Trump, Merkel clash at NATO summit
US President Donald Trump is demanding that NATO allies "reimburse" Washington for the cost of defending the continent. (Photo: AFP/Denis Charlet) The two-day meet in Brussels is shaping up as the alliance's most difficult in years, with Europe and the US engaged in a bitter trade spat and Trump demanding that NATO allies "reimburse" Washington for the cost of defending the continent. Merkel shot back that Germany had the right to make its own policy choices, setting up an explosive one-on-one meeting with Trump later in the afternoon. European alliance members were braced for criticism from Trump on defence spending, but his blistering attack on Germany at a breakfast meeting with NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg took the summit by surprise. "Germany is a captive of Russia because it is getting so much of its energy from Russia," Trump said, taking particular aim at the proposed Nord Stream II gas pipeline, which he has previously criticised. "Everybody's talking about it all over the … [Read more...] about Trump, Merkel clash at NATO summit
Trump and Putin to stage long-awaited summit in Finland
Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin will hold their long-awaited first summit next month in the Finnish capital Helsinki, at what could prove a historic turning point in international relations. The July 16 head-to-head between the U.S. and Russian leaders will follow a NATO summit in Brussels that Washington's European partners fear will serve as another stage for Trump to berate them and scorn the Western alliance. Trump has long called for warmer ties with Moscow, but the talks come as Russia's relations with the West languish at levels not seen since the Cold War. Asked about the upcoming summit, Trump told reporters accompanying him on a trip to Wisconsin: "We're looking forward to it." "If we could all get along it would be great. The world has to start getting along." The meeting will likely provoke criticism for the U.S. leader at home, where investigators are probing possible collusion between his presidential campaign team and Moscow. Russia's annexation of Crimea and … [Read more...] about Trump and Putin to stage long-awaited summit in Finland
Deal struck for Putin-Trump summit, Helsinki possible venue
Moscow and Washington struck a deal on Wednesday to hold a summit soon between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump, a move likely to worry some U.S. allies and draw a fiery reaction from some of Trump’s critics at home. Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri Ushakov, speaking after Putin met U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton in the Kremlin, said the summit would take place in a mutually convenient third country and that several more weeks were needed to prepare for it. Moscow and Washington will announce the time and place of the summit on Thursday. In Washington, Trump said their meeting likely would take place after a July 11-12 summit of NATO leaders he is due to attend. Trump confirmed that Helsinki was a possible site. Other officials said the Russians were pushing for the summit to be in the Austrian capital of Vienna. Trump listed Syria and Ukraine among the many subjects he said they would discuss. His list did not include warnings from … [Read more...] about Deal struck for Putin-Trump summit, Helsinki possible venue
