rob mcbride so rob the two leaders have been meeting for about an hour now what can we expect from day too. that's right there's a lot of expectation for you as you might expect what is going to be produced especially this the second most important day of this summit they have begun talks as you said within the past hour or so we don't know what. the results have been so far there was no statements at the start of those talks we understand it's simply a one on one meeting between the two leaders but if smiles are anything to go by then all the observers say that things are going well. these talks are taking place at the state guesthouse the first round of talks symbolically took place at the headquarters of the workers' party of career tuesday afternoon again those talks apparently went well denuclearization was discussed but as far as progress being made one official said that it was more of a broad discussion more of a chatter as he put it and you've got to say at this stage in the summit a chat won't do it and people are really looking for concrete agreements concrete proposals to come out of that we are going to get a sense of anything concrete a joint statement that is going to be given a press event by the two leaders a time for that hasn't been given yet that's later on today wednesday when we should see what the outcome of all this has been meanwhile all of the photo opportunities the other events of this summit are going according to plan they're going a pace we have heard tuesday evening banquet the music event yes with k. pop stars involved that in fact over around by a couple of hours lunch time today wednesday we are expecting the two leaders to go to a restaurant in pyongyang that's famous for its cold noodles it is apparently a must go to place on any visit to pyongyang fully as you say we're expecting a press event between the two leaders which will carry here live on al-jazeera the future of u.s. north korea talks hang in the balance of course and could be affected by this summit what kind of reactions are we seeing from both sides. clearly everybody following this very closely to see what comes out and how it affects them the u.s. state department has given a guarded welcome to this event wants to see results but they have said that any statements that come out of this really have to be verifiable and meaningful any moves towards denuclearization really have have to be genuine ones the concern from the americans is that amid all of this bon ami and the smiles and the handshakes the pressure is really being lifted off north korea the you are u.s. has been sponsoring a debate at a u.n. security council where they have been accusing the russians basically violating sanctions of having a ship to ship transfers of fuel oil and sea and so on and it it's difficult to have to remember and it's easy to forget at times that this is one of the most sanctioned countries in the world and it seems as though the people who are most forgetful are possibly the russians and the chinese so the americans are concerned about that as far as the north koreans are concerned they obviously have been welcoming this visit they have been heaping praise on their south korean guests in particular moon j.n. but interestingly there were echoes of the past in the copy of right on the scene when it's the official newspaper of north korea at the start of this summit choose day they have accused the americans saying that they are to blame wholly for the stalling for the hold up in the nuclear negotiations between north korea and the u.s. thank you very much for now rob mcbride live for us in seoul. you know the news china has followed through with its threat to retaliate against amazes us time son chinese goods further escalating their trade war maging says it's imposing levies on another sixty billion dollars of american made items up to us russian donald trump announce increased tag of some two hundred billion dollars of chinese products trump says he's open to talking to beijing but won't let it take advantage of the u.s. we're doing a very good job with china and china has been taking advantage of the united states for a long time and that's not happening anymore we can't let that happen and i have a great relationship with president xi he's a friend of mine but we can't you know i've been telling him we can't let it happen so we may make a deal at some point but right now we just impose two hundred billion dollars or twenty five percent and if there's a retaliation against our farmers and our industrial workers our ranchers if any of that goes
