President Donald Trump President Donald TrumpU.S. President Donald Trump discussed hot-button issues like climate change, trade and migration in calls with German and Italian leaders on Monday, before a summit this week of the G20 leading economies that could expose sharp policy differences. A fractious first NATO summit with Trump also left European allies wondering where the military alliance goes next. Trump will hold separate meetings with various leaders in Hamburg, including host German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and a potentially difficult first meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. A little over one month ago, Trump said the United States was withdrawing from an international agreement aimed at reducing global carbon emissions that are blamed for climate change. TRUMP-PUTIN MEETINGRussia and the United States are still discussing the timing of the encounter between Trump and Putin, a Kremlin aide said on Monday.
