i was live in finland, 22 hours of sunlight this time of year. a beautiful spectacular morning for the summit. four hours from now, the president -- the pres. and first lady will arrive in the wonderful yellow building behind me the site of today's meeting, donald trump and his russian counterpart will touch a range of subjects from nuclear arms control to syria, we are breaking that down early this morning. he is also trying to downplay expectation. >> let's have a meeting, i do believe in meetings, having a meeting with chairman kim was a good thing. having meetings with the president of china was a very good thing. so having meetings with russia, china, north korea, i believe in it, nothing bad will come out of it and some good will come out of it. >> reporter: you will have to stick with us, live pictures of the president for the first time. taking over this trip the election meddling issue, robert mueller's indictment of 12 russian intelligence officers last week and the growing outcry on capitol hill, many democrats wondering how the presid

a very diplomatic host, the president of finland. secretary burns, what do you think and how do you read what happened here today? and you cannot avoid the fireworks at that press conference. >> yeah, christiane, it's nice to be with you. i think that press conference was the single most embarrassing performance by an american president on the world stage that i've ever seen, anyway. to stand alongside a foreign adversary and rival and basically give him a pass as he denied interference in our elections, for which we have him dead to rights. to stand alongside him and essentially throw your own law enforcement and intelligence community under the bus, to stand alongside him while he argued that he should be the fireman in a place like syria, where, in fact, he's been one of the principle arsonists responsible for large parts of that catastrophe. i think that's all pretty appalling. >> so you just heard the president of finland saying he hosted this because so many people believed there was a need, a necessity, to try again to reset r

but of course this is not the same finland. finland used to be a country that had to declare itself nextal in order to survive to a big neighbor, russia, or soviet union, rather. this is long overdue to believe that finland is the same neutral country. i can imagine that mr. putin agreed to have the summit in helsinki because he definitely non-natocome to a country. it is true finland is a non-nato -- vehemently objected to any kind of forced neutrality. as an eu member state, i would say it proud eu member state, it it is of course politically aligned with the e.u. and has been extremely close cooperation with nato. amy: even a lot of the corporate networks are based there today, massive number of journalists in helsinki, in the u.s. there is very little coverage of the thousands of people in the streets and in the main belltower that is "warm our hearts, not the planet." message of the protesters. you are a member of the green party. what you are specifically calling for now a few years after, well, a year after president tru

these are some live pictures of protesters in finland right now. going to have moren a live report. >>> right now, here at home, a ove look outside. we start work week on a monday. sun is shining. it is going to be a hot day out the today. temperatures will be climbing back in the90s. make sure you're hydrated. >> you can see the sun doing a maniacal laugh. >> it is what we get in july. >> our normal high is 89 this tile of year. to you know it's going to be humid, >> you know who loves humidity? bugs. so buggy out. >> we're not going outside for the live shots anymore. >> don't say it. >> now, we're going to go. we had to on the weather check. just lather up mosquito spray or bug spray because it was so bad out there. 're inside right now. maybe if you're headed outside, you want to get the bug spra out. it is a beautiful morning. it's not going to be that bad a day. temperatures in the mid-70wes. ill continue to take those temperatures to near 90 by 11:00. this afternoon, mid-90s. the story today will be heat and humidity. we're goi the time thos

it's warm to people in finland. about 82.4 degrees fahrenheit.hington, that's pretty mild. but they were trying to say perhaps she is wearing a long jacket even thought it's warm to them in finland. they will find a headline about almost anything the first lady does. but we have more important issues than fashion. in 2014 russian troops invaded crimea. they seized that region of the ukraine. it has continued to out -- outrage many around the world. joining us, fox news contributor retired lieutenant colonel james reese. we heard from the u.s. ambassador to return, jon huntsman. he says it's highly unlikely the president will reference the annexation of crimea. but this president is an unpredictable negotiator. how important is crimea in these talks? >> it's not as important as i think people think it should be. i believe what the ambassador said. president trump believes this happened the last administration. he complains by the a lot. i would like to see him let that go. but i don't think, to be candid with you, i don't think there is anything w

donald trump and the russian leader vladimir putin will hold a much anticipated one on one meeting in finland the health summit is their first official standalone meeting no formal agenda has been set and some of the talks will be held with no staff around so what could be up for discussion while the nuclear capabilities the largest in the world will be one of the main areas to watch for they have a deal in place to reduce the size of their arsenal but it ended twenty twenty one and any progress in extending that agreement will be seen as a good sign. then there's syria they back opposing sides but both want to see progress towards a political solution to end the conflict trump is likely to bring up israel's concerns about a rainy and forces in the country also russia's annexation of crimea could be up for discussion putin will likely be pushing for an easing of u.s. sanctions over this but the topic dominating most u.s. headlines is allegations of russian meddling in the twenty sixteen presidential election troops national security advisor john bolton has hinted that this could be on the tab

we're live in helsinki, finland. the summit will take place behind us in the building which is the presidential palace. president trump attended a working breakfast with the finland president. mr. trump expects the meeting to be just fine. >> meanwhile, the former presidential candidate hillary clinton posted a tweet herself writing, great world cup. question for president trump as he meets putin. do you know which team you play for? >> so, mr. trump, do you think you can charm putin? here is the look at trying to win over the russian leader. president trump is the fourth u.s. president to hold a summit with vladimir putin. >> putin's fine. he's fine. we're all fine. we're people. will i be prepared? >> so as president trump prepares or doesn't to meet the russian leader, he should remember others have been there before him with very mixed success. presidents clinton and bush and obama all tried kicking things off with flattery. >> deeply committed to his country. >> capable of doing it. >> extraordinary work that yo

this wasn't finland's first fight with russia. finland was part of the russian empire until 1917. more recently the fins and russians at times have a tepid relationship. the government says russia was behind a 2013 cyberattack on the foreign ministry. local polls show that most finnish people dislike president putin and most dislike president donald trump too. only 2% say putin makes the world a safer place. only 4% say trump makes the world a safer place. today in helsinki, some protesters marched along the cobblestone streets carrying signs and chanting. >> i think they should work for a better world because they are guys who have power to change things, and i wish everybody -- [inaudible] -- but i'm afraid these guys aren't doing it. >> but the protest was relatively small, nothing like the protests in the u.k. and most people who talked with us were not fazed by the meeting at all. >> i don't know what they are talking about. can you tell me what they are talking about? >> why did the president of russia and the president of the united states choose to meet in helsinki, finlan

the meeting in finland is a headlining event. russian military action in crimea, russia meddling in the 2016 election and joinltd military proliferation. the u.s. ambassador to russia says this is a meeting that absolutely needs to happen. >> you have to build trust in a relationship that has none. so the collective blood pressure in our bilateral relationship is high. we are not talking with one another, we are talking past one

waking up in helsinki, president trump joined the president of finland for breakfast this morning before his big day. wasting no time he tweeted this morning, our relationship with russia has never been worse thanks to many years of u.s. foolishness and stupidity and now the rigged witch-hunt. the summit with russian president vladimir putin starts with a one-on-one and their interpreters are the only additional bodies in the room. russian foreign minister sergey lavrov told russia today that that's the way the americans wanted it. with no published agenda and no stated objectives, the president told cbs news he is going in with an open mind. >> nothing bad is going to come out of it and maybe some good will come out, but i go in with low expectations. >> reporter: on his way to helsinki, he tempered expectations tweeting from air force one, no matter how well i do at the summit, i would return to criticism that it wasn't good enough. >> good afternoon. >> reporter: after the department of justice indicted 12 russian agents last week, democrats called on trump to scrap the meeting saying

we're live here in finland. just behind us, president trump has been in a working breakfast with his finnish counterpart. during the meeting, we saw him thank the finnish president for hosting this summit with putin. president trump was was rather coy what he thought the outcome of that summit will be. >> mr. president. >> i'm going to see him in a little while. >> we'll do just fine. >> so earlier, however, mr. trump said that he would bring up the accusations of election meddling. he wrote in a tweet just a little while ago, the relationship with russia has never been worse and he blames that on what he calls u.s. foolishness and stupidity. now the rigged witch hunt. republican congressman trey gowdy tells cbs the issue is too important for the president to just take putin at his word. >> this is an attack on all of us. our elections are just that, margaret. they're our elections. republicans and democrats are free to fight among and with themselves. but that fight ends at the border. i would ask the president

the president of finland is playing host here as finland has done many times in the past. he will meet with each gentleman. there is a guest book signing, a ceremonial press meeting. then a meeting between the two men and maybe translators on both sides, could it really be just one translator and whose would it be? >> when trump did it with putin in the vietnam, that was just with putin. so probably be translators for both sides. >> not just a linguist. remember the translator's job is to interpret and that is it. if he doesn't have a note taker or another official, we won't have a record of what is said. >> there could be a recorder. >> that means -- and the russians will beat us to the punch like they always do. >> the joint press conference after ward. we're talking to the correspondent for "the economist" this car is a new car, and it is a little bigger than the beast. it was brought here specially. it was made in russia, it's a big deal, and he brought it here specially, this car. >> that reminds me of what we were talking about earlier. who has more muscular perspect
