on wednesday, nato secretary-general downplayed reports of tensions with trump even as he said nato members were prepared to increase the lee terry spending. >> of course president trump has a very direct language, a message on defense spending, but we all agree. amy: speaketh to reporters as nato talks wrapped up today, trump touted the visit as a succccess and boasted about fute weapon sales to nato allies. pres. trump: the united states makes by far the best military equipment in the world, the best jets, the best missiles from the best guns, the best everything. we make, by far -- that is one thing i guess i assumed her prior to taking office, but i really learned since being sosident, our equipment is much better than anybody else's equipment. shen you look at our companie -- the agreement we make is so far superior to everybody wants to buy our equipment. can they make it? because they are doing very well. can they make it for so many people? so we are helping some of those countries get online and buy the best equivalent. amy: meanwhile, anti-war groups protested outside the meeting

said about nato 7 kind of thing. what has trump said about nato?bout nato? well, he has made it clear all the way along that he is a bit ambivalent about nato. he believes it is always another case of america having to ride to the rescue. and he doesn't see the allies, the western allies, as having the same weight in the organisation. so i think he has said, as well, remember, that article five, the one that says that everybody will help everybody else in the event of some attack on one nato member, it is an attack on all, that he wouldn't necessarily honour that he wouldn't necessarily honour that either. so many, many questions about whether he really values nato, andi about whether he really values nato, and i think what people will be looking at in terms of the discussions today is, is he going to say what is necessary to keep nato isa say what is necessary to keep nato is a very firm organisation which really has a role to play, or will he say something that exacerbates the divisions within nato? as i say, with donald trump, you never know. he

president trump has called on nato allies to double the amount they've committed to spend on defence,rom 2% to 4% of national income. mr trump was commenting, after he clashed with the german chancellor, angela merkel, at the nato summit in brussels, singling out her country for not paying its share and accusing berlin of being a "captive" to moscow because of its reliance on russian energy. our europe editor katya adler sent this report. such careful choreography — not showy, but precise. nato boasts that it is in control and ready to take on modern—day threats — cyber—crime, cross—border terror, concerns about russia. but there was one big element today over which nato had no control at all — donald trump, a man determined to shake up this alliance, which has guaranteed european security since world war ii. thank you very much. thank you. the morning here started with a jolt. germany is totally controlled by russia, because they were getting from 60% to 70% of their energy from russia, and a new pipeline. a blistering and not entirely factually correct attack by donald trump on nato

mark: the nato secretary-general is giving a news conference. it seems that president trumping nato increase the spending targets to 4% according to bulgaria. also inviting macedonia to begin membership to the big precursor to the nato meeting, trump the rating his former colleagues, for not spending enough on defense and that the u.s. seems to be taking on the bulk of the nato defense. we will continue to monitor that news conference. this is bloomberg. ♪ stocks declining on this, on the stoxx 600, falling less by the trade industry group sectors. oil and gas -- these have been the industries that has been hit hardest during this conflict between the u.s. and china. trade supply chains are interlinked these days. the gauge, the stoxx 600, down for the first day and seven after the best run since march through yesterday. kleiner, big stock to -- stock decline or. look at that -- absolutely huge decline today per generic competition hurting drugs to treat dependence on opioids. losingal guidance -- market share as it competes in .enerics it began distribution in the united st

will trump and putin use them meeting in helsinki to arrange secret deals and undermine nato. testin barker at the june g seven meeting trump rejected the final joint communique after already actually having signed it saying it essentially in a show of strength that was designed to impress kim jong il and who he was then traveling on to meet would you say the tirades we've been hearing from president trump here are actually largely directed at impressing vladimir putin and will they do so i think that's part of it but he clearly has an affinity for putin and he has an affinity for russia going back to the one nine hundred eighty s. you know he's looking to come out of this meeting with some kind of optical deal if not a real deal. you know we'll see but the truth is this administration has up sanctions on russia it has delivered lethal assistance to ukraine so on the actual substance there is a much more hawkish position russia than. before although the rhetoric is not reflecting that and christian tripper you said in your opening statement that trunk could sell out the allianc

but more importantly trump has often questioned about nato and so. the cold war has been over for some time. i mean. it's coming from terrorism and china so i actually see trump's lack of commitment to this cold war security architecture being that his strength could make him more prepared to strike a deal as a multiple world emerges and this effectively undermines nato however i don't think it comes to russia bearing gifts i think it's more a different priorities. i see with trade the w t o. and of the day it's all about money and i guess his main concern is. this how empires and when will this not heard from the court to have heard the court begins to crumble ok well you know markets i think i actually think this is part of trying strategy because this is the achilles heels of the nato alliance they don't want to pay their way they want the americans to do it and trump is saying no more of that and we have the prospect and i think it's actually kind. genius in a way you know he's going to meet with putin afterwards in helsinki and everyone is trembl

trump came with a resolution, a strong majority saying that the senate supports nato. >> that is right. perhaps they have a donald trump problem in nato. at the history of nato, in the 1990's -- in the 1960's, 1970's, a public debate on where nato should go and how they should develop the strategic outreach. nato tot new for discuss where to go and its future. what is new, the way, the style the american president throws into nato. combined with his possible collusion with russia, combined with this outlook on the summit with vladimir putin, of course creates doubt. it is not nato being in danger to be dissolved, the u.s. in general is still supporting it that we have a problem with the u.s. president. >> your opening statement implies you think the problem goes beyond u.s. president alone. you refer to the threat from within. what do you mean? >> president trump is just a symptom of something not just happening in the united states but across the nato space. i do rose and of trust in democratic institutions and in democracy. a return to after no nationalism, isolationism -- f no natio

katya: a blistering and not entirely factually correct attack by donald trump on nato ally germany for its plan to build a gas pipeline to russia. pres. trump: we are supposed t protect you against russia, but they are paying dollars to russia and that is very inappropriate.er katya: the gn chancellor was mentally prepared for donald trump. her reply was swift. chancellor merkel: i lived in -- i myself experienced living in part of germany when it was thcupied by the soviet union, but i'm happ germany is united in freedom so that we can make our own independent policies and decisions. katya: so what does this all mean? is nato, the cornerstone of european secity, falling apart before our eyes? well, not quite. the u.s. remains ainvolved as ever in nato missions, and donald trump blows hot a as cold when it comes to this alliance. but he did stand his foot about -- stamp his foot about his favorite nato bugbear, military spending, a message above all for europe. you want u.s. production, he insists?tion, he you start coughing up a lot more for defense. nato has an military sing target o

we are going to start with president trump in brussels, for day two of the nato summit. it has been a highly contentious affair for president trump to say the least, as he continues to attack allies with a protection racket, to describe the involvement in the alliance. he said presidents have been trying unsuccessfully for years to get germany and other rich nato nations to pay more toward their protection from russia. they pay only a fraction of their cost. the u.s. pays 10s of billions of dollars to much to subsidize europe and loses big on trade. and in a follow-up, tweeting that germany wants "protection from rush a-- from russia," attendees repeated that nato nations need to pay more for defense and germany was too dependent on russia. >> during that session, trump told allies they must increases the amount of gdp toward defense to 4%. that doubles the 2% target that is set for 2024. and not 2025, as the president tweeted. and the president is now demanding that allies meet the 2% -- 3% of gdp toward defense per the pentagon. not the 4.2% figure that trump inaccurate

nato? still, trump joined nato leaders in signed a joint communique with sharp words for putin and part said russia's challenging the order destabilizing ukraine, violating international law and attempting to undermine our institutions and sow disunity and trump signed on considering he rarely criticizes russia and walked away from the g7 meeting last month without signing that communique. plenty of smiles and hand shakes, too. as first lady melania trump accompanying the president on the first stop of a seven-day european tour. >> very good, beautiful. >> reporter: now, the president and the first lady still at the dinner here in brussels this evening. meeting with those world leaders, jake. fascinating to know what the dinner conversation actually was. of course, vladimir putin is not here. russia not a member of nato but he is looming large at this summit, jake. of course, their summit in helsinki on monday. jake? >> jeff zeleny in brussels for us, thanks so much. let's chat about this. susan glasser, "new yorker" staff writer and new global affairs writer. welcome to cnn. >> thanks. >> l

nato partners. so, president trump pushing that point. ns stoltenberg, secretary-general of nato, not really expecting to have this put in his face over breakfast on camera right at the beginning of this summit. everyone here was expecting it to be rocky, but perhaps not this rocky. stoltenberg saying look, the key thing here is that we have unity. we have differences, but we can work them out as we have in the past. and the reason he's saying that is because he believes, like many of the other nato leaders here, that russia, president putin is watching this space here right now for the next couple of days. any divisions, he likes to see those divisions. and of course, the nato leaders here worried because president trump is going on to meet prz putin next, and they don't know what he's going to say to him. >> all right, president trump wasting no time taking that message to nato allies. nic robertson in brussels, thanks very much. >> so, germany and european allies will not take the president's remarks lightly. senior international corres

which is and nato under mr trump is strong and he's got inch stronger last year mr trump agreed to the accessions to nato of months and i quote some people laughed at that but these people don't understand the significance of that now that montenegro is in nato in nato that means nato it's now this so moscow of the h. react to c. and soon macedonia will apply and then ukraine would apply the trump of the markets let me go let me go to ted in oxford but there'd have been what you just said there are a lot of other people are saying that he wants to tweak the nato alliance not dismantle it i mean you know angela merkel for example the relationship that trump has with angela merkel not very good we know that there is a he wants a review of the number of american troops that are in germany finding it out what you know it's seventy plus years after the end of the second world war there is what thirty five thousand troops there are you saying the same thing about south south korea and we have you know it's not about nato it's also about trade relations and it seems to me that i can i guess i

president donald trump trekking to live nato if other member states and immediately boost defense spending that's the question in brussels ofter trump on the a new barrage of criticism. and u.s. allies on the last day of the nato summit yet despite the tough once again communicate was a sign that includes criticizing the russian occupation of crimea and formally inviting macedonia to join the alliance a move that is sure to anger russia as neda continues its expansion into eastern europe. the president trump struck an aggressive stance towards nature throughout the summit according to question the entire alliance and alleging that germany was too close how to close relationship with russia something german chancellor angela merkel was quick to reject have a listen to what she said. germany is a calculus for her which they should work to get rid of their call to get rid of the nuclear they're getting so much of the oil that. russia i think is something that they are still look at it is very appropriate you're right we should appropriate i don't know what you can do about it but it certainly

commitment to its nato allies look to the shaky is this even before the summit had started president trump used his breakfast with nato secretary general to attack his allies focusing on one in particular germany is totally controlled by russia because they were getting from sixty to seventy percent of their energy from russia and a new pipeline and you tell me of that's appropriate because i think it's not and i think it's a very bad thing for later and i don't think it should have happened and i think we have to talk to germany about it the secretary general looked taken aback maybe it's the incident in my nation but the president kept up his extraordinary attack but germany as far as i'm concerned is captive to russia because it's getting so much energy from russia so we're supposed to protect germany but they're getting their energy from russia chancellor merkel who's just survived a bruising political battle at home had this response to this fresh assault. that's been tied to its months i have myself witnessed that parts of germany were controlled by the soviet union and i am very hap

are carrying the nato communique they supported and they didn't change a thing so donald trump did not want the two percent goal that we just heard about in that report from catherine martin's anchored as a binding goal and there remains an aim that the different nato member states are pursuing and so that's good news for nato but with donald trump you never know this should be the easier day but if you look at the tweets from last night he might have another surprise for us if things go as planned then today they're going to meet ukraine and georgia two potential future nato allies although there is nothing immediate in the cards here and they will talk about their mission in afghanistan they have pledged to continue to support afghanistan and the afghan troops with their training mission beyond twenty twenty so that's the plan normally the summit should wrap up around midday but as i said before with the u.s. president you never know and max you know they didn't anchor the two percent in the communique but trump did say he wants allies to double their defense spending to four percent

we will have full analysis of trump's tough talk at the nato summit with victor david hanson. meanwhile former fbi attorney, a parent trump haider lisa page, refusing to testify before congress. mark meadows and alan dershowitz will be here to tell us how much trouble page is n. raymond arroyo joins us with the story of a comedian who bamboozled sarah palin and former vice president dick cheney into doing an interview by assuming an unbelievable identity. you are not going to want to miss it. new york city sanctuary mayor is accused of -- i love this -- illegally crossing the border. ben shapiro will react but first. trump calls out the real russian conclusion. that is the focus of tonight's angle. i don't know about you but i surely enjoyed seeing the grim faces on some of those other cable networks today after president trump's meeting within the nato counterparts in brussels. it was obvious that pundits and writers wrote their scripts long before air force one even touched down in belgium. of course, trump was going to be an american wrecking ball, a bowl and a china shop, f

treaty on nato alliance mutual protection this was trump before he flew to brussels i see nato and i'm going to tell nato you got to set paying your bills united states. anywhere from seventy percent to protect your. and that's fine of course they kill us or train they kill a sort of other things to make it impossible to do business in europe yet they come into they sell their mercedes and that b.m.w. to us so we have one hundred fifty one billion dollars in trade deficits with. and on top of that they tell us what they know well joining me now is one of team trump advisers john help by hey john thanks for coming back on so will donald trump get the nato leaders to stump up the cash for funding of the organization well kate bailey hutchinson who is our ambassador to the e.u. has said that they're starting to but you know to criticize trump as if he's the first one in nine hundred ninety four congressman bernie franks actually had an amendment to get rid of nato when i somehow or finish his term as president he made the comment and he served he's basically the

president trump said he was coming here from united nato. these same nations you would expect to be applauding president trump had he faced down vladimir putin and had he told the russian leader not to meddle in u.s. elections because putin has meddled in the german elections and chancellor angela merkel. he had immediate meddled in the controversy. angela merkel came in for heavy criticism for donald trump before he got to helsinki. the fact there is silence tells you a huge amount about what president trump's nato allies feel. if he cannot trust his intelligence services, how can he trust his allys? >> ni -- allies? >> nic, thank you. >>> and president trump answering a question about whether the ball is now in russia's court on syria by handing president trump a soccer ball. the world cup wrapped up in russia and putin said to trump, the ball is now in your court. the u.s. will host the tournament in 2026. president trump said the ball can go to barron and tossed it to the first lady. graham said i would check the soccer ball for listening

reaffirming the two percent spending goal from twenty fourteen and that is the official line of nato tonight trump maintains that more defense spending is necessary to make nato a fairer alliance and with that in mind of what you take a listen to what german chancellor angela merkel said today about the reasons for increasing spending only twenty in this we began making changes long we're doing this for our soldiers but also of course for the alliance we're also doing this in light of an altered security situation the need for it was made particularly clint by the attack on ukraine and the annexation of crimea. now there we see americal intro see very different things and you've written this detention i'll bet not since the one nine hundred seventy s. and eighty's is anyone got nato was wrong and donald truong was the missing. i think he's missing that a couple of things first of all the role of the united states and europe you know this is a strategic role this is a role that is good both for the u.s. and for the europeans it is a stabilizing force also in european politics and has been there sin

and nato for trump to attack the pipeline now. that that's a lot of questions there are also other members of nato who will also benefit from this pipeline and we should point out it's not operational yet it's still not construction phase so and president trumps figures were wrong germany does not get seventy percent of the tender g. from russia so i haven't seen quite enough fact checking on that again this is not an issue that comes up officially at nato because they try to keep issues separate from security but of course with twenty two of the nato members also european union members where energy is an official issue it's discussed on the sidelines and i hear that you know it does come up but it is not come up as an official agenda item at nato and own. he's got to remember that was with president trump you've got to look at business interests and the u.s. would very much like to export more l.n.g. liquefied natural gas to europe and it has started doing so so this could be you know something where president trump is would like

the times, trump tells nato to double your money, or i quit, almost. he'll be selling to the nato countries, you're fired! we knew from his tweets and we knew from his previous, whether it is the g7 and the trudeau debacle. what has stunned tory —— angela merkel —— what has stunned theresa may and allies, he has doubled the spending, 296 allies, he has doubled the spending, 2% to 4% and that is obviously a huge increase and one that most countries do not want to go ahead with the. france is 1.8, 1.9% and has a target of 2% by 2025. at the point is, whether it is britain or france, well france doesn't certainly think it is just about a percentage of your gdp, it is about putting troops on the ground and france is doing that repeatedly and are very consistent. it is also about france wanting that money, not just to go on various things for nato, but infrastructure and on equipment and also we know that president macron, is that he very much believes that the eu must honour anyway, not just because much believes that the eu must honour anyway, notjust bec

this market well now the military industrial complex defense stocks on the rise is all that is to trump's nato meeting on thursday. that was probably the main driver why we saw quite a spike in the stocks of companies like lockheed martin raytheon or also boeing which by the way gets almost all of their revenue from the broader defense industry donald trump believes that he made a point that nato members should basically immediately paid two or per cent of g.d.p. for the defense and actually increase the spending in the next couple of years to four percent of g.d.p. of that's realistic if it's going to happen remains to be seen but at least donald trump and investors believe so and that's why those stocks were among the biggest gainers here on wall street just have to see where the trump gets what he wants call it almost street thank you frank. i could always highest court has upheld a claim of multi-billion dollar damages against oil companies chevron that's for decades of rain forest damage the court saying indigenous people have a right to compensation for oil spills like contaminated groun

mr mickelson what do you make of that as a member of nato is donald trump out to destroy. i don't believe. think that nato is. the same way in the interest of the united states as it's for european allies and seventy years are the best example of all these alliance to get the stability and security not only in europe but also for the united states i haven't met any of the us both bullet the shins or from bent or going to the state department or even from and i see who could share of this viewpoint and there we when we look at what kind of job has been done so far for brussels summit then here we are on the same day we've all america american allies mr michaels and donald trump is reported to have said that is as. i want to get this right here it is as bad as laughter so what do you make of that. you know mr trump has tweeted said. you know promise during campaign different issues but to be honest of course we would like to see what will happen next week in in proselytism for us looking from mr o'neill from tightly to prime montes the unity among the allies these is what we

the chancellor speaking there at the end of the nato summit at the start of the nato summit president trump had some tough words for germany calling berlin out for being what he described as too reliant on russian gas and urged nato to look into the matter well to help us assess the state of bilateral ties between the u.s. and germany want to turn to u.s. political analyst james been the go search think you so much for joining us the two very tumultuous days at the nato h.q. mr trump going after a germy saying it is controlled by russia did he really mean what he said or was he just playing hardball with the strategy here. i believe that he's trying to play strong hardball in order to encourage people to act and in that sense he was right and he is chief of that on the other hand that bullying that that kind of tough talk actually undermines his ability or undermines their leader's ability to go back to their publics and convince them that they need to do more spending and more activity for nato. how much bad blood is there or how damaged our bilateral relations when you undermine the trust

nato. much stronger than it was two days ago. president trumpg me to a stronger, richer and he says it is thanks to his contribution. the pressure from the american president. he said he put on more pressure than any president before him. nato agreed in 2014 to increase its defence spending. president trump says they are not going fast enough. he said that has now changed. we will be to hear from other leaders and the nato alliance to hear the reaction. he also made very clear that in the next summit he will attend, when he goes to helsinki next week, when he meets president putin, he said i am not meeting and a friend or enemy. i am meeting a competitor. before he goes to helsinki, he will be heading to london. a ring of steel goes around the american ambassador house in london was being called a working row in a state visit. many will mark their opposition. the president is likely to travel mostly by helicopter. a giant inflatable blimp in the shape ofa giant inflatable blimp in the shape of a baby will of over westminster. we made a baby beca

you know you've also got to remember that there are up there are countries inside nato who appreciate what president trump has done he has pushed other has pushed countries to spend more and that's something that nato itself wanted it's something that the countries who do spend two percent would like to see their counterparts do so it's not everyone who doesn't like what president trump is saying i think that the two percent issue has sort of been like letting a genie out of a bottle though it was useful for a while it was useful for nato to have the united states you know harping on about this over and over now it's just gotten too big and it's creating it's creating division between allies but you know there are some countries that think that president trump professor you know performed a useful task in making this such an obsession for for a long time now. i think that by the end of tomorrow if he hasn't revokes the communique like he did at the g seven meeting nato will still be breathing a sigh of relief and say that all of these things that they agreed are a success they wish president trump would s
