john sopel, bbc news, rome. for the uk and france, the row over post—brexit fishing rights has continued to cause friction during the g20. speaking in rome, borisjohnson admitted that there's turbulence in relations between london and paris. the french are threatening to block some british boats from their ports next week. here's our political editor laura kuenssberg. old rivalries and fierce fights — rome's coliseum has hosted a few. but it's the uk and france this time both flexing their strength. france threatening to disrupt trade if their boats don't get more access to fish the channel. do you think that france is trying to punish the uk with this row over fishing permits? i think the things that unite france and the uk are far more important than things that divide us, laura, and i must say, we are a bit worried that france may be about to become in breach or is already in breach of trade and cooperation agreement that we struck. president macron is going around questioning your credibility. you've bee

the president has just scored a major win in rome. the leaders did endorse his call for a 15% global minimum tax. it's aimed at preventing large multinational companies from shifting profits around the world to try to avoid paying taxes. while leaders from most of the world's leading economies are in rome right now, two very big names, they are not here. they are missing. the russian president vladimir putin and china's leader, xi jinping. both cited covid-19 issues at home for skipping the trip. i want to bring in our senior international correspondent, sam kiley. he's joining us live from moscow right now. sam, putin just addressed the g20 summit via video. tell our viewers what he said. >> reporter: it's fairly short, wolf, and very much as flagged. i think the main thing to take away is that he seems to be genuinely trying to get the g20 and its members to agree, some kind of international protocol, which to my hose of us at groun level would allow mutual recognition of different nations, vaccines. this is what he said in his vide

i love rome. hope may spring eternal, reality does not. laura kuenssberg, bbc news, rome. here in glasgow no—one is underestimating the challenge facing the delegates over the coming days. and to confirm the urgent need for action the world meteorological organisation has just published its annual global climate report, stating that the past seven years have been the hottest on record with far—reaching repercussions for current and future generations. and in tomorrow's formal opening ceremony, the prince of wales will tell delegates here that "a vast military—style campaign" is needed worldwide to deal with global warming. 0ur science correspondent rebecca morelle has more details. a gloomy start to proceedings in glasgow, but there are high hopes for a sunnier outcome. in a socially distanced conference centre, a reminder we're still in a time of covid, as alok sharma formally takes the reins for what some say is the last chance to save the planet. floods, cyclones, wildfires, record temperatures — we know that our shared planet is changing for the worse. and we c

ah, begin the program in rome, where the u. s. and french presidents have met in person for the 1st time since their country's most serious diplomatic dispute in years show by the like, knowledge, the handling of a recent security agreement with australia and the u. k. had been clumsy. he says he was under the mistaken belief that france had been informed about the deal before it was announced. that agreement forced the cancellation of australia's multi $1000000000.00 deal to buy french submarines. we have no older or no more loyal. distant ally in france. it's been with us in the beginning reason, in part we came from what we did was quantity was done with a lot of grace. i was under the impression, certain things that happened that had but i mean to clear france read 3. and what's important is precisely to be sure that such a situation will not be possible for all future congo coordinations tango cooperation. but for me, what's important is that we built during the past week, some very concrete actions, node or to strengthen the

and as the un secretary general has said, all roads to glasgow lead through rome. if it's going to be a success in glasgow, it's going to depend what happens here in rome. and that's why the 1st glimpse of the final communicate that we've seen now is, is there a scene or a copy of the draft communicate is interesting. the g 20 saying they remain committed to capping global warming and then the quote is well below 2 degrees celsius. that's compared with pre industrial levels. now, 2 degrees, they say well below, but the us target is $1.00 degrees, so they're not committing to that. they say that they want to keep that within reach. they say they want meaningful and effective action to try and get to that. but they say that taking into account among the g 20 different pathways and approaches that suggest to me the plastic language showing that there are some disagreements around the g 20 table. the other key figure, there are lots of different metrics. of course, when it comes to the climate emergency, they're going to hear about in gloss, get one. the other key ones

wolf blitzer live from rome. see you soon. >>> happening now, president biden's test on the world stage is under way here in rome. as he kicked things off he made a striking admission to the french president of a quote, clumsy move by the united states. was it enough to heal their diplomatic rift? i'll ask the french ambassador to the united states who was in the room. the president also had deeply personal talks with pope francis. the two most powerful catholics in the world bonding over their shared faith and discussing some of the world's greatest challenges right now. welcome to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm wolf blitzer reporting live from the vatican, and you're in "the situation room." it's been a remacable day here at the vatican and in rome for president biden and all of us covering his visit. it is a little after midnight local time. the president is just hours away from the opening session of the g-20 summit. he's been warming up with some very high stakes diplomacy and ame

john sopel, bbc news, rome. let's get more detail on the pressure on iran to come back to the table and renegotiate the nuclear deal. earlier on i spoke to the iran security expert behnam ben taleblu from the foundation for the defence of democracies to discuss this pressure on iran to renegotiate the nuclear deal. i asked whether he thought iran was ready to sit down and discuss the agreement. the islamic republic has recently said that at the end of november would be joining nuclear talks, particularly with america's european partners in a bid to resurrect that 2015 nuclear deal known as thejcpoa, however their current ultra hard—line administration of ebrahim raisi in iran in the past few months has been rapidly escalating its nuclear programme, has been developing new nuclear facts on the ground, building on leverage it inherited from the outgoing rouhani government, and is likely now looking to trade those in for a win at the nuclear negotiating table. and given how urgent the west sees this problem and h

that was a meeting here in rome between the chinese foreign minister and the u. s. secretary of state. and that was important because this was the highest level meeting between the u. s. and china that has taken place since the beginning of the year was still being told is likely to be some sort of virtual summit between the 2 most powerful men in the world present. she and president biden before the end of the year, but certainly in the meeting that they had here in the last couple of hours, they said that they could work together on issues like me on my the climate have kind of storm north korea, iran, but a state department official said there was serious concerns about other issues close at home to china, places like taiwan in china and she, john and tibet, hong kong and east and sort of east and south china. see the u. s. opponent expressed its concern. that's about all those issues and about human rights in china. the 2 countries agreeing to work together. but knowing that on some issues they can work together and other issues. they have very, very differen

. >> and i'm jim sciutto live in rome, just yards from the border of vatican city. and, in front of the beautiful, the majestic st. peters basilica. moments ago, president biden and his motorcade left st. peters after meeting with pope francis, this on first day of a critical five-day diplomatic mission across europe. this, of course, his second international trip as president, as commander in chief. the president has a challenge here to convince allies that the u.s. can still lead, that the u.s. is truly back and ready to lead on the world stage on climate change. the world economy, the pandemic response, and the growing threat from authoritarian regimes around the world. this morning, we should note a deeply personal moment for this president. meeting with pope francis, of course, president biden the second u.s. president to be a catholic, someone who has a deep and long relationship with pope francis. this is the moment before they sat down for a closed door meeting that two men kept it light with smiles as they greeted each other, both laughing and joking. have

present in rome will do. of course there will be no presidency of china or russia, they are not coming, but the bulk of those who were in rome will be coming here to glasgow to take part in this summit. i want to talk about what he said there about procrastination, he said, we need to turn away from dirty fossil fuels, put fossil fuels to history, no question that the uk has been trendsetting in many of the objectives it set out in its net zero plan but there is reporting from friends of the earth that there are currently 40 new fossil fuel projects in the pipeline here in the uk, not all of them approved, but together they would amount to about 1.3 billion tonnes of carbon emissions. if you burn all that there is no way you would meet net zero. so what is the point in financing things like that if really what you have to do is leave it in the ground? that is what a lot of people are saying, why are we investing in these dirty technologies that we cannot use when we should put it into carbon capture which we
