let's turn to nbc news white house correspondent kelly o'donnell covering the g7. she joins us from france, the president spoke this morning and said talks with china are just now going to start getting serious. >> reporter: well, thcis was a big unexpected development. the president during a meeting with the egyptian president telling reporters that china contacted the u.s. trade delegation overnight and said they want to go back to the negotiating table, and president trump put a positive spin on that saying that it could be very good for the world, and he signalled that this could be a breakthrough moment. of course, all the final steps have to move forward. he of course is coming at this after there has been all the volatility that you just laid out, and the president saying that he believes that this is a real opening for a serious negotiation toward getting a deal. at the same time, it comes after the announcement of a u.s. japan trade deal here of course. there's still more steps to be finalized there, but a big announcement nonetheless that will be good for especially american beef

joining me now from france is nbc news white house correspondent kelley o'donnell and shannon. good to see you. so, kelly, the question that prompted that sales pitch whether or not he can reassure americans he's not looking to profit off the presidency. did he really answer it? >> not directly. in fact, he almost did the thing that would trigger a lot more scrutiny. he sold the idea and he gave many of the attributes of his program and the property and the qualities as if he were back in his former role, of course, the president does not operate the trump properties now but he still has a financial interest. in the time since the president made the comments, there's already pushback. not only are people questioning this idea, senator ron wyden of oregon, the top democrat on the finance committee in the senate is saying he is going to ask the treasury secretary for more information about this and says under no circumstances should the g7 on behalf of the united states be held in a trump-owned property. that that's the height of sell dealing. he's going to have a push on this. so it raises more questions

france demanding more action to prevent climate change. the two-day event kicked off with a dinner hosted by french president emmanuel macron who wanted to make climate change the focus. as nbc's kelly o'donnell reports. president trump insisted the global economy top the age as well. >> president trump comes with a focus on trade and his fight with china. that is unsettling to many of the other leaders who consider that a threat to the global economy. president trump also insisted gnat dialogue here include a session on the global economy. while president macron had really focused on other issues wanting the group to talk about international security, climate change, iran, the digital transformation and inequality, social justice and economics. one of the biggest changes, they won't even attempt to have what's known as the communique. where the leaders would sign a skroint agreement at the end of the meeting on things they have agreed that would come out of this. that's not going to happen. so there are question marks about what can be accomplished. but there are serious issues to
