Made with his counterpart, Boris Johnson. Mr. Trump praised him as the right man to help the u. K. Exit the e. U. By tend of october. The president predicted that the two would work out a trade deal when brexit is complete. And Boris Johnson heard the american leader say this about him. Do you have any advice from Boris Johnson on brexit . He needs no advice. Hes the right man of the job. Didnt make your predecessor happy but hes the right man for the job. Your onmessage there. Im very grateful. I know there will be some tough talks ahead. Theres a huge opportunity for the u. K. To penetrate the american market. The g7 leaders have been holding official working sessions on several important global issues. The u. S. President insisted on a special session to talk about the American Economy specifically. The president denied that any of his peers are pressuring him to tone down his trade war with china, despite deepening concerns it could trigger a xwloe global recession. Nic robertson is covering it all from france. We expect the president and shinzo abe to meet this hour. Lets talk about the meeting between mr. Trump and Boris Johnson. What was the nature of that discussion . It set the scene that Boris Johnson wants, that is a positive one, that he can get a good trade deal with a friendly partner in the white house. Its a message that he wants to send to the European Union, as well. That was what Boris Johnson wanted. He interjected a lot. You heard him just before, when President Trump was praising him, thanking President Trump. And saying that President Trump was on message. It is a tight race for Boris Johnson. There is no doubt about it. If President Trump is too effusive about him, that will count for Boris Johnson back home. And this particular president , it would not be looked upon favorably. But perhaps Boris Johnson may be overstepping the line in President Trumps eyes. We have yet to find out about that. When President Trump was asked that question, having not faced any criticism from any of the other leaders here, about his trade war with china. President trumps answer is here. And you hear Boris Johnson saying, actually, there was. Our country is doing really well. We have horrible trade deals. Im straight thiening them out. The biggest one is china. I congratulate the president on everything the American Economy is achieving. But in a sheeplike view on our trade war on the whole. We think that on the whole, where the u. K. Has profited massively in the last 200 years from free trade. Thats what we want to see. Were working to see that. Reporter caution from johnson, saying a sheeplike no note. This is a new relationship. And President Trump will be sitting down for a bilateral meeting with shinzo abe there. The u. S. Wants more to the Agriculture Market in japan. And abe, from his point of view, doesnt want to see any increased tariffs on the japanese Automotive Industry from the United States. That will be a point of discussion for them. One thing that is the important, as the u. K. Turns to the United States for trade, there are critics that say it leaves the u. K. Beholden to the United States in that arrangement. Its not just on trade. Boris johnson needs this good, strong relationship with President Trump to be able to hold up the potential of a strong trade deal, domestically, politically, because he may have elections to the European Union. Its a strong negotiating tactic for him. What is the price of that . There is pressure, the u. S. National security adviser, john bolton, was pressuring britain to back the United States and its stance on iran. That would include potentially pulling out of the jcpoa, the nuclear deal that britain is still a part of, even though the United States has withdrawn from it. And pressure on britain, as well, not to buy from huawei. The Prime Minister indicated that britain was prepared to do that. Early indications from johnsons government are, they will back the u. S. , at least in the straits of hormuz near iran and is reconsidering itself position on huawei. It exposes britain to taking sides, in the emerging china versus u. S. Economic cold war thats emerging in the world. Nic robertson live for us. Thank you. Well keep in touch. As with any meeting of world leaders, protesters turned out in force. Look at the live pictures from near the g7 summit. Protesters are demanding action, from globalization to the environment and economic policy. Police have yet to release figures on how many protesters were arrested on sunday. Cnn European Affairs commentator Dominick Thomas is with us to put all of this in perspective. Dominick joining from berlin. Boris johnson, the new role he has, he got to speak with the u. S. President and his thoughts on the trade wars at odds with mr. Trumps. But they seem to mange good at the table together. Who has more leverage in this relationship . Its clear and unambiguous that the United States, and donald trump, has more leverage, as the United Kingdom extricates itself from the European Union, if it does achieve brexit. It stands in a much weaker negotiating position on the global stage that we see this year. The obvious reference would be china. One can only imagine what wiit would be like when it deals with a smaller political power than in the United Kingdom. We see leaders at the g7, on the Global International stage, under scrutiny. Each of these leaders is thinking about their constituencies back at home. And thats especially the case for Boris Johnson, new Prime Minister, with the general election coming at some point in the near future. And every gesture is choreographed with that goal in mind. Another thing that came out of this meeting with Boris Johnson. President trump backing off the threat on sundays, after insisting he can use his executive power to prevent american firms from doing business in china. Trump saying, quote, i have no plan. Were getting along very well with china. Were talking. Keep in mind, a tweet mr. Trump labeled an enemy. What do you make of the 180 . At the g7, he laz to play things differently. And the g7 configuration has changed and he has more sympathizers around the table, such as Boris Johnson, the japanese Prime Minister, and the italian Prime Minister. They rurnd scrutiny, under the lens of the global audience. Theres tremendous concern about the stability of the Global Economy at this point. This plays into the brexit issue. But it also plays into the absolute agenda thats been set by macron, which is to think about Global Inequality and the role and the responsibility of these economic leading nations to address some of these questions. And president macron has structured the g7 meeting around these particular issues. Therefore, of course, trade wars, conflict and so on are tremendous concern to these leaders. The other question, whether words matter more or whether numbers and facts matter more. We know the u. S. President wanted more time to speak about the u. S. Economy, how its doing. The backdrop, of course, concerns and jitters about a possible global recession. The question here, as the president takes the world stage and talks about the American Economy, does that make a difference here, as were seeing these indicators that suggest there could be trouble abrewing. I think there is trouble abrewing and the leaders are aware of that. From the german situation, where chancellor merkel is under scrutiny for this. Emmanuel macron has come out of a complicated 18month period, with all sorts of issues to do with inequality in society. These will shape the italian elections and so on. What were used to seeing is a concerted discussion and consensus around the g7 leaders. And today, there are deep divisions with them, on everything from russia to iran to climate and so on. And so, the question of Global Security and Global Economic security is, of course, extremely important here. President trump has, in so many ways, disrupted this global order and particularly through his focus on prioritizing the interest of the United States and on bilateral deals, the kind of deals that Boris Johnson talked about, rather than greater multilateral action and coordination. Mr. Trump indicated he would like to invite russia to next years g7. Keep in mind the possible arms race between these two nations. Whats your read on mr. Trumps approach to russia . This is a complicated one, and divisive one at the g7. Yes, there is concerted work around iran, syria and so on and so forth. Lets take the United Kingdom position for Boris Johnson. We think back to the controversies in recent years, that the british publics perception of the Russian Federation and putin is negative. The European Union has complex and relationship with russia. The question of ukraine and the reasons why russia has been suspended from what was the g8 remain important issues on the agenda. The major question when it comes to europe, is that President Trump, systemically through his attacks on nato and the European Union, have been seeking to weaken that bond. And the european downon, the 27 of them, are united in seeing russia as a potential foe anded a adversary. A weaker europe is a benefit to his americafirst agenda. This is something there is little consensus at the g7 when it comes to trump and the other members of this group. Dominick thomas with perspective live for us in berl berlin.

Two different demonstrations takie ining place. On one side, protesters that continue to demand democratic liberty. And on the other side, supporters of the police. This comes one day after clashes between authorities and protesters. Andrew stevens at the prodemocracy protest. Kr Kristie Lu Stout. A lot of people taking part in this. Whats the scene now . We havent seen estimates of the crowd here. But the team here is estimating in the tens of thousands. And the protesters have come to the end point, which is actually past the official end point, the area which the police have given approval for them to gather together. The protesters move to somewhere else, that makes this an illegal gathering now. They should not be where they are gathering. This protest is taking on an ominous tone. The police sending out a note on facebook saying they will begin disbursal operations soon. Not an exact time but soon. Were just outside, george. Want to show you whats happening. The protesters are erecting what you can describe as flimsy barriers. They think the disbursal operations will start from this area. Theyre putting up small obstacles, to be honest. They have paving bricks on the ground here, stretching along here. A few bolts. Things which the police regularly clear, within a minute or whatever. Thats the frame that the protesters are preparing for police action. And theyre saying theyre going to stay here. As we said, weve seen tens of thousands of protesters coming out. Many, the majority of those, are families that have no interest in getting involved in confrontations with the police. What will happen over the next hour or so, is many of these will filter back home. They will have made their point, and have done their march and will appear. What is likely to happen, is well see the crowd splintering out. We are getting reports that one group of protesters is marching towards the local Police Station here. And that was, if you remember yesterday, the local Police Station in a different district of hong kong, that became the focal point for teargas disbersal operations by the police. Protesters are heading toward the Police Stations here in what is likely to be another confrontation. You cant quite hear it. But i can hear the chants of the people inside the park area, where theyre gathering. And you can see, theres plenty of umbrellas. Theres people moving towards this area. As i say, its becoming more ominous and the police are saying that it is time to move or face consequences. Andrew pointing out, it is becoming an illegal protest and illegal gathering. Well come back to you, andrew. Lets bring in Kristie Lu Stout at a different protest. This is for families who are frustrated. And we recently heard from the chief executive, carrie lam, who said, people are tired at this point. Yeah. Including the people that took part in this rally. At its peak, 400 people took part. It was organized by the police force. They were not here. They did not march to defend police tactics. Rather, after 12 weeks of protests and violent clashes, enough is enough. They were bearing banners and science, returning the police to the people. They want the Hong Kong Police to represent the needs and the safety priorment requirements o kong people. They wanted a political resolution for the ongoing crisis here. They have demands, among them, to set up an independent inquiry. And a political resolution to the crisis. They put those demands into the form of a petition letter and was delivered in person to two places. One, the Hong Kong Police headquarters. A representative came out and received the letter, much to the applause of those taking part. And another one they sent to carrie lam. No representative was there to receive the letter, it was tossed across the security fence. Kristie lu stout, thank you for the report. Well continue to stay in touch with you both. The french president , emmanuel macron, who is hosting the g7 summit this year, says he wants the amazon rain forest, the fires there, on the agenda. Keeping in mind, the fires are burning in brazil at the worst levels since 2013. Some of the countries attending the summit, support blocking a trade deal between the European Union and brazil until the country takes action on it.
