Der Vorwurf gegen ihn: Er soll Ende der 1980er-Jahre die Skulptur vom Lieblingsbildhauer des Führers aus der DDR in den Westen geschmug...

Stirred by the tweet that trump issued earlier on in his visit and now it appears maybe they're getting closer but when trump down played the importance of the missile launch that did not go down well with tokyo because here it is a big deal. stand by. let me go back to ivan watson. we're keeping an eye on the podiums where donald trump and shinzo abe are going to be giving a press conference we believe in a short amount of time. what do we expect from that press conference? >> we have already gotten a bit of a precursor where president trump and the japanese prime minister said they would be ...
