the country is really divided we are seeing so we've seen also demonstrations pro european demonstrations we've seen how great city is we're really fearing that that vision of office of a hog brecht's it is not going to happen so the there people are really at both ends of the spectrum very very concerned and and it's just a huge uncertainty at the moment in the u.k. huge uncertainty doobies very good mass reporting from london and bob are they still in brussels thank you both for your reporting. all right i want to bring you up to date now with our other le

johnson will put his head in the ring so we come back to that in just a moment let me go and barbara in brussels bob are there must be alarm in brussels with this turmoil in prime minister tourism is government. yes of course even though they don't talk about a tear and. utter any sentences that show alarm they say we're here to negotiate was the government and london whatever whoever and whichever government we see we will sit down and talk to them but of course it means for the negotiators in brussels that everything is totally thrown back to zero that everything is completely open again when on friday there was a vague idea that one might be on the pulse to a softer breck's it and might feel in the past to now really start substantial talks about details and the hundreds and thousands of details that need to be figured out before in agreement can be sketched out now as there is political turmoil in london everybody here understands that the british government simply isn't at that point and so nothing to be done here in brussels except for everybody sitting down again and folding their hands a

and for more let's bring in data is very on barbara bezel who has the latest from brussels and you know as we just heard there barbara we are nine months away from the brights the deadline now we have british prime minister theresa may finally agreeing on a policy line with her cabinet and two days later her brags that minister resigns what does brussels make of all of this. yele skeptics already fear it's friday night that the checkers piece might be just a momentary thing and might not really stand up under the under the pressure of the bricks and tears in her cabinet and particularly in her party who had been on the sleaze silence throughout this whole checkers meeting and immediately afterwards so one of the main breaks to choose michael gove he sort of the head to reason he's back so she was probably believing that she could get the rest of the party now david davis has thrown all the sort of totally open again for brussels means that still nothing can happen until the british government had sorted itself out and that sort of reiterate what people have been saying here negotiators

barbara starr sat down this morning in brussels with the secretary-general. >> reporter: it was very interesting because it came after that breakfast meeting with the president where president trump bitterly complained to the secretary-general about defense spending by nato member companies, about germany, putting the secretary-general right in his crosshairs in front of a global audience. just about an hour or two later, i sat down with him here at nato and asked him how he is attempting to deal with the differences now so stark between nato member countries? here's what he said. >> secretary-general, i'm of course most concerned about the differences on defense spending. but that's very much what messaging and language, because when it comes to the substance, we all agree that we have to do more. and therefore, we try -- i try to distinguish between what is different language, different messaging, and what is disagreement on the core issues. all allies and canada agree we need to invest more. >> reporter: messaging and language used. the secretary-general right there is signaling t
